Timing, new members
<phila> Jitao: Introduces himself...
<kerry> jitao? say hello?
<LarsG> yes
<phila> kerry: Jitao is from the Chinese Academy of Sciences
jitao: from the Chinese Academy of Science
<Frans> I think an introduction by e-mail is OK too?
use case document
<Alejandro_Llaves> latest version
[13]http://w3c.github.io/sdw/UseCases/SDWUseCasesAndRequirement
s.html
[13] http://w3c.github.io/sdw/UseCases/SDWUseCasesAndRequirements.html
kerry: editors will show us what the document looks like and
plans to complete
<Alejandro_Llaves> +q

s.html
[14] http://w3c.github.io/sdw/UseCases/SDWUseCasesAndRequirements.html
frans: document still in development. core is list of use cases
(complete except for two complex ones) and requirements
... document introduction is fairly complete as well.
... comments invited on Chapters 1-4
... ACTION: review use cases that each submitted
... focusing now on requirements and relation to the use cases
Alejandro_Llaves: also looking to cross-reference requirements
and deliverables
<SimonCox> +q
Alejandro_Llaves: mailing list discussion on filtering and
refining requirements is useful
<cperey> what is link to the spreadsheet to which Chris is
referring?
ChrisLittle: will send an update on requirements from their use
cases. Also need to clarify some more obscure key words /
phrases
<Alejandro_Llaves> link to spreadsheet

kerry: some definitions are in my head and need to be
contributed...
<jtandy> I think that all use case contributors should go
through and suggest requirements that fit ... I will do so for
my two UCs

<SimonCox> -q
Frans: document is still very much in process
kerry: any comments on the structure and approach of the
document?
<kerry> acj jtandy
<SimonCox> +q
<Frans> A clarification: especially the requirements and
linking ucs and reqs are a work in progress
jtandy: the cross-references seem to work well in the document.
Requirements probably are not complete yet.
<cperey> 15 requirements is still a lot! Very rich set of
things on which to work for years to come
SimonCox: more requirements coming?
Frans: probably yes, more requirements and therefore more
cross-links
JoshLieberman: will the requirements include those that may not
be essentially spatial but not well covered elsewhere?
<kerry> +q
Frans: some of the "non-functional" requirements may be
included among these.
<Zakim> phila, you wanted to answer Josh on non-spatial Reqs
phila: "non-spatial" requirements should be documented in
document, but also communicated to the Data on the Web group as
well.
<ChrisLittle> +1 phil's comments
<kerry> ack
kerry: example?
<ChrisLittle> +1 non-func requirements section
<AndreaPerego> About requirements overlapping with DWBP ones,
some are recorded here:
[17]https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/BP_Requirements
[17] https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/BP_Requirements
<SimonCox> @phila: Are SSN requirements non-spatial?
<phila> No, they're in scope of this WG, SimonCox
JoshLieberman: appropriate links / identifiers may be an
example of non-spatial but essential for our use cases
<SimonCox> Interesting ... arguably much 'data' is generated by
sensors
ClemensPortele: may be overlap with Data on the Web
requirements, but need clarification in our context
<Zakim> jtandy, you wanted to ask about how we will collect
example datasets to support the use casess?
jtandy: real data examples can be very useful in delineating
use cases. Is there a plan for collecting datasets?
kerry: definitely want them. include with use case on wiki if
they are available
jtandy: some may be quite large
<cperey> very important point. Yes about Phil's point
<Frans> Can we have a wiki page listing datasets?
<cperey> that the use of data demonstrates rigor and tests the
robustness of solutions
phila: access to datasets shows a rigor that is very useful.
Also, the DotW group will also be meeting in Japan.
Note: lots of support for datasets attached to usecases
<Frans> We could ask for more links to datasets in use cases?
eparsons: make sure requirements are linked back to specific
use cases to keep them "grounded" and help with prioritization
<AndreaPerego> +1 to req ranking
<jtandy> +1 to eparsons
<kerry> +1
<Adila> +1 to Frans
Frans: some use cases have links to resources, even datasets.
we should encourage more links to datasets.
<eparsons> +1 to frans
<jtandy> +1
<ChrisLittle> +1
<Zakim> jtandy, you wanted to ask about putting datasets on
github repo
kerry: how to handle datasets?
<Alejandro_Llaves> +1 to Jeremy
jtandy: useful to manage datasets on GitHub and link from wiki
or use case document
<ChrisLittle> +1 to github suggestion
<billroberts> +1 to github
<ebremer> +1 to github suggestion

https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Working_Use_Cases#.22101.22_Smart_City_Use-cases
kerry: should probably bring SSN use cases over directly, since
SSN update is a deliverable here
<Alejandro_Llaves> +q on collections of use cases
<jtandy> +1 to kerry ... the SSN use cases need to appear here
...
<Zakim> Alejandro_Llaves, you wanted to comment on collections
of use cases
<SimonCox> [sorry - my battery is about to run out]
Alejandro_Llaves: Frans idea to select out the SSN / IoT use
cases that suffice to tie in requirements.
kerry: selection may apply for IoT use cases, but SSN use cases
are already somewhat filtered to support SSN requirements
<kerry> ACTION: payam to summaries reqs from 101 use cases
[recorded in
[20]http://www.w3.org/2015/04/22-sdw-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-20 - Summaries reqs from 101 use
cases [on Payam Barnaghi - due 2015-04-29].
<kerry> ACTION: kerry to check ssn use cases and requirements
[recorded in
[21]http://www.w3.org/2015/04/22-sdw-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-21 - Check ssn use cases and
requirements [on Kerry Taylor - due 2015-04-29].
<SimonCox_> [fresh battery!]
<SimonCox_> When I get back with voice I want to ask question
about implied extension of scope for SSN and Time deliverables
Frans: good practice has been for the whole use case group to
evaluate each case, but IoT collection was too large to do this
with. Summaries would be helpful.
<kerry> ACTION: payam to summarise 101 use cases [recorded in
[22]http://www.w3.org/2015/04/22-sdw-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-22 - Summarise 101 use cases [on
Payam Barnaghi - due 2015-04-29].
Kerry: action-22 is to both summarize and check requirements
for IoT use cases.
<billroberts> sorry all, have to leave early to catch a train.
Will check minutes
kerry: IoT use cases are not connected into the requirements
yet.
<Zakim> SimonCox, you wanted to ask question about implied
extension of scope for SSN and Time deliverables
<kerry> +1
<Alejandro_Llaves> +q on scope of reqs
SimonCox: two deliverables are based on existing W3C docs, with
potentially expanded scope. Concern to define the scope more
precisely by examining requirements so time doesn't inflate
indefinitely
<jtandy> I do think that it is important that we manage the
scope of the deliverables going forward
kerry: should scope those two deliverables based on most
important requirements
... should be able to estimate "bang for buck" in scope
<Zakim> Alejandro_Llaves, you wanted to comment on scope of
reqs
<SimonCox_> For example: 'sampling features' is an important,
relatively discrete extension to SSN. But may be delegated to a
separate project (though in practice we have found that most
observation projects require it!)
<eparsons> +1 to JoshLieberman "bang for buck"
<jtandy> +1 to SimonCox_ 's comment about SamplingFeatures
Alejandro_Llaves: work on defining requirements is leading to
some being identified as more general and applicable to more
use cases than originally conceived.
<kerry> aq?
ChrisLittle: not that worried about scope "creep" because scope
hasn't yet been addressed and will be.
<SimonCox_> +1 ChrisLittle
<jtandy> +1 to ChrisLittle ... we manage our scope during
prioritisation activity when we review the requirements list
resulting from assessment of the use cases
<eparsons> sorry cut off
Frans: excluding requirements from present work is not
eliminating them from importance - so requirements delineated
but not addressed will still be a useful result
kerry: very much in scope to describe work for a follow-on
working group
... some discussion and confusion on principles out of best
practice discussion
<SimonCox_> Are principles on Wiki?
<SimonCox_> Are non-functional requirements on Wiki?
kerry: principles help describe what we are trying to do.
should discuss further next week.
... putting things in the issue tracker a good way to make them
visible
<eparsons> Having trouble with zakim letting me back on voice
:-(
<ChrisLittle> +1 timing
<Frans> +1 for the new time
<SimonCox_> Not so good for the Australians
<cperey> thank you for the new time!
<ahaller2> +1 time
<ebremer> +1 time
<LarsG> +1 for new time
I need to depart to another call.
<SimonCox_> But I'm in Liverpool this week
<cperey> yes, we appreciate everyone's sacrifice!
<Frans> People do seem to be busier at this time
<jtandy> thanks kerry
<eparsons> bye
<cperey> bye
<AndreaPerego> Thanks. Bye!
<Alejandro_Llaves> thanks, bye!
<LarsG> bye
<ClemensPortele> bye
<kerry> rrsagen. make logs public
<Frans> Have a good day!
