Quick updates

   Sebastian: DST changed in EU, meetings back to normal

   McCool: we should go through the meetings and check if calendar
   invites need updating

   Zoltan: we should mention UTC times for info

   Koster: the invite is based on Boston time zone
   ... as a group we could decide to stick to UTC, but would cause
   problems to people who use W3C time (US eastern time)

   Lagally: UTC is more used globally than Eastern Time

   McCool: this is W3C policy

   <kaz> [19]Note on the Architecture call

     [19] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/WG_WoT_Architecture_WebConf#Schedule_and_WebEx

   Kaz: agree with McCool
   ... UTC is fine but we could not resolve the whole issue (DST
   differences)
   ... using UTC would be very useful for countries without DST
   but not for US or European countries
   ... we should be clear about when the time zones change

   McCool: the least confusion would be to use the W3C policy,
   i.e. Boston time as reference

   Zoltan: just include UTC as well in the invite :)

   <kaz> [20]time&date including UTC :)

     [20] https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20200402T060000&p1=137&p2=43&p3=tz_at&p4=1440&p5=136&p6=195&p7=101&p8=236&p9=248

   Kaz: pasted a converter link including UTC for convenience

   Sebastian: it's always a mess anyway, so we need to take care
   to organize

   McCool: will send invites

   Sebastian: Singapore GovTech call?

   McCool: we went to 2 weeks cadence

   Sebastian: news about the PoC with Conexxus?

   McCool: some internal meetings, more info later

REC transition

   Sebastian: we have approval
   ... to make a public REC

   [21]Transition request

     [21] https://github.com/w3c/transitions/issues/236

   Lagally: what changes are planned for the press release?

   Sebastian: next topic

Press release

   Sebastian: Alan Bird provided new version

   <kaz> [22]proposed draft

     [22] https://w3c.github.io/wot-marketing/pressrelease-wot-rec.html

   <kaz> [23]remaining issues

     [23] https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/issues

   McCool: everyone who made testimonial should review
   ... we could mention languages and frameworks like Python,
   node-js

   Sebastian: MK mentioned to be working on a testimonial?

   Koster: will confirm later this week

   Sebastian: ML, did that answer the question?

   Lagally: yes
   ... concerned about the delays

   Sebastian: April 9 is still OK?

   Lagally: yes

   McCool: the question is the deadline for testimonials etc

   Sebastian: we could have a testimonial on a later day

   Koster: could give a proposed text and then tell when it's
   approved

   McCool: made a placeholder for SmartThings

   Sebastian: we are also waiting for Mozilla's statements

   McCool: trying to figure out whom to talk to
   ... to check can we mention their implementation

   Sebastian: will contact also other people from Mozilla IoT

   Kaz: we can add testimonials at any point, of course it's nice
   to have everything by one go, but we can include them also
   later

F2F planning

   Sebastian: we will have a virtual F2F instead of Helsinki

   McCool: the final resolution is not yet made
   ... did we check with Aalto?

   Zoltan: not yet
   ... it is expected the epidemic still be there in June

   McCool: then we can make the decision about virtual F2F

   Sebastian made a proposal

   <sebastian> proposal: due to the corona situation, the Helsinki
   f2f meeting will be a virtual f2f meeting

   [no objections]

   RESOLUTION: due to the corona situation, the Helsinki f2f
   meeting will be a virtual f2f meeting

   Ege: regarding T2TRG, what about the annual event on April 9?

   Koster: there will be a CoRE meeting together with T2TRG
   ... with hackathon, interop testing etc
   ... at least personally I am interested

   McCool: let's discuss this in the Plugfest call
   ... we could insert this into our event list

   Sebastian editing the WoT WebConf wiki

   [24]Events section

     [24] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/Main_WoT_WebConf#Events

   Kaz: why don't we add past and future events?
   ... as separate sections?

   Sebastian: right now?

   <mjk> [25]https://github.com/t2trg/wishi/wiki/Agenda-items

     [25] https://github.com/t2trg/wishi/wiki/Agenda-items

   <mjk> April 9th (Thursday), 7:00-11:00 PDT (16:00-20:00 CET,
   14:00-18:00 UTC)

   McCool: let's discuss the details in the Plugfest call

   Sebastian: please register to these events

node-wot

   Sebastian: there was a question if there should be a separate
   meeting for that?
   ... it is developed under the Eclipse Foundation, there is no
   agreement with W3C yet

   Kaz: we should discuss this in marketing call for liaison with
   Eclipse, and in the plugfest/testing call for the technical
   issues

   McCool: we need some developer support and outreach
   ... there have been requests for that
   ... so we need to figure that out
   ... agreed we should discuss under marketing

Task force updates

   Zoltan: discussed Events, semantic API (needs developer
   feedback)
   ... also how to expose values (mediaType etc)

   Sebastian: will join the next meeting

   Lagally: on the Thing Template we already had a discussion in
   Architecture
   ... we align it there
   ... terminology should be agreed in Architecture, don't
   fragment the discussion

   Sebastian: it's not about to make an agreement, just to
   understand
   ... the init dictionary etc

   Lagally: sounds good

   Koster: would like to follow up on TD templates vs fragments
   ... to say where do these come from

   <mjk> ackm

   Lagally: will discuss this in Architecture

   <McCool> [26]https://www.w3.org/2020/03/30-wot-sec-minutes.html

     [26] https://www.w3.org/2020/03/30-wot-sec-minutes.html

   McCool: in security call discussed lifecycle
   ... we will follow up in Architecture, second call
   ... discussed the issue of keys and what kind of keys needed
   ... manufacturing, site, app keys

   Zoltan: site keys are not standard terms

   McCool: looked at PRs and merged Oliver's PR

   <McCool>
   [27]https://www.w3.org/2020/03/30-wot-discovery-minutes.html

     [27] https://www.w3.org/2020/03/30-wot-discovery-minutes.html

   McCool: in the Discovery call, we discussed Vorto
   ... related to templates and class definitions
   ... we could define TD templates for Vorto

   Koster: they are more like type definitions

   McCool: discussed models vs directory vs OpenAPI, edgeX, Vorto
   ... created issues

   Koster: I requested some example Vorto definitions we could use

   McCool: discussed node-wot run in Docker
   ... for the EdgeX use case

   Sebastian: wondering if Vorto model would match our TD
   template?

   McCool: the reason for partial TDs is search/discovery
   ... we want to do that
   ... the Vorto stuff is somewhat different

   Koster: would be nice to have a serialization of models
   ... e.g. TD template being a serialization model

   (Koster leaves)

   McCool: the question is if we have a common model or are they
   in conflict
   ... if translation is possible
   ... we are currently discussing that

   Lagally: in architecture first call, some bookkeeping,
   discussed TD template definition

   [28]Mar-26 Architecture minutes

     [28] https://www.w3.org/2020/03/26-wot-arch-minutes.html

   Lagally: in the second call, discussed lifecycle, running out
   of time with that
   ... tomorrow we allocate the second call for that discussion
   ... in addition there are 3-4 PRs
   ... discuss use cases for media

   Ege: about the plugfest call, we discussed about VPN setup, the
   use of node-wot in general
   ... we should find more people
   ... it's important to add features to node-wot

   Sebastian: in marketing call, discussed the press release and
   web page
   ... in the TD call, discussed topics for the virtual F2F
   ... on efficient TD representations, by Taki and Daniel
   ... also about Events
   ... on the bindings call, no topics
