Meeting minutes

  minutes review

   <kaz> [9]Apr-13

      [9] https://www.w3.org/2021/04/13-wot-marketing-minutes.html

   for vF2F and minutes from last meeting before F2F

   note that regarding "task force", I recall the decision was to
   always use two words, but it's not recorded in the minutes

   Kaz: I will add a note to the minutes to record the decision

   McCool: also liaison is misspelled in several places

   <kaz> [note added and typos fixed]

   McCool: regarding tutorials, we did discuss in plugfest call,
   and can do that again this week

   Sebastian: any objection to publishing the minutes?

   <kaz> (none; approved)

   Sebastian: hearing no objections, these minutes will be
   published

  Blog post

   Sebastian: just one comment on the size of the thumbnail
   picture

   McCool: I'll have to figure out how to do it, wordpress is a
   little weird
   … also looks like the alt tag might be missing
   … it was in the HTML but...
   … also "alt" might be expanded to "if youtube does not work for
   you, click here"

   Sebastian: 50% looks ok

   McCool: will have to update formatting, then will click on post
   when I'm done

   Resolution: when W3C provides a tweet which is relevant to WoT,
   @W3C_WoT is allowed to re-tweet directly

   <Ege> @w3c is the account name to be precise :)

   McCool: I'll also update the policy, and we should mention in
   the main call tomorrow

  web page updates

   Sebastian: daniel has provided some PRs
   … issue 161

   <kaz> [10]Issue 161 - Add WoT Liaisons to IG page

     [10] https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/issues/161

   Daniel: there were a number of broken links on the liaison page
   … and also strange ones, like a link pointing to a french
   wikipedia site
   … also logos would be nicers, but formatting is tricky
   … for now do without logos

   Kaz: let's start with text names, can work on logos later

   Daniel: I also listed three issues regarding links, please take
   a look
   … hypercat is broken, etc.
   … when you look on the official liaison page

   McCool: and if we find broken links on the official page, those
   should be fixed

   Kaz: regarding broken links on the official page, we can send
   an email to the liaison team

   Sebastian: feel that we *should* include logos
   … logos will look more professional and easier to read

   McCool: just a question of timing; do we do text first, and
   then add logos, or wait until we have logos?

   Sebastian: ok to do it incrementally

   Ege: issue with logos not being consistent sizes, etc

   McCool: also logos typically come with rules about white space,
   etc.
   … let's get the logos first, then figure out how to design the
   page to display them
   … logo capture will be tracked in issue 164

   Daniel: new pr 164, addresses issue to move icons before text,
   and also fixes "task force" spelling
   … fixes issue 153

   Daniel: note also some decisions made about text alignment

   Ege: note binding templates are a tf in the charter
   … not necessarily useful any more
   … and it does not have its own meeting
   … instead it is part of the TD call
   … if someone goes looking for the binding template call they
   won't find it

   Sebastian: the description of the TD TF does say that binding
   templates are handled by the TD TF

   Kaz: note there is no official list of TFs managed by the W3C
   as a whole
   … it is up to each group to manage TFs

   Sebastian: ege, maybe you can do some research to see if we
   have to fix anything

   Ege: ok, but for now the web page looks ok

   Sebastian: back to this PR, I think it looks good
   … shall we merge it?

   Sebastian: hearing no objections, will merge

   <sebastian> [11]https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/160

     [11] https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/160

   Sebastian: merged

   Sebastian: another pr 161, still in progress

  conferences

   Ege: issue 163, API Specification Conference

   <sebastian> [12]https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/154

     [12] https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/154

   Sebastian: this PR just provides sources for the images used in
   the web page
   … as a PPTX
   … note it is under docs/material/wot-figures.pptx

   <kaz> [13]Issue 163 - API Specification Conference 2021

     [13] https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/issues/163

   Ege: API Specification Conference

   Ege: would like to discuss what kind of content we want
   … we can't do exactly the same as last year as it will get
   rejected
   … so maybe this year we can focus on a different aspect
   … we could also focus on new things, but need to know previous
   work
   … then there is scripting, maybe look at specific examples

   McCool: I personally would like to see a deep dive into a
   specific use case and use in products

   Sebastian: will have some mention in June

   <citrullin> +1 on what Seb said

   McCool: and I think we should avoid emphasizing "maker" scene,
   etc.
   … rather should look at commercial applications

   Ege: participants are commercial vendors

   Sebastian: have to close, let's follow up on this next week

   <kaz> [adjourned]
