   Zoltan: reviewing the PR

   McCool: should add editor's note to specify how the spec will
   be evolving later, wrt Protocol Bindings

   Zoltan: question: should readMultiple fail is not possible with
   a single network request?

   McCool: yes

   Cristiano: yes

   Zoltan: some help will be needed on defining how to handle URI
   variables

   Cristiano: there is an RFC 6570

   Zoltan: maybe if there is anything in the Fetch Standard

   Cristiano: question about arrayBuffer()
   ... the function reads all the bytes
   ... does that include decoding?

   Zoltan: same as with the Body mixin, just providing the bytes
   ... value() now fails early if it can tell it has no chance to
   succeed
   ... should we allow implementations to duplicate the stream?

   Cristiano: it would be overengineering
   ... we could leave it this was and change later if needed

   Zoltan: on "check data schema", if there is an external
   algorithm available, let's change
   ... on writing, if schema is a string and source is not, should
   we use JSON serialization?

   Cristiano: need to think about that

   Zoltan: let's create an issue

   Cristiano: yes and experiment

   Zoltan: OK, this was it. Still waiting on Daniel's input.
   ... will add the editor's notes

should we extend consume() to accept a URL in simple case?

   <kaz> [10]D. Full Web IDL

     [10] https://www.w3.org/TR/wot-scripting-api/#idl-index

   McCool: make sure it is clear it's a URL and not a string TD
   ... if it needs security info, the runtime needs to be
   provisioned

   Zoltan: right

   Cristiano: currently if we use Fetch we are limiting to HTTP,
   so we cannot use CoAP
   ... if we include URL then we could use other bindings
   ... so this is a welcome idea

   McCool: actually packet size limitations might be an issue with
   CoAP
   ... on short term it is likely that distributing TD's would be
   HTTP based

   Zoltan: that is great information

   McCool: we will study distributing via CoAP

   Zoltan: CoAP would work well with constrained devices that
   don't have HTTP stack but have CoAP support

   McCool: doubt we'll do distribution with CoAP, but with CoAPS
   ... CoAP over TCP could be a solution
   ... anyway, the Scripting API should be independent

   Zoltan: will create an issue or revive old issue to discuss
   this
