  Minutes

   Daniel: last week no call

   [7]May-17

      [7] https://www.w3.org/2021/05/17-wot-scripting-minutes.html

   Daniel: not sure why the minutes reports Smart City Workshop
   … we discussed about f2f and testing
   … I also mentioned that the dates are overlapping with my
   vacation plans
   … the rest of the minutes was about issue 193
   … the discussion focused on echonet example
   … should write property operation return something?
   … the consensus was to not return anything
   … but if the binding using some returned values the
   implementation might throw an error to inform the application
   logic
   … we should make this clear in the document
   … no changes are required to the API

   Zoltan: yes

   Daniel: minutes approved

  quick updates

   Daniel: proposal during the test week no call
   … but the test fest does not conflict with the scripting call
   … theoretically we could do it

   Kaz: I expected that the ordinary calls would be cancelled

   Daniel: for me it is ok to cancel

   Zoltan: I can join if there's a call

   Cristiano: ok for cancel

   Daniel: if nothing urgent comes up, no call

   Daniel: I'll be on vacation from the 12 to the end of june
   … some of you can schedule calls? do we have anything to
   present during the F2F ?

   Cristiano: I think we don't have so many updates right now

   Daniel: june it is pretty packed up maybe we will skip a few
   calls

   Zoltan: we should get inputs from bindings and TD

   Daniel: we can discuss about open issues with different task
   force

   Zoltan: we could take an hour an just finish eairler

   Daniel: should we add a bullet point dedicated to scripting?

   Cristiano: why don't we split our topics into the different
   task force topics?

   Daniel: yes, let me do it

  issues

   Daniel: please review the three big issue dedicated to TD,
   discovery, and security
   … before F2F and Testing

   <kaz> [8]Issue 313 - ThingDescription TaskForce related issues

      [8] https://github.com/w3c/wot-scripting-api/issues/313

   Cristiano: I think topic in issue 313 should be moved under
   PartialTD validation

   Daniel: yes

   <kaz> [9]Issue 314 - Discovery TaskForce related issues

      [9] https://github.com/w3c/wot-scripting-api/issues/314

   Daniel: please also check issue 314
   … it would be also useful to discover local things around me
   … there is a dedicated issue

   Zoltan: we have use cases before experiments with the feature.

   daniel: I'd to have the possibility to look for things around
   me at operational time
   … it seems that right now we focus just on the second phase
   discovery
   … we should explore it also in node-wot
   … the next task force topic was about security
   … it goes around provisioning of security credential and
   management api
   … zoltan proposed to move the discussion to another document
   … about our API we should be able to pick one of the
   configurations and assing to the specific Thing

   Cristiano: yes

   <kaz> [10]Issue 315 - Security TaskForce related issues

     [10] https://github.com/w3c/wot-scripting-api/issues/315

   Daniel: node wot uses a configuration file that has a map with
   ids and credentials

   Cristiano: yes, it is basic and it works only if you know
   beforhand the id of the consumed thing

   Daniel: yes, you need to first add the credentials and then
   consume the thing

   Zoltan: the principle that there's no man in the middles
   … we should not give then plain to other software agents

   Daniel: there's no way to specify which security to use in an
   expose thing
   … selectivly

   Zoltan: we already agreed that exposing a Thing is a system
   level privildge

   Daniel: we could have a code example about it

   Zoltan: we could use "special things" that contains this kind
   of information
   … so we might not need a new api
   … but then we need a way to discovery them

   Cristiano: it is not a bad idea, but maybe a little bit
   overkill

   Zoltan: we maybe just need special filters in the discovery

   Daniel: I am not sure about the example in 299

   Zoltan: yeah I was thinking about the source of information
   about the supported security schemes

   Daniel: what about a setSecurityHandler

   Zoltan: yeah you need to have it for each interaction level
   … we can think a nice api to do it after production phase

   Daniel: we are almost there, but just to be precise we are
   missing the securityDefinitions

   Zoltan: yes about that we have the two options presented above:
   one funciton or a special Thing object
   … if it is an api it needs to be controller by authorization
   coinstraints (permissions)

   Zoltan: I got a lot of updates about writeProperty return

   Daniel: ok I'll review it
   … next week call cancelled if nothing urgent happen
