   [7]Feb-25

      [7] https://www.w3.org/2021/02/25-wot-arch-minutes.html

   Lagally: (goes through the minutes)

   Lagally: any problems?

   (none; approved)

  vF2F

   [8]vF2F agenda

      [8] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/F2F_meeting,_March_2021#Agenda

   Lagally: (goes through the agenda for March 22)
   … terminology, ITU-T liaison, ...
   … partial TD discussion?

   McCool: terminology discussion? or use case discussion?
   … maybe could move this topic earlier during the terminology
   session

   Lagally: (moves "partial TD" topic to the terminology session)

   McCool: another issue is validation

   Lagally: (adds "TD validation" as well to the terminology
   session)
   … ("framing" too)

   McCool: also should discuss here or during the TD day
   … relate to both TD and discovery, so during the Architecture
   call makes sense
   … not only terminology but also part of TD discussion

   Sebastian: btw, some kind of introductory talk at the beginning
   would be useful, wouldn't it?

   Lagally: good point

   McCool: each subsection from each day has assigned owner
   … and those owners are to generate some introduction

   Lagally: will clean up the remaining issues on GitHub
   … and assign them to proper people

   McCool: my expectation is closing all the terminology issues
   during the vF2F

   Lagally: ok

   Kaz: just wanted to make sure the introduction at the beginning
   is strictly focused on the topics from that day

   all: right

   Kaz: also should make sure the introduction should be brief
   enough :)
   … we already have introduction session on the first day, March
   15
   … so please make sure to use the additional introduction
   sessions on other days in a productive manner ;)

   McCool: let's have some more discussion during the main call

   Lagally: (moves ahead)
   … what about Profiles?

   McCool: need to get resolution about one or multiple profiles

   Sebastian: core profile now and additional profiles later?

   Lagally: that's my understanding as well

   Sebastian: my question is still about the term of "core",
   though

   McCool: if we have constrained devices, do we want to define
   some profile for them?

   Sebastian: WoT as a whole doesn't care about what the devices
   actually are

   Lagally: having the information about the expected classes to
   avoid confusion on the gateways, etc.

   Sebastian: wondering about concrete use cases for this approach

   Lagally: we're working on a use case

   Sebastian: what is the real use case and scenario then?

   Kaz: so we're generating some concrete use case description now
   … and will discuss that during the vF2F

   Lagally: (shows RFC7228 as the basis of the class definition)

   [9]RFC 7228

      [9] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7228

   Lagally: this definition is just a proposal at the moment

   McCool: btw, class 3 might be for something like gateway
   … on the other hand, class 4/5 are more for something like
   Raspberry Pi
   … and Class 6 can be a server
   … the classes are defined by IETF by an RFC
   … and what to do next is thinking about what capacity is
   required for what purposes
   … target platform based on some given function

   Sebastian: even a constrained device can generate some big
   Thing Description

   Kaz: in that case, maybe we need to think about TAT as well as
   the hardware power

   <citrullin> [10]The minutes about some potential issue with
   constrained devices in security

     [10] https://www.w3.org/2021/02/15-wot-sec-minutes.html

   McCool: also thought about that
   … but memory, etc., are easier to start with

   Kaz: ok, starting with easier point is fine

   McCool: do we keep it as a PR to see the preview?

   Lagally: can push the changes so that we can see them
   … (push some updates to PR 70)

   [11]PR 70 - 5. Device Categories

     [11] https://pr-preview.s3.amazonaws.com/w3c/wot-profile/70/594c374...c4b57d1.html#device-categoriesdevices

   McCool: would fill in something from the security viewpoint
   … minimal requirements for secure systems

  Terminology (revisited)

   [12]PR 582 - 3. Terminology

     [12] https://pr-preview.s3.amazonaws.com/w3c/wot-architecture/582/c0c8113...mmccool:31e933d.html#terminology

   Lagally: (goes through the changes)

   McCool: partial TD
   … Shadow
   … TDD
   … TD Element - replacement of "TD Fragment"

   Lagally: note we need another entry for "Thing Description
   Element"

   McCool: right
   … there is a definition a bit below (after "Thing Model")
   … still need further work here
   … my hope is leave this PR 582, get more feedback, and finalize
   the terminology during the vF2F

   Lagally: ok

   McCool: we should separate the definition itself and the name
   of terms

   Lagally: ok

   McCool: please do give comments on the PR 582

   Lagally: ok
   … will ask the group to do so
   … AOB?

   Sebastian: still have an impression that my concern is not
   handled seriously enough...

   McCool: let's see what the real issues here

   Sebastian: would like to see the actual purpose of the profile

   Kaz: would suggest we clarify what we want to have by defining
   "profiles"
   … and see use cases and scenarios based on some concrete device
   settings

   Sebastian: would be nice to create an issue to collect concrete
   scenarios

   McCool: ok
