Minutes

• Incomplete action items from the previous meeting were rolled over
• @kriswest Asked the Standards Working Group participants if there was consensus for the inclusion of the FDC3 for the Web proposal in the FDC3 2.2 scope as @experimental and for the PR (FDC3 for Web specification #1191) to be merged once it clears review by FDC3's editor.
  • Consensus was given (unanimous, with several participants speaking for the proposal and the and the rigour of the process used to create it)
• @kriswest Also asked if there was consensus for the inclusion of the set of issues detailed in the agenda to be included in the FDC3 2.2 scope.
  • There was consensus that the following issues be included:
    • Intent Proposal: Create or Update Profile #591
    • fdc3.entity.fileAttachment is only defined inline in the fdc3.message schema and example has wrong type #1255

    • Support broadcast in FDC3 Action #1353
  • An objection was recorded to the following issue, with the maintainers requested to review alternative options (as CommonJS is still in use in some places in front-end apps):
    • CommonJs vs ES6 #1351
• @kriswest Asked if there was consensus on closing the resulting 2.2 scope (and provided an overview of the proposed scope, a possible scope for 2.3 and open issues not in any proposed scope), allowing the maintainers to focus on the delivery of that scope, with any further issues being bumped to FDC3 2.3 or beyond).
  • There was consensus that we should adopt the proposed 2.2 scope.
