Agenda and Minutes

Action Items

• Ask to Christian about domus-directory
• Jan to check whether pub.dev accepts dual-license setup.
• dart-wot to remove the third-party license and just acknowledge node-wot as inspiration
• Cristiano to update readmes with links. The logo files go to this repository.
• Jan: Make sure all thingweb repos have wot and web-of-things label in https://github.com/eclipse-thingweb/.eclipsefdn/blob/main/otterdog/eclipse-thingweb.jsonnet
• Checking npm organization structure to have one place to publish all thingweb components/packages.
  • https://docs.npmjs.com/about-scopes
• Ege: Create new org

Decisions and Resolutions

• Logo: We will have a placeholder for individual components. See example below:
• New npm organization called thingweb looking like https://www.npmjs.com/org/node-wot. Package names will be @thingweb/MY_TOOL
