Agenda 20160414

• CFC Update (Chairs)
  • Decision
  • Schedule
• Decision and publications process after FPWD (Mike)
  • Finer grain updates possible after FPWD; based on large changes (with WG decisions) and small ones (editorial, bug fixes).
    • Non-editors that wish to make concrete change proposals needs to fork the spec repo and submit pull requests (the editors might also decide to use their discretion on a case-by-case basis to allow particular contributors to create branches in the spec repo and push to those, in order for the editors to more easily iterate over the proposed spec text along with the submitter prior to merging; but the choice of when or if to ever do that at all is strictly up to the editors)
    • Participants who cannot do this (e.g., due to company network policy) please contact the chairs.
  • Decision process
    • Example: Where there is consensus on substantive proposals and issues and proposals (expressed via GitHub and email), allow Editors to incorporate proposals into the Editors' Drafts without further WG decision. Where there is not consensus, organize group discussion and decision (followed by update). For editorial and bug fixes, allow Editors to make changes in the Editor's Drafts.
    • Each commit, therefore, should increase the proportion of content in the specification for which there is consensus. Thus, we should enable editors to update TR drafts automatically on merge
  • PROPOSAL TO THE GROUP:
    • The WPWG will use the auto-publish mechanism
    • Adopt decision policy above (Editors can merge proposals with consensus + editorial; others discussed before decision)
    • Adopt publish-TR-on-merge policy.
    • Create a twitter account to build community around the specs (and inform them of key publications)
• Proposal to publish FAQ with FPWD (Ian)
• Overview of extensibility topics (Ian)
  • Goals (after discussion)
    • Capture all the extensibility topics the WG cares about, and get shared understanding of how they relate
    • Reach consensus on requirements to guide specification development
• Face-to-face meeting update
