Tuesdays at 10am US/Pacific, 1pm US/Eastern time for 60 minutes

Previous Meeting

Chair to start the meeting by typing on irc:

trackbot, start meeting

Trackbot should already be on the channel but if for some reason it is not call it with the following command:

/invite trackbot

Zakim won't know what meeting it is. Just ignore it. Pick a scribe from the list or ask Zakim to pick one up with the following command:

Zakim, pick a victim

Unfortunately Zakim has no idea who's scribed before so you may have to ask several times before getting an acceptable answer...

Then type:

scribe: xxx

Also, with WebEx, Zakim doesn't know who is on the call so, as people join they should record their attendance with the command: present+ <nickname>

For additional info, see the Zakim documentation page.

Open Issues from the Editor:
- https://www.w3.org/Social/track/issues/26 and https://www.w3.org/Social/track/issues/27: Do we want to add a "Profile" object to the Core Vocabulary or Not? Are the "Person" or "Actor" objects enough? (we need a proposal)
- https://www.w3.org/Social/track/issues/28 : Do we want to model "Friend Request" and "Connection" as Activities or Objects? E.g. is it "Joe requested a connection to Sally" or "Joe created a Connection with Sally". In most Social Platforms, the Connection/Relationship is modeled as an *Object*. Currently we model these as Activities, which doesn't seem to make sense (note: modeling as an Activity is a carryover from AS1)
- https://www.w3.org/Social/track/issues/31 : Two part issue: (a) Refactor and simplify audience targeting by removing "to" and "bto", (b) rename the existing "target" and "origin" properties to "to" and "from"
- https://www.w3.org/Social/track/issues/32 : Deprecate "generator" and "provider" ? Is there harm in keeping these around? (IBM uses them as informational metadata only)
