New subject: [Standards] IoT SIG: overview informational XEP

12 Oct 2016

Once again, I’m happy to see the we’re recharging the community ☺
That we’re are moving forward and I hope that we see more minds participating in the
discussions.

Hi Peter W,

With your extensive background in IoT and as the author of most of the IoT XEPs, I think
it would be very good and helpful if you can author/co-author the XEP. I’m happy to help
with what I can. I think we both share the vision of a distributed autonomous Internet for
Things and this is what will make that happen.

Let us have the conversation in the IoT mailing list, so we not tire out people about IoT,
before we even begin the work…. ☺

I’ll send out a mail in the IoT mailing list to get things going.

Peter Saint-Andre and Dave,
Should this XEP be done using the XSF Git?

Subject: [Standards] IoT SIG: overview informational XEP

Hello everybody

Regarding the XMPP IoT SIG deliverable §5:

...
  The IoT SIG should at a minumum produce an
informational XEP
 that provides an overview of the XMPP IoT "landscape"; this document
 could help the XMPP community (including XSF members, leadership,
 and teams) understand the Intenet of Things and especially the
 applicability of XMPP to common IoT use cases.

Unless somebody else volunteers in writing this document, I volunteer writing one. Some
questions:

·         How is the procedure supposed to be?

·         I write a draft and transmit it to the council for evaluation?

·         Or should it be sent to the iot mailing list?

·         Or should we agree on a disposition first, i.e. what sections/subsections to
include?

·         Are there any special criteria or considerations that have to be taken into
account already from the beginning?

·         Is there an interest by any other to co-author? Any preferences regarding to
sections?

Best regards,
Peter Waher
