Word-smithing on the Refined Name & Scope #9

Open jorydotcom opened 5 years ago

jorydotcom commented 5 years ago

During our in-person meeting today we discussed revising the name & scope.

Jory to take a pass on the work we did in today's meeting and send around a revision for the committee to review by end of week.

In a side conversation, Bob Frankston made a great point about the scope description that I'm capturing here so we don't lose it. Referring to the devices created using APIs defined by TC53, Bob wrote:

I want people to see these as part of a large ecosystem rather than ends in themselves.

I don't believe this is a controversial point, but it can get obscured if the description focuses on the capabilities of the device itself. Many of the device features -- radios in particular -- are present specifically to allow communication between devices. Our choice to use ECMAScript for development reinforces that device-to-device communication is a key goal as it is a language that facilitates secure, interoperable, interactive communication.

@phoddie I believe the new name and scope are reflected here so we can close this issue. Correct?

phoddie commented 4 years ago

Correct.

A reminder that I took an action at our last meeting to modify the scope one more time in order to create a stronger reason for embedded engineers to desire change. I would propose leaving this open until we close that. I don’t need long.

Sounds good. I'll leave it open.
