Agenda & Notes

1. Prioritization of Last Use Case: Application Profiles
   • We had one ticket that we left as Proposed In Scope because we want to @awoods in the conversation before moving forward.
   • The extension model has a locked down version of the specification; that might be something to follow but at minimum we might want to provide a way to reference application profiles.
   • Similar to schema registry extension partially fills this role. This doesn't tell you where the schemas are and how they are used in the application.
   • Could an application profile be an extension? Yes and that could be a valid outcome of the use case along with some language in the implementation notes.
   • Decision: Mark it as in scope for V2.

2. Initial Extension

   • we should take the suggestion from Simeon around language
   • we should also take Jurgen's suggestions about the first config change and the updated spec language.

3. In Person Meeting for v.2?

   • pencil in thursday and friday at Oxford before iPres (Sept. 12 and 13)
   • we will confirm once there is a workshop.
   • should we hold an in person meeting to discuss v2 next steps?

4. Community Engagement

   • Community Meeting -- there is a high bar for changes to the specification. generally the sentiment is it works, so don't fix it.
   • Anymore discussion about community engagement?
   • iPres (Ghent, Belgium) - Sept. 16 to 20, 2024 - proposal submitted -- no date as of yet for notifying proposers if it was accepted.
