🌱 Low level Device APIs breakout session

• ⏰ 14 Sep 2022, 18:15 - 19:15 UTC (see your local time) - 🗓️ Calendar
• Some of the incubations discussed in this breakout session may advance to the Devices and Sensors WG in the future and we expect to discuss the key takeaways from this breakout in the WG meeting.

Agenda

For completeness, this agenda enumerates all the WG's deliverables, including tentative ones. Due to time limitations, we cannot allocate equal agenda time for every deliverable, and we give preference to deliverables that have issues or proposal that we think will benefit from F2F/hybrid style discussion. "None" indicates no issues proposed to the F2F agenda currently.

⏰ Start: 8:00 Vancouver / 15:00 UTC

👋 Welcome

• Intros
• Agenda bashing

📘 Charter update

🔒 Privacy & Security

A session to discuss the WG's approach to security and privacy. Present an overview of mitigations integrated into the WG's specs. Identify future work.

This session is an opportunity to collaborate with PING, Security and other relevant domain experts subject to availability.
