  • Issue [Retrieval] What is the expected behavior when maxAge value is above threshold supported by the operator?

    • Answered by @Cetin Alpaycetin

    • No further interaction, it could be closed - Closed

  • Update location-retrieval with add maxSurface management

  • Support of Multi-SIM lines in DeviceLocation APIs

    • Derived from camaraproject/Commonalities#302

      • Some new comments but no conclusions

    • Device Location APIs are specially problematic as location is linked to a physical device, not to a phone number 

    • Discussion during last meeting:

      • The issue has a technical aspect  but it is more important for Product Management.

      • For Location-verification probably we can consider that if any device is in 'the zone' then the result will be true. Perhaps same for geofencing.

      • For location-retrieval the issue is more critical as sending back an array of location is probably not a good solution

      • We need to think about UC in particular as location retrieval is probably used for non-personal device (for sensitive reason) so is there really a requirement for multi-sim for this API?

      • Action for each company to work with product team to refine the requirement

  • The issue to improve Geofencing with LOOSE, MODERATE, STRICT 'flavor' is still open #133

    • From previous meeting: Should be part of the discussion for next version.

    • @Ludovic Robert is working on this topic within Orange.

    • Issue still relevant

Waiting for commonalities
