  • New PRs:

  • Open PRs:

    • None

  • New Issues:

    • Issue #40:  Proposed renaming of device identifier API

      • Using sub-project three letter code dvi as API name not scalable as additional APIs are added to the sub-project

      • Proposal is to use device-identifier as the new name

      • Please comment if you have a view

  • Open issues:

    • Issue #21: API Definition Terminology

      • Issue is out of date

      • ACTION: Eric to update issue text

    • Issue #30: Defined scopes and meanings, being discussed in Issue 

      • Proposal is to have two scopes - one for all information, and one for TAC, Make and Model only

      • Brian: Should separate paths be defined rather than have a single path which accepts two scopes?

      • Please comment if you have a view

  • Open Discussions:

    • Discussion #35: Age of information or device connectivity status

      • Vodafone's implementation checks in "real time", so device must be connected and "age of information" would be 0

        • The current API design implicitly assumes these values

      • Other implementor's solutions may rely on cached data possibly be out of date, and hence require such a field

      • Please comment if you have a view

    • Discussion #36: Alternative device identifiers

      • No discussion yet - please comment if you have a view
