Dmitry: I have written 2D and 3D graphics requirements on the Specification draft page.

Reviewing Dmitrys input...

Dmitry: 2D is quite clear
Gunnar: The 2D chapter references VIRTIO 1.0 from 2015. Is it up to date?
Dmitry: Yes, I think so. Not much change (in 2D area)
Dmitry: VIRTIO-VIRGL - empty reference for now. There is no spec to point to yet. I can only refer to kernel source etc.
...hope to see something coming here.

Gunnar: Great start, comprehensive and detailed work!
Gunnar: But it is very minimalistic, which we want of course, but maybe too much.
... We need to write each topic/chapter names so that people can see what each requirement is about.

Dmitry: OK, I will fix that

Gunnar: We should also write some introduction text to topics.  Put in a paragraph or so at least.   If a particular topic is not covered in VIRTIO remember that we still need to put a placeholder title in there.

Gunnar: Asking the group generally: usefulness of specification? Are we still doing the right thing?
Franz: In some areas PikeOS has its own APIs and we do not use VIRTIO
Gunnar: Understood, and that's a choice anyone is free to make. To be clear we're not saying everything must be exactly according to VIRTIO, but of course other proposals must be laid out if they are going to affect standards work.

...Going through the table to review last week's discussion.
Gunnar. USB (repeat) Any device role? Device role? Anyone?

Gunnar: What are the use cases, you all work in real projects so you are the ones that might know of any.

Franz: I see mostly connection mobile phone, provide streaming video via hone.
Gunnar: That is normally still car in host role and phone in device role I believe.
Gunnar: Anyone else know of any case where car has device-role?
(none answered)

Gunnar: Artem, Updates?
Artem: Sorry been travelling. Will be more up to date next week.

Vasco (chat): Have to drop off...

Going through the table a bit more.  Mostly we need to collect and consolidate what has already been created.

Gunnar: Bernhard, updates or thoughts?  Your ARM colleagues have provided good input the last few weeks, for example about what lies in the future, i.e. what's still open topics in virtualization.
Bernhard: Sorry, back from vacation, also need to catch up on notes first.

Gunnar:  (smile)  OK, no problem.  Let's reconvene next week with more energy.  We now have a good draft that will lead the way for other topics.
