Scribe: John Mattsson

- Open issue about PoP Key Semantics for CWTs

   Similar CWT representation in two drafts. Mike arguing for CWT to be in its
   own draft.

   Used by non-ACE. Independent draft can move on quicker.

   Question: Separate document or keep in in the current WG document?

   Decision: Crystal clear to have CWT in a separate document.

   Chair: Update to charter not needed, but milestone needed.

- CBOR Web Token

  1 open issue regarding the example.

  Next steps: Update example -> Mike to talk to Jim & Samuel

Authorization using OAuth 2.0

   Features useful for many profiles have been moved to framework.
   Time sync to be done, discussion on which mechanism to use.

   Discussion on how to confirm security properties of the framework. Security
   properties need to be showed for each profile.

   Discussion on which profiles to standardize.

   Recommendation made to write a roadmap document (or to use the Wiki) to
   explain which profiles is needed for which environment.
