Hi Carsten, all,

Thanks for the pointer. Your slides contain many valid questions.
I think that, at this point, we need to ask ourselves what the goal of the 
terminology draft is.
If I'm not mistaken, its goal is to help us humans read other drafts and 
understand them. Not to specify algorithms that machines will execute to make 
hard decisions (such as RFC6551). Therefore, we don't need to be overly strict 
in our definitions.

I think some taxonomy related to energy is useful in the terminology draft. For 
this, the 3 boolean variables you mention on slide 6 seem appropriate to me.
I don't think we are able to define a vector of Classes of devices as simple as 
EnergyClass0, EnergyClass1, etc.
I view the energy problem as at least bi-dimensional: initial energy value, and 
average energy regeneration rate. Maybe even tri-dimensional: currently stored 
energy amount, long-term average regeneration rate (based on device 
characteristics), short-term predicted regeneration rate (based on external 
conditions), where long-term and short-term may be understood differently 
depending on the application.
However, are we going to be able to use a 3-dimensional classification? What 
for? Are we going to write "for a device of EnergyClass(1,3,7) do this, for 
EnergyClass(2,2,1) do that"?
If the community thinks it's useful, I'm willing to give a stab at such a 
classification with Peter's help.
I'd first like to hear who is going to use it, and what for.
The alternative being some vocabulary like the 3 boolean variables you 
mentioned, complemented with some SI unit values as appropriate in the 
forthcoming draft that this group will produce.

Opinions?

Dominique

We will have some 20 minutes tomorrow morning to discuss the LWIG terminology 
draft.

If you want, you can peek at my slides for that:

(The pointer isn't on the agenda page yet:
