<h2>How to Submit an Erratum?</h2>

<p>
Errata are introduced and stored in the <a href="https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/issues/">issue list
for the WoT Thing Description GitHub repository</a>.
The workflow to add a new erratum is as follows:
</p>

<ol>
<li>
A possible mistake is submitted as issues on GitHub, whose title MUST start
with <code>[POSSIBLE ERRATA]</code>, e.g. <code>[POSSIBLE ERRATA] This sentence is wrong</code>. Anyone can
submit the issue. The specification version MAY be indicated in the issue description.
</li>
<li>
The issue MUST be evaluated before it becomes an official errata, which is reserved for mistakes, errors and
bugs in the REC document.
</li>
<li>
Evaluation of the label MUST happen by the Thing Description Task Force of the Web of Things Working Group.
<ol>
<li>
If this Task Force is not active anymore, the Web of Things Working Group MUST evaluate it.
</li>
<li>
If the Web of Things Working Group does not exist anymore, the W3C Team or their delegated entity MUST
evaluate the submission.
</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>
Evaluation result MUST be adding a GitHub label with text being either
<code>Official Substantive Errata TD1.0 Confirmed</code> or
<code>Official Editorial Errata TD1.0 Confirmed</code>. Note that whether the errata is substantive or editorial
depends on the errata. If there is implementation impact, it is generally
a substantive errata.
</li>
<li>
If a GitHub issue is submitted without thinking that it can be Errata, thus not contain
<code>[POSSIBLE ERRATA]</code> but turns out to be one, it CAN also obtain the label above after an evaluation
by the Thing Description Task Force of the Web of Things Working Group. Note that the delegation of the Task
Force is NOT REQUIRED to evaluate every new
issue.
</li>
<li>
The Thing Description Task Force of the Web of Things Working Group or their delegation edits the REC document
to address the errata with a GitHub Pull Request also containing
the label <code>Official Errata Fix</code>. In the same Pull Request, the Task Force or the delegation edits the
corresponding errata.html document manually based on the issue, following the instructions below in this
document.
</li>
<li>
Resolution to merge the Pull Request MUST be a Web of Things Working Group resolution or a mechanism chosen by
the delegation.
</li>
</ol>

<p>
If you have problems following this process, but you want nevertheless to report an error, you can also contact
the staff contact of the Web of Things Working Group, <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Kaz Ashimura</a>.

<h2>How to Submit an Erratum?</h2>
<p>Errata are introduced and stored in the <a href="https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/issues/">issue
list for the WoT Thing Description GitHub repository</a>.
The workflow to add a new erratum is as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>An issue is raised for a possible erratum. The label of the issue SHOULD be set to
<code>ErratumRaised</code>. It is o.k. for an erratum to have several labels. In some, exceptional, cases,
i.e., when the erratum is very general, it is also acceptable not to have a reference to a document.
</li>
<li>Issues labeled as <code>Editorial</code> are displayed separately, to make it easier to differentiate
editorial errata from substantive ones.</li>
<li>The community discusses the issue. If it is accepted as a genuine erratum, the label <code>Errata</code>
is added to the entry and the <code>ErratumRaised</code> label should be removed. Additionally, a new
comment on the issue MAY be added, beginning with the word "Summary:" (if such a summary is useful based on
the discussion).</li>
<li>If the community rejects the issue as an erratum, the issue should be closed.</li>
<li>Each errata may be labelled as <code>Editorial</code>; editorial errata are listed separately from the
substantive ones.</li>
<li>ALL substantive errata are generally expected to have corresponding test(s), either in the form of new tests
or modifications to existing tests, or must include the rationale for why test updates are not required for
the erratum.</li>
</ul>

<p>This report contains a reference to all open issues with the label <code>Errata</code>, displayed in the
sections below. Each section collects the issues for a specific document, with a separate section for the issues
not assigned to any.</p>

<p>If you have problems following this process, but you want nevertheless to report an error, you can also contact
the staff contact of the Web of Things Working Group, <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Kaz Ashimura</a>.</p>
