Technology Architecture TF Wenjing Chu  Drummond Reed

  • Drummond reported that there is has been some good asynchronous progress on the three major action items left (glossary, revised conceptual diagram, use cases). Two of them are on our agenda today.
  • We are also seeing just what we predicted: the most important feedback on ToIP Technology Architecture Specification (TAS) requirements is coming from our own TFs — primarily the Trust Registry TF and the Trust Spanning Protocol TF.
  • So we will most likely want both of them to get to the Working Draft stage and see if they have any further feedback on the TAS requirements before we finalize it.

Trust Registry TFAndor Antti Kettunen  Darrell O'Donnell

  • Darrell explained that the TF has made several key decisions, starting with an objective statement that focuses on the definition of the Trust Registry Protocol. Other discussions, such as trust decision models, are going to be deferred.
  • The TF is now working on the logical model and a Swagger API definition.
  • Great collaboration with DIF members including Sam Curren and Andor. Good alignment.

Trust Spanning Protocol TF Drummond Reed Daniel Hardman Wenjing Chu Sam Smith 

  • Daniel Hardman shared that have just finished the proposal stage (the "preliminary input stage") and are about to enter the consolidation stage.
  • Six meetings have been dedicated to four proposals.
  • The Github discussions have been extremely in-depth and detailed — enough so that it is difficult for all TSPTF members to follow all of it.
  • The next major step is consolidation of the proposals: how we will figure out alignment between the protocols. We anticipate this will involve a lot of whiteboarding and discussion of tradeoffs.
  • The goal of this stage will be to have rough consensus on the design of the protocol.
  • Daniel is hoping that we will have a full draft by the Fall 2023 IIW.
  • Sam Smith shared that there are a lot of issues that are so meaty that they require in-depth Github discussion. But what they really require for resolution is extended workshops.
  • We anticipate we will need some longer "TSP Workshops" and are planning those now.
  • Judith Fleenor advocated having as much discussion at IIW as possible.

ACDC TF — Sam Smith Philip Feairheller 

  • Sam Smith said that the TF continues to work with the W3C Verifiable Credential Data Model 2.0 WG.
  • The TF is also working to advance the KERI, CESR, and ACDC specs at IETF in San Francisco in late July.
  • Any supporters are urged to attend the BOF that will be held there.
  • 20-30 people are attending the bi-weekly meetings. The ACDC ecosystem is growing beyond GLEIF.

The goal is to have a complete first draft ToIP Glossary before the start of the Internet Identity Workshop on April 18. Drummond plans to hold at least one session on it there.
