Internet Identity Workshop - Takeaways
- David Luchuk invited members to share their reflections and takeaways form the recent Internet Identity Workshop (IIW) event.
- Daniel Bachenheimer discussed how IIW allowed him to participate in a discussion about previous models developed by Kaliya Young and reframe them in a new light.
- Paul Knowles observed that many IIW participants were concerned about the size of messages being carried by QR Codes, and that space is opening in the community for more focus on data exchange and consent models.
- Ken Adler (Deactivated) indicated his main takeaway was the rich discussion about cryptographic accumulators and the relationships built by digging into this question.
- Drummond Reed discussed the Good Health Pass Governance Architecture, which was presented at the event, and suggested that Good Health Pass was a poster child for the usefulness of the Trust over IP model and approach.
- Sumiran Garg commented that the QiqoChat integration presentation and discussion led by Mike Vesey and Karl Kneis was a highlight of her first IIW.
