• New Members: 

• Current work

  • Spec repo is here https://github.com/trustoverip/tswg-did-method-webs-specification
    • Registered in the did registry here https://w3c.github.io/did-spec-registries/#did-methods
  • Reference implementation is here https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/did-webs-resolver

• Charles Lanahan is walking through the CESR spec and has been providing PRs/Issues for the spec as he implements a CESR parser.

Catchup on final changes status:

• Diagraming in ToIP
  • An index of diagrams would help
    • a markdown table that provides metadata/context that allows for the community to determine the usefulness/reputation of the diagram.
    • Lets start with KERISSE (at least for KERI related diagrams?). Perhaps this will expand to the wider ToIP ecosystem.
      • Broken links checker is automated and will help us maintain.
      • Medium articles can be scraped as well.
  • Diagrams should be close to their origin (ie. in the repo it applies to) but linking can lead to drill-down, discovery, and more
    • Discussions on the diagram occur within the repo. It may prompt discussion at a higher level (repo), etc.
  • Needs to be very dynamic, PRs etc. will result in updates, removal, etc.
  • Some are informational, some map a spec, some are future ideas, etc.
  • A decentralized model is necessary in order to maintain what diagrams are important, useful, out-of-date
• Henk reference impl article discussion:
  • Goal: drive the interest of doing a did:webs implementation
  • Target: people who want the discoverability of did:web but additional security features to mitigate the common security problems of web-based technology. Organizational identity requires nuance, resilience, and trust this is an easy target group who requires maximal security. The target group need identity that is even more decentralized than public/private ledgers.
  • The LEI naturally extends to the needs for the vLEI and for did methods like did:webs. Banking, supply chain, regulatory reporting (for instance EBA pilot).
  • USP: separation of authorisation of your identifier and domain control. No longer dependent on domains.
• Implementors draft, to get multiple implementations to verify the steps
  • Quality check on the spec
  • Should be able to show interop between implementations
  • This allows us to enter 'final' public review
  • This should be socialized that more implementations are needed as a next step that we would like to help support
• Separating the admin control from did:web, to provide separate signing control is a big step.
  • Wording this in a way that helps those outside our community to understand/appreciate that step is extremely valuable.
• What needs to be completed to enter the public review process?
  • Whois PR
  • Normative/Informative
  • Service endpoint section updates
  • KERIpy release candidate https://pypi.org/project/keri/#history

• Todos and missing information sections need to be addressed today
  • Milestone for 1.0 https://github.com/trustoverip/tswg-did-method-webs-specification/milestone/2
• Reivew current state of hyperledger-labs did:webs reference implementation https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/did-webs-resolver 
• Open PRs and Issues
