Highlights from IIW including from Wenjing's presentation of the ToIP stack
The slide deck that Wenjing Chu presented (fabulously) is here.
Key takeaways:
Very strong interest among the OpenID community about "incorporating" SSI and decentralized identity model.
Wenjing Chu felt that the reference model will be a good tool for the dialog with the OIDC community about interoperability. Our ToIP Technology Architecture Specification will give us a solid basis for that conversation and help us carefully evaluate the tradeoffs.
Wenjing also gave a session on Identity in the Age of AI that brought new concepts for how to think about identity that is more holistic and inclusive of the many different inputs and contexts of digital identity.
Sam Smith and the GLEIF team also gave several well-received presentations about KERI and ACDC credentials.
GLEIF brought their entire team and held a total of 12 sessions on all facets of what they are building and starting POCs for with vLEI infrastructure.

Incorporating Wenjing's reference architecture into the spec
Darrell said that his team was able to convert the spec to Markdown.
Now they are processing the outstanding comments.
He would like to take roughly 20 mins in each of the two meetings of the TATF next week to review the comments on this spec.
The goal is to finalize V1 and put it up for the Steering Committee vote.
There is a growing realization in the market that trust registries will be required and that they will need to interoperate as peers—Drummond gave another example from Australia.
Darrell gave the example of a Canadian province that sees that they need to interoperate as peers with hundreds of others.
Neil Thomson has requested a topic to talk about the role of intermediaries.
There are several key ways in which two entities that have established trust can then involve intermediary.
This in particular will involve how data exchange is accomplished.
Antti Kettunen said he just had a discussion with the International Data Spaces people about the role of intermediaries in the exchange of data. The IDS people have "connectors of controllers" for managing that.
ACTION: Neil Thomson to chat with Wenjing about how intermediaries fit into the architecture—for example how the role that MyData defines as a "MyData operator" would fit.
Drummond Reed will most likely miss the next two meetings due to travel.
