Notes

  • Good Health Pass

  • What's Holding Us Back?

    • Tech depth - folks may not know what they can add to.

    • Biting off more than we can chew - e.g. Layer interleaves are a lot of (unpaid) work, requires depth (capability) and too much work (capacity)

    • Amount of work is causing missed deadlines - too much? too fast?

    • Concisely explain a specific topic - may help others recognize that there are places to contribute.

    • Education of folks is hard - base knowledge needed to start contributing. Blockchain, DIDComm, business use cases, + governance.

  • Get something out ASAP - startup approach for v1.0 being nearly embarassing. 

    • "Big 4" - Laws of Identity, Principles of SSI, 

  • Can we simplify the 4-layer 

    • v1.0 points to an exemplar that is breaking things down 

      • e.g. Layer 1/2 

      • Conceptual:

        • here is what the Layers are...

        • here is what the interconnects are - how the layers interact

        • Here is where we: KNOW, THINK WE KNOW, HAVE A HUNCH, GOT IT WRONG

    • GHP has been a cutting function - 

TSWG Trust Registry TF

  • loose consensus - create TF

  • loose consensus - create Draft Deliverable 

  • loose consensus - 4-Layer Explainer

BIG 4

  • Gov Arch TSS (RFC conversion - gov side)

  • Tech Arch TSS (RFC conversion - tech side)

  • Design Principles ToIP Stack

  • Intro to ToIP whitepaper v2

CLEANUP

  • Take table, clean up (D&D), copy up to TSWG main page.
