Post-Approval Actions

@Darrell O'Donnell

Multiple things need to happen post SC-vote


IMMEDIATELY:

  • PR merged - Document is live: https://trustoverip.github.io/tswg-trust-registry-protocol/

    • (PR was already approved by @Drummond Reed, but we needed the SC vote results)

  • DOI at Zenodo - Darrell & Carly will get this handled

    • Q to @Carly Huitema - what happens when/if TRQP v2.0 is revised. In the academic world this would be similar to an errata and re-publishing.

  • Permalink NOT working yet - ToIP Webmaster - Darrell & Carly will coordinate to get this published at a permalink location

    •  

LATER:

  • Tag the release as ToIP Approved v2.0

  • SpecUp - need to see if we can create a dual (v2.0 ToIP Approved and any “live draft” version.

  • SpecUp-T migration
