Consider use of "DID method enum" spec ← This is going to be paired with existing work.

Update Scope · Issue #61 · trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol ← this has a PR now.

Recognition · Issue #58 · trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol ← needs follow up.

[TRQP-4] Change OpenAPI specifications to be bound to specifically RESTful implementation · Issue #56 · trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol ← blocked by a common data model

Thoughts on Data Models, Interoperability, and Querying Trust Registries · Issue #21 · trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol ← aligned to the work we are doing today on the common data models.

https://github.com/trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol/issues/4 ← responded. moving this along.

2024-11-21 TRTF Meeting Notes

  • Scope : What’s a problem for us vs. a problem for the ecosystem to figure out?

    • Desire for an implementers guide was requested.

  • Interaction Pattern Documentation : Discussed as Supporting but informs spec. Non-normative.

TRQP Common Data Model Work 

Andor

Starting point: Common Data Model

Review and then follow up :

A. Crowdsource: What fundamental questions must be supported by the TRQP?

  • TRQP Notes And Updates

  • From@Drummond Reed : It seems like we have two categories of queries: graph traversal queries (to get to the authoritative TR) and then authorization queries (once you have located the authoritative TR).

  • What about “provide me a certificate I can use to verify a signature”? Is that an authorisation query?

  • With OID federation,

    • Do we have a common root?

    • Are you authorized to issue attestations?

    • Do we share a governance framework that governs this authorization

    • Do we have a common ancestor?

    • Multiple small questions.

TRQP Notes And Updates

  • From 11/21/2024

    • Abstract Data Model Formalization Introduce an abstract data model that serves as a foundation for formalizing implementations. This model will standardize core concepts and provide a consistent framework for compliant systems and variants. 

      • Needs a simple and clear way to traverse trust networks.

      • Tim Bouma Context. Represented by an identifier. Signature is applied to context. Tuple. 

      • Fabrice Rochette: @Drummond Reed agree, that’s why we should keep it simple, and maybe focus on authorization queries first.

      • Has Z granted Y to X. 

      • Drummond Reed: Context: Governance Framework. Authorization can expressed as an identifier in a way that other systems don't need to understand semantics.

      • Tim Bouma : Simplicity of the spec
