Notes

1. New members
2. Priorities for q1 2021: In their meeting last week, the ToIP Steering Committee clarified the following four priorities in this order:
   
   1. Focus on baseline deliverables—especially those in the charters of the GSWG and TSWG.
      1. Rieks Joosten asked about quality vs. deadlines. Drummond Reed said that quality is more important than the deadline, but that we are trying to set reasonable targets for this baseline layer.
      2. We also had a side discussion about "qualified data" as an set of infrastructure services as described in Rieks Joosten's paper on Decentralized SSI Governance. Drummond agrees with that metaphor.
   2. Support emergence of digital trust ecosystems—especially those with the potential to gain quick market traction.
   3. Develop and deliver our Communications Strategy and Editorial Calendar—this includes a schedule of at-least-monthly webinars and blog posts coordinated across the WGs.
      1. Examples: Decentralized SSI Governance webinar, Guardianship webinar.
   4. Implement a more robust resource/revenue model—with our rapid growth in 2020 and the strong market demand for ToIP solutions, it is clear we need more resources to help members achieve deliverables and promote ToIP.
3. Discuss Specification for Creating and Using Terms
4. Request to publish glossary for the Sovrin Utility Governance Framework and Sovrin Ecosystem Governance Framework
5. Any other business
