Announcements

  • NEW Contributor / Marketing Committee meeting (Jessica Rampen)
    • new contributor and marketing committee meetings starting.
    • second Wednesday every month.
    • kick-off one is wednesday September 11th.
    • goal is to focus on improving communication between technical leaders and marketing of HL projects.
    • it is up on the community calendar.

Items of discussion

  • Maintainer Summit Outreach from TSC members
    • Scheduled for October this year.
    • Would like to make sure that each project is reached out to and invited to attend.
    • The space has room for 40 people and we have 50 people on the list. We should probably be able to fill the space.
  • Gardener Proposal
    • A blockchain oracle that seeks to be secure and trustworthy.
    • This allows blockchains to access external data.
    • Currently integrates with ethereum only but there is an abstraction that allows for integration in other blockchains.
    • Current supported use cases:
      • Accessing data via URL API.
      • Generating a random number.
    • Uses Intel SGX to secure the implementation.
    • There's potential overlap with TCF project and maybe the teams should meet and figure out if there is a path forward with cooperating/merging.
    • Any overlap analysis with regards to verifiable credentials? Not at the moment, but it would be interesting.
    • Does Garderner support a decentralized oracle service similar to the way that Indy works?
      • There are several approaches but currently none are implemented.
  • Hyperledger Besu Proposal
    • An open source ethereum client written in Java.
    • Launched last year at devcon.
    • Strong statements of support from TSC members.
    • Consensys' goal is to grow contributor list and to be an engaged member of the Hyperledger community.
    • What would be a good place to start for Besu to integrate with an existing HL project(s)?
      • There's lots of opportunities to collaborate with Quilt and Burrow.
      • Confidence that more collaborations with other projects make sense as well.
    • What about Besu use as an EVM?
      • It's not intended to be an alternative EVM but it does bring some different features.
      • The use of Java is not an issue because the interop is usually done at higher levels so cross-language support is not a problem.
      • Having a bunch of different languages used in Hyperledger provides a broader opportunity for more developers to contribute.
    • Is eWASM in scope for Besu? If it is in scope, is there an integration hook that would allow Transact to work with Besu?
      • Currently eWASM doesn't have a final version and won't be in EVM 1.x.
      • If it becomes part of ethereum then Besu will probably pick it up, but currently it isn't ready yet.

Quarterly updates

  • Grid
    • No  issues currently.
    • Trying to figure out how to run sprints with a wide distribution of contributors and settled on JIRA which is working out great.
    • Added to the governance including a GS1 sub-team which include members from Target and GS1.
    • The PSWG will probably reach out to the GS1 sub-team soon so that benchmark tools can be developed to give performance feedback to the project.
  • Transact
  • TWGC
    • Overall, the working group is pretty active. ~40 attendees to each bi-weekly meeting.
    • One issue with translating the docs and they have reached out to the Fabric maintainers to fix the issue once they move to Github. TransFx seems like a good solution.
    • Hosted six meetups in the last quarter along with one online-only meetup.
      • ~50 attendees for the online-only meetup. The virtual meetups are easier for getting presence in China.
    • On track with more meetups and mentoring Chinese developers on how to bring their projects to the HL community.
