• INDY-2305: Add IP address range for outbound TCP connections from validator nodes
  • Changes the way nodes are represented in the Pool Ledger.
IS-1099: anoncreds.prover_get_credentials_for_proof_req should return per-credential timestampShould we allow duplicate credentials from the same issuer?Changes to the Transaction Author Agreement
• Migrating LibIndy to Aries
  
  • Indy Resolver becomes Indy-Aries-VDRI
    • Can wait to follow the DID-resolution spec, because the spec doesn't have enough detail today.
  • Indy Anoncreds becomes Aries-Shared-Creds-Anoncreds or Indy-Aries-Anoncreds
    • We prefer keeping it as a separate repo in Indy until another ledger shows interest.
    • We considered Aries-Shared-Creds-Anoncreds, but it is likely that it is closely tied to Indy at least in the short term. The interface should live in Aries.
  • Indy Wallet becomes Aries-Shared-KMS
    • Includes plugin interface
    • Aries-Shared-KMS-PostgreSQL
    • Aries-Shared-KMS-SQLite
• Evernym can assist with:
