- Important Things (opinion of Sam)
- Continuity of Community
- Meetings, Wikis, Calls, Calendars
- All existing people, work continues with as little disruption as possible.
- This should not be an issue, as long as organizational support is present.
- Continuity of Brand
- Aries as a brand needs to live in only one place, at least for the near future.
- Wiki Page: Hyperledger Aries (wiki page)
- Announcement Post: https://www.hyperledger.org/blog/2019/05/14/announcing-hyperledger-aries-infrastructure-supporting-interoperable-identity-solutions
- Promotion of Community
- Continuity of Community
- Notes from this meeting
- Items that are expected by the community from OpenWallet Foundation
- Education
- Webinars
- Blogs
- Meetups
- Marketing committee (Helen)
- long overdue work that could help clarify Aries brand.
- Hyperledger brand refresh under way (late June)
- Two topics
- Aries scope
- What is it
- Set of frameworks that can work with protocols, credential types, crypto, etc. from a wide variety of sources. - John Jordan
- SSI built on top of DIDComm, primarily using HL Indy - Timo (what it is now)
- Has grown past that - Andre
- My own interpretation is that Aries is the protocol which verifiable credentials are issued, held, and presented. Right now the protocol is didcomm/anoncreds/indy based. But those are evolving to be abstracted and support other standards (transport, credential format/type, and ledger agnostic) - Clecio
- foundation / underpinning is indy, anoncreds, and didcomm. Perception outside our group is that Aries IS those things. - Warren
- Wallet vs Agent terms
- What happens if work exceeds that scope?
- What is it
- Potential move to OWF
- Aries scope
- What is the pitch from OWF?
- (every other week is a conflict for the OWF Technical Advisory Council)
- Aries is a few things (mechanically)
- Software
- Protocol Design
- Aries Interop Profile
- Interop Testing
- OCA
- Items that are expected by the community from OpenWallet Foundation
- Notes from last meeting on the topic
- The Opportunity
- A potential re-homing of Aries to OWF
- The Circumstances
- Community needs decisions together
- The Challenges
- Notes on discussion and questions to be clarified
- High ambition level of OWF
- Goal is to create code that has relevance in code that meets regulatory requirements (e.g. as part of the EU Digital Identity Wallet)
- Aries features and approaches can gain better representation in compliance and regulatory settings employing wallets (key leverage point for Aries community)
- Outreach to European Commission already established at OWF
- Funding
- 300 orgs listed in doc
- https://openwallet.foundation/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2023/02/OpenWallet-Foundation-Overview.pdf
- 41 listed current sponsors
- 7 million draft budget?
- Funding state? Will fundraising match needs?
- Difficulty of orgs being members of All The Things.
- Time
- Money
- Project Support from Hyperledger
- Hyperledger social reach is larger
- Training workshop organized by HyperLedger
- Code and Standards being co-located in the same org is difficult
- Aries implementing standards designed outside of Aries
- mDL
- OpenID4VerifiableCredentials
- Beyond Aries?
- OWF explicitly does not want to create standards, OWF core is creating code to implement standards
- Perception of the scope of Aries? What Aries does/is:
- RfCs
- Code matching RfCs
- Interop Profiles
- ToDo: More clearly communicate what Aries does, also towards OWF
- High ambition level of OWF
- The Opportunity
