RFC Progress Other Business Scheduling future meetingsJanuary 1: Cancelled January 15: Need to select a topic Aries language wrappersConnect-a-thon proposal: let's only build Frameworks instead of SDKs—let's be opinionated! Simplify the experience of a new developer.Merge the SDK and the Framework repositories so developers don't have to choose between them.aries-sdk-go should merge into aries-framework-go aries-sdk-javascript should move into aries-framework-javascript other SDKs renamed as Frameworks? Can have a separate SDK artifact in the Framework repository, if desired. When can we deprecate the Indy SDK wrappers?Overlap in development between Indy and Aries. New developers should start in Aries. Hard to maintain CI / CD and do bug fixes for environments and wrappers we don't use. IS-1423 for DotNet, because the Aries Framework is mature. IS-1424 for Java, JavaScript, Android, iOS Challenges with Python Misalignment between RFC 0094 and ACA-PyACA-Py pull request: https://github.com/hyperledger/aries-cloudagent-python/pull/240 Evernym products and Pico implemented one way, ACA-Py and DotNetFramework implemented the other. Resolution will be a breaking change. A breaking change will be needed in the near future to implement Tobias' proposed changes to the envelope format.
