Kyle's presentation referred to this wiki: https://github.com/bcgov/bc-vcpedia/wiki

First Scott explained that the next steps to build on the ToIP governance metamodel is to begin developing layer-specific templates.

  • The natural place for this to start is with ToIP Layer 1 public utilities. Utility Foundry WG co-chairs Alex Tweeddale and Lynn Bendixsen are here to talk to that today.
  • Kyle Robinson will talk about the needs at Layer 3.

Second, Kyle gave a presentation about the governance framework work they are doing in British Columbia.

  • He began by showing a view of the 4-layer ToIP stack that fills in all of the requirements for a full operational instance of the stack (see screenshot #1 below).
    • The left side shows the technology stack implementation that BC Gov is using.
    • The right side shows the different governance frameworks involved.
  • He then showed a diagram from the ToIP interactive model that fills in the different parties involved in the digital trust ecosystems being developed in British Columbia (see screenshot #2 below).
    • Kyle stressed that an "ecosystem" can be very simple.
    • Also, two ecosystems can intersect with each other and produce synergies without any formal recognition of each other.
    • Nicky Hickman: I love the idea of fuzzy boundaries - I guess this is where the semantics comes in - the same credential might mean something in different ecosystems. Contextual and dynamic policy & governance
  • Stephen Curran asked a question about separation and avoiding dependencies. He asked for examples of Layer 3 specific credential governance frameworks (CFGs).
  • Kyle then showed examples from the BC Gov "verifiable credentials wiki" at https://github.com/bcgov/bc-vcpedia/wiki of how educational credentials work in BC Gov governance frameworks that are in development.

Finally, Scott Perry said that he is going to create 8 placeholder documents:

  • 4 layer-specific templates
  • 4 Companion Guides

He stressed that they will be "messy" for quite a while, however that's where we will start to aggregate all the pieces that will eventually go into the final deliverables.
