Any news and updates of general interest to CTWG members

• Drummond Reed shared that ETSI, the EU technical standards body, is defining terms for the European Digital Identity Wallets initiative and we may influence those.

Update from Rieks on his thinking about Terms Tool 2.0 and any feedback from the posting of interested developers in the ToIP community.

• Rieks Joosten said that Sid responded to his request for volunteers for the ToIP Terms Tool 2.0 and they are now collaborating together.
• Sid has already begun a small prototype, starting with a Scope Administration File (SAF).
• At the moment he's developing in a local GitHub directory, but then we can work out where it will go in the ToIP GitHub.
• Drummond Reed suggested that Sid will benefit from a meeting with Daniel Hardman. Sid and Rieks agreed.
• ACTION: Drummond Reed to connect Sid Haniff and Rieks Joosten with Daniel Hardman to help with the transition from Terms Toolbox 1.0 to Terms Toolbox 2.0.
• All of this is currently documented in GitHub at https://essif-lab.github.io/framework/docs/tev2/tev2-overview
• Drummond Reed suggested that it is fine to continue in those repos; we can decide how to transition them to ToIP when the time is right.
• Drummond asked what else that CTWG members could do to assist.
• Rieks said that it would be helpful to have some additional "bricks" in the TT V2 infrastructure.
  • Sid said that the place he'd like the most help would be in the human-readable glossary side. These could be based on the general direction that Daniel Hardman started.
  • What Rieks would really like is to see if some academics using Latex could test the tooling to see if it could work with Latex white papers.
    • Carly Huitema would be one candidate.
    • Mary Lacity would be another.
  • ACTION: Sid Haniff will work with Rieks Joosten to write up a description of the skill set(s) that will be most helpful with the next set of "bricks".

Huge kudos to Daniel Hardman for creating https://github.com/trustoverip/hxwg and https://trustoverip.github.io/hxwg/glossary. Nicky can update us on progress.

• Nicky is working on the terms wiki for the Harms Task Force and other uses in the HXWG.
• Also very much needed for market-facing language.
• Nicky will be one curator for the HXWG glossary. 
• ACTION: Nicky Hickman will recruit at least one additional curator for the HXWG glossary.

The TATF is ready now for its own terms wiki to support the ToIP Technology Architecture Specification. The URL should be https://github.com/trustoverip/tswg.

• As an interim measure, they are already gathering terms in this Google doc.
• The TSWG terms wiki should have the same relationship to the ToIP Core terms wiki (https://github.com/trustoverip/toip/wiki) as the GSWG terms wiki (https://github.com/trustoverip/gswg/wiki). 
• Rieks Joosten shared a concern that terms wikis do not have clear "ownership".
  
  • He suggests that the home page for each terms wiki include some standard metadata.
  • Contact information for at least one, preferably more than one, curators
  • A pointer about where to go with any issues (email, Slack channel, etc.)
  • A status indicator, i.e., in drafting, stable, in transition, etc.
  • A statement of the license for the content in the terms wiki (e.g., the standard ToIP license)
  • This is summarized in https://essif-lab.github.io/framework/docs/tev2/tev2-spec-saf#terminology — this should tell you anything related to the scope.
  • Brian Dill suggests that in the documentation we include a table of name/value pairs of this metadata.
  • Rieks Joosten seconded that and said it is required for ingestion.
• Rieks recommended that the contributors to the wiki follow the advice in the links below.
