5 minHeads up on W3C Credentials Community Group work itemChairs

As an FYI, the W3C Credentials Community Group (CCG) has adopted a work item on "Verifiable Issuers and Verifiers" based on this 2022 Rebooting the Web of Trust paper: https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/rwot11-the-hague/blob/master/final-documents/verifiable-issuers-and-verifiers.pdf

Savita Farooqui : TRAIN (using DNS-based trust) is another input

  • Mathieu Glaude : Projects referenced in the paper that I’m assuming all need good understanding/alignment: EBSI Trusted Issuer Registry, ETSI TS 119 612, eSSIF-Lab TRAIN, the Trust over IP Foundation Trust Registry Protocol
    • DNS being brought up frequently. 
  • Neil Thomson : Projects referenced in the paper that I’m assuming all need good understanding/alignment: EBSI Trusted Issuer Registry, ETSI TS 119 612, eSSIF-Lab TRAIN, the Trust over IP Foundation Trust Registry Protocol
  • Drummond Reed interesting to consider how DNS will inform TR work. 
  • Savita Farooqui : All registries and the overlap with TR are to consider. 
  • Drummond Reed : AIDs (Autonomous Identifiers ): You can discover an AID anywhere and independently verify it. 
  • Savita Farooqui : What provides trust. 
  • Tim Bouma : Experimenting with blind signatures. Trust is context. 

----- APAC

  • Darrell O'Donnell very similar to v1
  • Drummond Reed Useful to look at the content of that paper as source of reqs. 
  • EU Identity Wallet Framework: Trust List vs. Trust Registries.  
  • GCCN and WHO are one of the earliest stakeholders coming out of the 1.0 work we did.
  • Darrell O'Donnell : TRAIN, Machine Readable Governance (DIF TE), DNSSec and CIRA
20 minsAlignment on a way forwardChairs

Proposal of a way forward that people can align on. 

Drummond Reed

  • What is the deliverable? 
  • And how does it fit into the Technology Architecture Task Force. 

Jo Spencer :

  • Has to align with the Tech Arch framework.
  • Worth defining the features of capabilities
  • Framework of understanding the context of trust registries.

Darrell O'Donnell :  Having something concrete to talk to helps answering the questions. 

Drummond Reed : EU using OpenID for VC. In a year long period, being referenced. Also WHO.

  •  Proposal: Move v1 spec into subfolder. v2 spec work starts. 
  • Proposal: Work off Github issues and discussions or continue to work on google docs
        * Propose options to the group. Let's settle this soon? 
    • Drummond Reed concerned about async and dominant work.
      • +1 
      • Darrell: OK but be careful about things that are "churning and burning"
      • Drummond Reed Trust decision and modeling a good start. 
  • Github Discussions
  • Goals of the Task Force? 
            * What are the ambitions of the task force. 
        * Audience?
            * To be discussed. See the deliverable doc.
        * Scope: 
            * Proposal: Scope of this task force is to build a model that supports $c_{\text{trust services}}$ and allows additional $c$ to be incorporated in the data models.
        * Adoption
            * How will the work we do become adopted? What are the challenges? Make this into an discussion we can iterate over. 
        * Deliverables
15 minsPrimary modelsAndor Kesselman 

Primary models and basic evolution approach for future versions

Tim Bouma :Transfer function: Time and utility preference. ( Trust decision framework mapping )

Drummond Reed  v1 spec: 
    * Verifiable issuers vs. Verifiable verifiers. 
    * @Darrell: Context was required to authorize issuers vs. verifiers. RWOT: naive. Assurance framework not the whole picture.

Tim Bouma : risk transfer vs. accountability transfer. Risk management function. 

* **Trust Action Model**: $h(g(f(C, x)))$ 
    * where: 
        * $f(C, x)$ is a trust embedding 
        * $g(f(C, x))$ is a trust decision
        * $h(g(f(C, x))) = z$ represents an action (or effect) based upon a trust decision. It chooses $z_i \in \mathbb{Z}$ where $\mathbb{Z}$ represents a set of possible effects from a trust decision. 
        * $C$ is the decision context
        * $x$ is the set of claims
    * Scope: This task force is focused on supporting system around $c_{\text{trust services}}$ and the data models in $x$, which represent claims. While recommendations may be provided on the other functions, anything outside of $c_{\text{trust services}}$ and $x$ is considered non-normative and out of scope. Some ways this translates within the deliverable:
        * Specification Deliverable
            * Service Discovery
            * Containers
            * Data Models
            * APIs 
        * Companion Guide:
            * Recommendations and best practices
* $\{c_i, c_j\} \in C$ where C is the decision context and $c_i, c_j$, are different data contexts. 
* $x$ represents claim data

  • Uses past experiences in context
  • Recursive quality around this. 
5 minsCollaboration toolsAll
  • Agreement about how to move forward on collaboration. Google docs or Github
  • Darrell: to send out a doodle poll
  • Darrell O'Donnell  : we need to be involved in the schemas. Get alignment so we aren't antagonistic. 
  • Drummond Reed : need to align interests.
