  • Ecosystem defined? Redefined? 
    • I think that the "Ecosystem" is the consumer experience created from collection of the design principles adopted at the layers 3,2 and 1. So for instance if subsidiarity does not exist in the design, you will likely see ecosystems which are highly centralized with specific attributes within the ecosystem members. Note that this is a somewhat contrived example.
    • Kyle's governance also defines ecosystem as between two parties (I think that's what it says)
    • This is different from the eSSIF lab definition. In eSSIF, a community is at least 2 parties, an ecosystem is something else.
    • https://essif-lab.pages.grnet.gr/framework/docs/terms/ecosystem. also defined as at least 2 parties by essif https://trustoverip.github.io/essiflab/glossary.html#E
    • “An ecosystem is distinct from a community in the sense that it is not (necessarily) an organization that (actively) facilitates the cooperation between its members. A community is considered a specialization of the more generic 'ecosystem' concept.”
    • Layer 4 was always APPLICATION ecosystem not just ecosystem.
    • Ecosystem is what needs to be governed. The governance is not about how the ecosystem works, but more importantly, how the ecosystem interacts with other ecosystems. (meta-ecosystems) This can almost be a Layer 5.
    • Example: I like the credit card system - but it is also quite a centralized model. The credit card is the keystone species ?? remove it and the ecosystem collapses
      (credit card organization like Mastercard). 
    • This is in motion. 
  • Wanted:
    • Tools for SSI adoption... Where's the money in all this? Business cases? 
    • Tools for navigationimplementers and governors... Tools to assess the quality of governance. 
    • Ongoing process of discovery and thought leadership leading to understanding and practical tools.  Quick blog posts vs white papers as thought leadership.
