The current Governance Template TF is proposing to relaunch in September as the Governance Architecture Task Force with a new focus on producing templates for specific ToIP-compliant GF components, vs. layer-specific GF templates. This TF would coordinate with the Technology Architecture Task Force to map GF templates to technology architecture components and functions.

• Savita Farooqui said that this is the same approach that the IEEE Blockchain Governance WG is taking. Each layer has its distinct components, and here is the governance framework you can apply to each component.
• Nicky Hickman : +100 governance is functional in the context of business, social and economic interactions AND is contextual where context is the ACTOR (#essif) components in the system.
• ACTION: Drummond Reed to connect Savita with the existing Task Force members to schedule one or more meetings to prep for the launch of the GATF.
• Savita made the point that governance is not just about the policies. She shared the model of "4P+I": People, Process, Policies, Practice + Incentives. Practice is the application of policies, i.e., putting the policies into practice.
• Nicky Hickman suggests that there is also E (economics) and S (social). Savita said she was thinking that was part of incentives.

See this draft mental model on governance from Rieks Joosten. He cannot join us today, but we can begin to study it and plan for a meeting with him on it.

It has been proposed that we take a summer break, recognizing "vacation season", and

reconvene in Sept.

ACTION: Drummond Reed to notify Elisa.
