As announced by Judith Fleenor on 25 August 2023 in an email to all members, the TSWG is transitioning from its current IPR mode (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 for copyright, W3C Mode for patents, Apache 2.0 for source code) to a new IPR mode (Open Web Foundation 1.0 for copyright and patent, Apache 2.0 for source code). 

On 23 August 2023, the ToIP Steering Committee passed a resolution approving this rechartering that directed the Executive Director and the TSWG Co-Chairs to take the following steps to carry out this resolution:

Kevin Griffin has volunteered to join Darrell O'Donnell and Drummond Reed as a third co-chair of the TSWG.

DECISION: Kevin Griffin Kevin Griffin welcomed as co-chair of the Technology Stack Working Group.

Technology Architecture TF — Wenjing Chu  Drummond Reed

• One of the three major tasks remaining (use cases, glossary, and 3rd generation ToIP stack diagram) is done! See the agenda item below.

• The same for the 3rd generation ToIP stack diagram, for which the new ToIP blog post about the Trust Spanning Protocol (see below) is a key input.

Trust Registry TF — Andor Kesselman Antti Kettunen  Darrell O'Donnell

• Work has split into two main efforts:
  • Trust Registry Protocol - getting to a v2 of the TRP
  • Profile Concept - how can a DID provide an indication of what services it provides? Extends DID Core specification (informally - using existing data structures)
    • DID Core - DID Doc points to a Trust Registry, but also shares the "things" that the DID endpoint supports.
