Mission
The mission of the ToIP Stack Design Principles (TSDP) Task Force is to draft a Design Principles deliverable specifying the overall design principles for the ToIP stack as a whole. These are the design principles that led to the original definition of the ToIP stack that is now being formally defined by the ToIP Technical Architecture Task Force of the Technical Stack WG and the ToIP Governance Architecture Task Force of the Governance Stack WG.
Deliverables
- Design Principles for the ToIP Stack—a specification of the overall design principles for the ToIP stack. This document is currently being drafted as a Google doc (please contact the leads if you are not able to access Google docs). Note that this will build upon other design principles deliverables from the TSWG and GSWG such as the Laws of Identity Design Principles, the Privacy by Design Principles, and the Principles of SSI.
NOTE: This deliverable (DP0034) consolidates the original proposals for two separate deliverables:
- DP0006 Technology Stack Design Principles
- DP0007 Governance Stack Design Principles
