Introduction
The Technology Stack Working Group and its Taskforces incubate, design, test and recommend for adoption the components and combinations of technical elements that span all four layers of the ToIP stack and comprise a complete, interoperable instance of the model.
Scope
Define (directly or by reference) the technical standards, test suites, and interoperability certification standards for the Trust over IP architecture stack as defined in Hyperledger Aries RFC 0289 (or its successor as identified in the RFC document itself).
Meetings
Schedule:
US/EU: meetings are held bi-weekly, every second (TBC)
APAC: TBC
See the Meeting Page for agendas, notes and recordings for all meetings.
Deliverables
- Laws of Identity (status: PROPOSED) - intended to explain how ToIP maps to Kim Cameron's work.
| Key Document | Mission | Members | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Privacy by Design | Submit a ToIP Design Principles Deliverable. | 2021-05-31 ACTION DARRELL - find status (git, Google Doc, etc.) to prepare for CLOSEOUT | |
| Laws of Identity | Submit a ToIP Design Principles Deliverable. | Chris Buchanan (lead) | DRAFT HERE (Google Docs) 2021-05-31 ACTION DARRELL - find status (git, Google Doc, etc.) to prepare for CLOSEOUT |

| TSWG 4-Layer Model | Create a short (5-10 page) document that describes what each layer does, how they interact, and key decisions that need to be made. | Darrell O'Donnell (lead) << NEED MORE >> | Top-Down using HL-Aries for Layers 2/3 and HL-Indy and Trustbloc/Orb as Layer 1 implementations. GOAL: Get something out. EARLY SKELETON DOC |
| TSWG Glossary | Collaborate with CTWG on the process and delivery of a TSWG Glossary. | RJ Reiser (lead) | Glossary is an ongoing effort. Any updates? "Big 4" should be referencing and be consistent (use terms, introduce new terms if absolutely required). |

Start with TSS0001 as beginning. CHALLENGE - Review TSS0001 to get a grounding in what is required here. Content will be extracted from current state of WP0010. Goal here is to adapt Hyperledger Aries RFC289 into a Tech Spec. | |
ToIP Stack Design Principles Task Force (DP0034) | Combined Principles doc for the ToIP Stack. Part of "Big 4" deliverables. | See Wiki discussion draft as well as the Big 4 description.
