Task Force SOS (Scrum of Scrums)

TF Name	Mission	Members	Status
Utility Project Implementation Guide Task Force	Create the getting started guide for prospective Utility Projects.	Lynn Bendixsen (lead) Dave McKay	*IG0029: Utility Project Guide* A new repo has been created and the TF has issued its first objective. Lynn seeks assistance on repo publishing with Mac. TF is discussing outline and questions to be answered for prospective projects. Draft Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zysi79y5vxNBxhL7yI0M6FAViC_E2VUutUfT5Eac7CA/edit?usp=sharing Initial released version: https://trustoverip.github.io/IG0029-utility-project-guide/
Best Practices Task Force	Analyze Project Interviews, establish list of Best Practices and submit each BP using ToIP Deliverables Process.	Mathieu Glaude (lead) Claudia Grytz Lynn Bendixsen @Sarah Olfert Dave McKay	Drafting framework for evaluating public identity utilities (BP0014) (v2) Drafting v1 of three BP documents (based on feedback from interviews with decentralized PIU conveners/providers)* BP0015 - Assessing Sustainability of a PIU (v1) BP0016 - Determining Affordability of a PIU (v1) BP0017 - Assessing Alignment to a PIU Backlog Dashboard Health / Network Monitoring (Example) At future point, consider consolidating all best practices into one comprehensive document SUGGESTION: Interlocking with Saturn-V TF as a first use*r of these Best Practices.
Decentralization Task Force	Submit a BP deliverable and a design principle for what it means to be Decentralized.	Jessica Townsend (lead) Mathieu Glaude	DP0005: Decentralization by Design What are the key attributes of a Decentralized Utility? Should we consider / review the W3C DID Decentralization Rubric Consider their dimensions for evaluation Spectrum of Decentralization Working docs: Decentralized Network Best Practices and Decentralized Network Design Principles
Glossary Task Force	Generate a UFWG Glossary in collaboration with the CTWG.	RJ Reiser (lead)	Still pending CTWG process. Submissions under review.

Decision Points

Discussion Items

W3C DiD Rubric working group follow up - need to make connection - Joel Andrew/Daniel Harden (invite to next call for update)
Keep existing document (look to publish); follow up deliverable - expand criteria and compare to Markus and team - comparison framework to map against different utilities and W3C DiD Working Group method (more visual document) make reference to prior work as part of deliverable (alignment with other community efforts)
Review original analysis and DiD Rubric; cross reference
Terms in deliverable - bold and input definition; likely close out the Glossary Task Force unless further update provided - any unique terms in UFWG should be added into ToIP General Corpus
Layer 1 Framework with Tech Arch Taskforce; Alex to join call
Create a blog to attract new members - new leadership, 2022 initiatives, who to contact and get involved to be posted to website
what other utilities are out to join in members - register with ToIP; target specific people with specific request for input
- make list of utilities up and coming - contacts - strategy for discussing to become members
Utility overviews - schedule for introducing other utilities/guest speakers; update and newly featured - work through updates of DiD Utility Comparison document
DiD Utility Comparison - add a descriptor and purpose of the network to help in evaluation of networks
Priority Deliverables - Public Identity Utilities for Digital Trust Ecosystems, Comparison document, DiD Utility Comparison
Relay to broader ToIP the other deliverables we have targeted to garner interest in carrying forward; how do deliverables use artifacts, order to be read - someone comes in new as a beginner and needs to get educated
