Re: [Agenda] Tokenization task force call on 9 May 2017

Ian,

I think it would be useful to understand the full lifestyle of these
different tokens so it's clearer who can issue and process them.

With that clarity it becomes easier to determine where standardisation
provides value.

It also helps to understand who the various participants are that are
involved and how the payment method must accommodate them.

Is that lifestyle documented anywhere?
