This meeting focused on pull request #45, which splits Agent Identity
out of protocol.html into three companion documents: a common HTTP
authentication specification, DID-method binding profiles for did:wba,
native did:web, and did:webvh, and a standalone did:wba method
specification. Sean presented a 10-minute talk and FAQ on that
architecture. The DID method name is treated as authoritative, with no
fallback after a failed resolution. The presentation slides are
attached to this email.

Song also reported on 3GPP CT WG3 activity during the same week,
including a DID-based Agentic Network proposal for 6G, and shared 3GPP
Highlights Issue 12. That newsletter’s article “AI and Agentic
Protocols for 6G” describes ANP as an open-source protocol introduced
at a W3C WebAgents CG conference, with a three-layer architecture
covering identity and secure communication, a meta-protocol, and
application-level agent description and discovery.

We welcome review comments on PR #45, and any comments on the minutes
or on the topics discussed.
