Topic: Introductions and Reintroductions

Jarlath O'Carroll:  Hi, my name is Jarlath O'Carroll, I founded a 
  company called Jobspeaker 8 years ago. We help college students 
  help get jobs with colleges and employers. There are some 
  interesting overlaps with what we do and what this group is 
  doing. [scribe assist by Manu Sporny]

Topic: New DID Spec PR

Manu Sporny: https://github.com/w3c-ccg/did-spec/pull/22
Kim Hamilton Duffy: Human readable: 
  https://msporny.github.io/did-spec/
Manu Sporny:  Pull request has 22 commits, deals with multiple 
  things...
  ...modifications to spec where consensus was found (at RWOT)
Manu Sporny: Human readable version: 
  https://msporny.github.io/did-spec/
  ...terminology now updated (unlike prior work which was just 
  based on examples)
Ryan Grant:  How many people have had time to read wording? 
  [scribe assist by Kim Hamilton Duffy]
Ryan Grant:  I can volunteer to review
Manu Sporny:  Looking for other volunteers.  Timeframe Tuesday.
Manu Sporny: Volunteers to review... Kim, Christopher, Drummond, 
  Ryan
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Confirms deadline one week, and looking for 
  volunteers
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  There is a polyfill issue with claims 
  signing
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Looking for a way to get David Chadwick into 
  call
Dave Longley:  David Chadwick was scheduled to talk about his 
  protocol, so this is unfortunate
Moses Ma: I can update on verifiable news

Topic: Verifiable News

Moses Ma:  Verifiable News has a Table of Contents, people are 
  working on it.  "smaller" group of eight people will release 
  first draft, which will then be shared for wider comments.
Moses Ma:  Plan is to have draft ready for W3C Technical Plenary
Moses Ma:  I have joined a VC firm - stark capital, one focus is 
  verifiable claims.
Manu Sporny:  VC WG discussion debriefing
Manu Sporny:  Confirms Ed and Moses will be there.
Dan Burnett:  Discussion of agenda for W3C, can put Verifiable 
  News on there
Manu Sporny:  First proposal will not have VCs
Manu Sporny:  Is recapping discussion with Ed and Sandro
Moses Ma:  Clarifies that the whitepaper is an overview, where 
  VCs are appropriate
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Asks how much time Verifiable News needs at 
  TPAC
Moses Ma: Yes, the first pass at a spec won't REQUIRE verifiable 
  claims, but the white paper will heavily recommend them
Moses Ma: I'll work with Ed to ensure a presence at TPAC

Topic: W3C TPAC Planning

Manu Sporny:  Priorities: IIW, RWOT, ID2020 ideas migrate to more 
  specified experiements, then W3C/IETF takes it further.
Manu Sporny:  VC WG will need later work, and the job is to 
  message what that future work will be.
Manu Sporny:  Next generation stuff includes getting VC (now a 
  polyfill) into browser track.  need for bigger story.  plus an 
  item that i missed.
Dan Burnett: Yes, need to prepare for how VCWG might/should 
  extend once data model is done.
Manu Sporny:  W3C is doing stuff with web payments, and we're 
  working with SSI.  one story to weave is "what happens when these 
  all get put together"
Manu Sporny:  Could be an hour-long Unconference session
Manu Sporny:  Then we bring that to W3C membership, and give them 
  a heads up as to what we might want to start working groups on
Manu Sporny:  Question to this group is does that sound like a 
  good direction?
Dave Longley: +1 Sounds great to me
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Poll for high level thoughts
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  We can summarize this to the rest of the 
  group through the mailing list
Manu Sporny:  Other good thing would be to have the other chairs 
  VC WG, CCG, at the event to demonstrate momentum.
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Suggestions for next week's agenda?
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Suggestion for DID followup
  ...(post IIW))
Dave Longley: +1 For Credential Handler API if we can get David 
  Chadwick on the call
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Still trying to get David Chadwick's work in 
  front of the group, to unblock his work
David Chadwick: I cant get on the call today as I am travelling, 
  but I will sent a post a ppt to the list
David Chadwick: That gives a demo of the VC apps that we have 
  built
Moses Ma: Thanks everyone see y'all next week
David Chadwick: Thanks Moses, will do
Kim Hamilton Duffy:  Early wrapup.  thanks everyone!
