FYI, much of the stuff in Kaliya's presentation re: DIDs and VCs is from our report: https://ssiscoop.com/ I did a similar, although, more high level overview of DIDs and VCs for the Banking industry at Money2020 - I hesitated to share it here. I feel uncomfortable asking Kaliya for her slides. Those are her IP, and it's based on our report and also her decades of work in this community and her own IP. This is exactly the kind of thing the community needs to explain what we do to outsiders - to push forth the industry for us all. This is exactly why, Kaliya and I wrote the report in the first place, and are raising a bounty to open our report (and future ones/more of this kind of outward industry facing communication). How can we work together to financially compensate, acknowledge and support the development and broad sharing of this kind of work? -Heather ps. In previous times in my career, I have been liberal sharing my information for free, paying it forward, building the community, in the idea that the value I gave, would come back to me. That model didn't work. Community efforts are at risk of being co-opted, built upon, leveraged for other people's business models - by people with more power and resources. pps. A note, I recently attended the German Blockchain paper session at IIW. While all of those authors, volunteered their time, they all had day-jobs that gave them the time to volunteer, so they weren't taking any financial risk. This is not the same situation as others of us in the community (and there are many, Joe, Andrew, Kaliya, myself, and also Chris come to mind). We need to come up with a way to *financially* support those of us doing important work in the community, for the benefit of the community. And to protect against someone/thing with more power/resources co-opting what we're working for.
