W3C Process for Registries

I lurk on the W3C Process CG, but do not actively read all the email, nor
have I attended more than about one call and part of one F2F.

I am co-chair of the W3C Credentials CG https://w3c-ccg.github.io (with Kim
& Joe, cc'ed above), which successfully spun out the Verifiable Claims WG a
few years ago (hopefully soon to be a CR!) and is now spinning out a new
Decentralized Identifiers WG (again, hopefully soon).

We are one of the most active W3C community groups, with regular 20-30+
person calls weekly for several years. We have a large number of community
work items that we are in progress on. Some will be CG reports, some are
incubation for future potential WGs, others are intended as advisory, and
at least one is ultimately intended for the IETF.

As W3C Community Groups don't terminate (are we "Evergreen"?) both the VCWG
and the nascent DIDWG have asked us to be the home for ongoing registries
that both specifications need. We have created lightweight processes for
these that seem to be working reasonably well so far.

We also are supporting a number Digital Verification CG items
https://github.com/w3c-dvcg tasks (sort of a subgroup of our own), where
cipher and proof suites are shared, which also tend to be evergreen, though
our own processes for these are current lagging (a shortage of
cryptographers and security engineering time and people.)

My understanding is that others at W3C have been discussing other processes
for handling registries and lists, and also items like cryptosuites that
need to be evergreen. As I don't read all the W3C Process email, I'd like
to be specifically informed a week or more in advance if there any W3C
Process meetings with that topic on the agenda.

In such a meeting I can at minimum inform people of what registries/lists
the CCG is hosting now, our current processes, and share my thoughts on
how/if registries/lists could be handled differently.

Thanks!

P.S. I'm on PDT which makes 7am calls rather grueling as I have Asia
clients who always want 7pm calls. I don't know if you have any flexibility
on call times.
