In addition, four of the Verifiable Claims Task Force members have been working very hard to whip the use cases document into shape by the face-to-face and highlight the payments use cases for the IG. Part of that process was to go back through the survey and extract use cases that were pertinent. All of that work was done after the VCTF was formed. > That is why I do not think the survey or other preliminary work done > by the CG should be featured Why would we not include pertinent data from 43 organizations (a healthy chunk of whom are W3C members) in our findings? > except to the extent that interviewees had specific observations > about them.

The VCTF is asserting that the path is writing a narrow charter proposal with a strong, focused set of use cases and socializing that information among the interviewees and W3C member companies before taking that charter to a vote. > My sense from reading the materials and your response, is that there > was not consensus from the interviewees on where to start work. That's not what I said and I specifically pointed out where interviewees stated where they said we should start work. > You wrote "No one said don't proceed with work in this area.” and "No > one said data model and syntax shouldn’t be worked on.” I would hope > for support for a particular direction from the interviewees, not > just lack of opposition. I pointed to specific places where many of the interviewees supported working on data formats and syntax. The point I was making with the "no one said" was that there was not opposition to starting this work, as we specifically asked about work should be done. If it's not clear that there is consensus around what a charter should cover then, we should update the report. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny, G+: +Manu Sporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: Web Payments: The Architect, the Sage, and the Moral Voice https://manu.sporny.org/2015/payments-collaboration/
