+1 to remove non-fiat -----Original Message----- From: Stephane Boyera [mailto:boyera@w3.org] Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2014 2:28 AM To: Manu Sporny; Joseph Potvin; Melvin Carvalho Cc: public-webpaymentsigcharter; Web Payments CG Subject: Re: Suggestion: Remove "non-fiat money" from the draft Web Payments IC Charter Hi Manu, Joseph, All Given that there seems to be a consensus on removing non-fiat. I'm happy to proceed. The easiest, at a first glance, is to just remove the term and not open another can of worms by adding a new term. I believe that the idea is very well conveyed and I feel we don't need to go further. I implemented this change (removing the problematic term). cheers Steph Le 09/09/2014 03:28, Manu Sporny a écrit : > On 09/01/2014 12:30 PM, Joseph Potvin wrote: >> RE: Doesn’t fiat imply government? >> >> If what's intended in that section of the Charter is to say >> "stateless currencies", then some variant of this phrase would be >> better.
