...

• Scheduling future meetings
  • January 1: Cancelled
  • January 15: Need to select a topic
• Aries language wrappers
  • Connect-a-thon proposal: let's only build Frameworks instead of SDKs—let's be opinionated!  Simplify the experience of a new developer.
    • Merge the SDK and the Framework repositories so developers don't have to choose between them.
      • aries-sdk-go should merge into aries-framework-go
      • aries-sdk-javascript should move into aries-framework-javascript
      • other SDKs renamed as Frameworks?
    • Can have a separate SDK artifact in the Framework repository, if desired.
  • When can we deprecate the Indy SDK wrappers?
    • Overlap in development between Indy and Aries. New developers should start in Aries.
    • Hard to maintain CI / CD and do bug fixes for environments and wrappers we don't use.
    • IS-1423 for DotNet, because the Aries Framework is mature.
    • IS-1424 for Java, JavaScript, Android, iOS
    • Challenges with Python
• Misalignment between RFC 0094 and ACA-Py
  • ACA-Py pull request: https://github.com/hyperledger/aries-cloudagent-python/pull/240
  • Evernym products and Pico implemented one way, ACA-Py and DotNetFramework implemented the other. Resolution will be a breaking change.
  • A breaking change will be needed in the near future to implement Tobias' proposed changes to the envelope format.

Future Topics

• Next call
• Other:
  
  • Aries KMS design
    • Define approved algorithms
    • Define plugin interface
    • 3rd party libraries we could leverage:
      • Google Tink as an encryption library
  • Tobias' proposal for evolving DIDComm
  • Use cases for HTTP over DIDComm

...

• Next call
  • Hubs vs Agents
    • https://www.hyperledger.org/blog/2019/07/23/rhythm-and-melody-how-hubs-and-agents-rock-together
