Hyperledger Quarterly SIG Report due 04/15 (Rich)
2019-Q1 Quarterly Report completed, and available here
Special thanks to our HC-SIG Subgroup leads for helping to generate this report: Steven, Raveesh, and Benjamin
- HC-SIG Use Cases (Rich)
- From last meeting, it was determined that we should develop and publish healthcare use cases. Rich will help to facilitate this. Wendy suggested that her access to academic white papers will likely have use cases that we might use to get started
- Discussion: your thoughts on developing uses cases for HC-SIG? Volunteers to lead this effort?
- Blockchain Governance (Rich)
- Rich followed up with Hyperledger leadership, and it was noted that there is currently no blockchain governance group or activity in place that serves in a cross-cutting capacity (i.e., beyond the healthcare industry)
- Discussion: should we continue to pursue this issue beyond the scope of the HC-SIG? Perhaps engage other SIGS in discussion on their interests?
