Other Business
- Scheduling future meetings

- 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.
- Merge the SDK and the Framework repositories so developers don't have to choose between them.
- 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
- Connect-a-thon proposal: let's only build Frameworks instead of SDKs—let's be opinionated! Simplify the experience of a new developer.

- 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.
