Agreed Upon:

  • See HackMD Document for most of what we have discussed

Online Discussion (from RocketChat this week)

  • Serialization formats

This Week's Discussion:

  • Note: Work from Gimly (Jack Tanner) on "DID verifiable conditions" – e.g. "N of M signatures to update a DID" – https://github.com/Gimly-Blockchain/verifiable-conditions
  • Other Indy Ledger Objects as DIDs (e.g. schema, etc):
    • Schema: "F72i3Y3Q4i466efjYJYCHM:2:npdb:4.3.4" (<nym_id>:<object type>:<name>:<tag>)
      • Do we want to allow the embedded reference to the "owner" of this item to be on another ledger? My guess – no.
      • How do we get a namespace into that? I think changing the <nym_id> to a <did> would resolve it.
        • That would make it look like a DID, even though the DID is just a component.
        • Do we auto-detect the "type of DID"?
        • Presumably if "?resource=true" returns the ledger object, but what if that query parameter is left off?  Do we just return the DIDDoc of the DID?
    • CLAIM_DEF: "5nDyJVP1NrcPAttP3xwMB9:3:CL:56495:npdb" (<nym_id>:<object type>:<signature_scheme>:<schema_txn>:<tag>) 
      • Note how the schema is referenced in the CLAIM_DEF identifier – as a transaction ID.
      • Changes:
        • Change <nym_id> to <did>
        • Change <schema_txn> to either
          • <schema_txn> (same ledger)
          • did:indy:<namespace>:<schema_txn> (different ledger)
    • Only allow cross-ledger references to DIDs and SCHEMA
      • All objects must be on the same ledger as the controller
      • CLAIM_DEFs may references SCHEMA on the same or another ledger
      • REV_REG_* objects must be on the same ledger as the related CLAIM_DEF
    • Add Sequence Number DID version:
      • did:indy:<namespace>:<seqno>
    • No Changes:
  • The "close-to-finished" DID Method Spec – please review
    • Perhaps not close to finished – doesn't talk about other objects yet – the conversation above 
    • At risk – DNR/DND

Future Discussions:

  • Include in document that DIDDocs are JSON-LD
    • Three serialization formats in the DID Core spec – let's go with 1 to reduce interop and implementation effort.
    • Daniel Hardmanwants to discuss this further, so that we consider JSON.
  • DNR and DND discussions
    • To find networks we will require at least the first and perhaps the second of these approaches, while the rest are suggested:
      • Config files for one or more known networks
      • A mechanism for a ledger operator to register discovery information for other ledgers (aka "human gossip")
        • A DID/DIDDoc on a ledger will contain cross-registry information
        • A mechanism is needed for finding the DID(s) that contain the registrations – ideas have been put forward - a DID Name Directory (DND) is the likely approach.
        • Document about the DND and DNR records
      • Decentralized registries based on verifiable credentials
      • Other registry mechanisms, such as the DDNR proposal
      • The DID Method Spec will include a reference to a repo (likely) "indy-did-networks" within Hyperledger that will be a lightly managed, structured repository of folders per Indy network with at least the config file(s) for the networks. Use of the repo is voluntary, but provides a convenient way for networks to publish information about the network. Maintainers will be selected from the community and should exhibit a light hand in accepting PRs, being concerned mainly with structure of the data (not content) and that contributors are not being malicious about updating the information of other network operators. The Hyperledger governance structure may be used for disputes as appropriate. This is not a replacement for the Governance that a specific network should implement.
