RFC Progress

Other Business

  • 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.
