• 08:17:43 From Timo Glastra : https://github.com/hyperledger/aries-cloudagent-python/pull/1725#issuecomment-1097159274

• 08:38:15 From Kim Ebert : why wouldn't we send the OCA Bundle (or a pointer to it) with the credential at issuance or sharing

• 08:39:11 From Daniel Bluhm : Would there be any indication on a ledger of the existence of the bundle on the resource server associated with a schema?

• 08:42:43 From Daniel Bluhm : I'm assuming we'd need to do things like hashlinks to help ensure data resovled is data we intended to resolve

• 08:46:13 From John Nathaniel Jr. : Must have a signature and a DID agreed.

Presentation and discussion on enabling OCA for Aries in general and in ACA-Py specifically

• MRGs and OCA – how to link them

Update on last week's discussion and ledger agnostic AnonCreds in Aries/ACA-Py:

• How to enable object (DID and AnonCreds) resolution to improve ledger agnostic Aries protocols, and in particular, ledger-agnostic AnonCreds

  • Topics:

    • DID Resolution:

      • State of DID Resolution in ACA-Py – local and external resolvers, regex to define if and how to resolve a DID.

        • External resolvers – http and didcomm interfaces available

      • Work happening now on did:peer to make it fit the interface

      • Working happening at SICPA on a DID Registrar based on the DIF Spec - Issue to be added to discuss/track

        • EBSI plugin being created (Ethereum based, DIDs only)

        • Plugins needed for did:sov, did:indy, did:peer, did:key  and folks may be interested in adding more

      • Inconsistency in returned DIDDoc – suggests the need for a method in ACA-Py to "smooth out" the handling of DIDDocs - Issue to be added to request

    • AnonCreds Objects Handling

      • Currently tied to Indy – a "baseLedger" class with instances for Indy-SDK (indy-wallet storage only) and Indy VDR (indy-wallet or askar storage).

        • Handles writing as well, with Endorser handling.

      • Likely need to abstract to a similar, pluggable resolution and writing mechanisms - Issue(s) to be created.

        • Given an identifier in an AnonCreds object/context – resolve it.

        • Write AnonCreds objects using plugins to various target VDRs.

      • AFJ starting to talking about an AnonCredsResourceService
