Bifold Updates
- Existing camera library is deprecated and archived on GitHub; we have a new one but it requires API 30.
- Rename "App" to "src" shortly. This is still a thing. Will wait for some existing PRs to clear out.
- Dependency Injection for Customization WIP. Primary tool will match AFJ: https://www.npmjs.com/package/tsyringe

- Remote logging package
Move from Hyperledger to OpenWallet Foundation
Summary of why Aries Bifold might consider moving from the Hyperledger Foundation to the OpenWallet Foundation (OWF):
- Simplifying Project Name: Opportunity to change to a simpler, more straightforward name to enhance clarity and appeal.
- Alignment with Aries Framework for Java (AFJ): Ensuring compatibility or alignment with AFJ standards and practices.
- Enhancing Project Value: The addition of a production-ready wallet to OWF will enrich its offerings.
- Expanding Community Engagement:
- Hosting a webinar published by OWF to boost visibility.
- Aiming to attract new members and gather more feedback from the community.
Impacts
- Impact on Project Infrastructure: Considering how the move will affect mechanical aspects like Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), NPM packaging, and repository naming.
- Support from Staff Member Ry: Ry is assisting both OWF and Hyperledger in onboarding projects, facilitating smoother transitions.
Process
- Community Consultation at Bifold Meeting:
Soliciting community feedback.
Submitting a proposal to OWF's "How to Become a Project" process, aiming for recognition as a growth project.
Possibly presenting to the technical oversight committee, including individuals like Tracy Khurt.
Deciding on a new repository name, with "Bifold" as a suggested option, subject to community input.
Notes
- Come in as "growth" prject
- TAC votes on the proposal.
- Bifold's mandate may need to change to be more vocal about being inclusive of other credential formats.
