4. Project review
   1. Vipin presented taxonomy of types of securities drawn using gliffy. Challenges of the tool (including inserting links and popups)
   2. As first cut it seems very good (Bobbi Muscara )
   3. Second aspect of taxonomy is lifecycle, an example through the use of a diagram from a Oliver Wyman & Euroclear document was presented, seen in the Taxonomy website, Natalia Garciagonzalezreminded us that the origination part was missing. Another aspect was the fact of multiple ledgers, we got into a debate about virtual ledgers versus multiple networks for different products and hence interoperability. Instead of following standards there, companies may be developing their own standards (like clearmatics for stablecoin approaches)- Manivannan Pillai.
   4. stanislav.liberman  said that use cases could also have a taxonomy and he will start on something soon.
