Scope
The scope is limited to the various lifecycle events and use of Identity needed to securely participate in the Hyperledger Project DLT implementations. We host a series of presentations on the Identity aspects of blockchain implementations in Hyperledger projects.
In scope is the dissemination of information on various pure Identity projects like Indy and Aries. Also in scope are efforts to launch such projects in Hyperledger or create identity labs in Hyperledger labs.
The Hyperledger Implementer's calls track implementations in the various implementation tracks: Indy, Aries and others.
We are also keyed into the wider Identity ecosystem, globally. Standards work around Identity is also reported on; specifically we track the Verifiable Credential Group, DIF, TOIP and W3C DID specification.
In addition, we are working on a whitepaper on Identity,
How to Get Involved
The working group calls have presentations from the coalface of Identity related work happening globally and healthy discussions around it. All intere sted people are welcome and we ask that you introduce yourself including why you are on the call and how you can help.
We are working on an Identity WG Paper draft. Any contributions to this are also welcome.
