Readouts from Technical F2F

  • Recording available of readouts from Technical F2F, which took place prior to TSC Meeting


Getting to a Code Base

  • A team at the hackathon developed a PoC for a merged code base 
  • This team demonstrated their PoC work
  • The team noted that they pivoted slightly from the original plans once the pulled code together and merged 
  • The net result is that they found a more elegant solution in the process


Open Discussion

  • Comment about identity issues.  Talking about federation and very different requirements... are we supporting multi-sig, what are wallet requirements, regulatory issues (hardware, tokens, etc.), privacy issues (i.e. Europe vs. US),  This will affect all of our Federations. If we create a lot of different chaincodes with authority being granted by those chaincodes, how does that work? Suggested to TSC to determine where identity fits into the project.
  • The TSC discussed general topics of the relationship of HLP protocols, code and architecture. There was interest in eventually creating a way to pass cryptographic proofs with a protocol for exchanging.


Next Steps


Future F2F

  • Plan to have another F2F in roughly 1 month's time.
  • Preference for east coast -- though may want to move GEO around
