Resources:


TSC Chair | Election Results

  • Congrats to Chris Ferris on re-election!


Hackfest Planning

  • Chicago Hackfest (9/21 & 9/22), please register now (and contribute to draft agenda).
  • EU Hackfest: planning on Lisbon, Portugal (12/5 & 12/6) -- any objections?
    • No objections.
    • ACTION:  Hyperledger team to secure venue and launch registration.


PSWG Charter (Mark Wagner)

  • Revised draft
  • VOTE:  Approved - unanimous.


[HIP] Hyperledger Caliper - a benchmark framework for performance testing (Haojun Zhou)

  • Proposal
  • Concerns were raised noting that the PSWG should first have adequate time to create requirements and specs so that there is a consistency for potential benchmarking framework projects to adhere to.
  • Concerns were raised around publishing results and the associated sensitivity.
  • Comment that benchmarking projects need to be able to work with all projects under the Hyperledger umbrella.
  • ACTION:  Caliper team to continue working with the PSWG until the PSWG has formalized requirements back to the TSC.  At that point, Caliper (or other projects) may propose for incubation.


[HIP] Hyperledger Interledger-Java

  • Proposal | thread
  • No discussion this week -- will be on agenda for next week.


Security team update (Dave)

  • A few issues have gone through confidential system related to security auditing -- nothing serious.
  • One infra issue that the Security team is working through.
  • Updates have been made to Security wiki pages, tightening up security handling processes and recommendations for secure coding.
  • Nettitude will be at the Chicago Hackfest to report out on their work.


Project reporting discussion

  • ACTION:  Tracy to start this topic via email again.
