    1. JIRA opened for Performance approach and strategy:
      Error rendering macro 'jira' : null
    2. Today talk about: Performance docs
      1. Concepts, Tasks and Reference as framework. Useful concept material can be in Fabric Docs.  Reference should refer  to Fabric Performance Site.  Thoughts required on Task material – i.e. how to use.
      2. Wait for 2.0 and RAFT to document work as best advise.
      3. Q1 timeframe for new Performance topic.

    1. Refer to : https://gerrit.hyperledger.org/r/#/c/fabric/+/34174/

    3. The approach is to refine, restructure, re-order rather than rewrite.
    4. MSP and Department terminology are helpful.
    5. Chris G positive feedback on MSP topic. Pam: lots of work to be done
    6. OU is important concept, especially given that CAs are used to create identities.  OU is important and related closely to department.
    7. Diagrams from Pam.
      1. Walked through MSP creation and usage process.
      2. Jim: this is task oriented material, and helpful.  Also helpful to have real world example for conceptual example, e.g. credit card example.
      3. Chris F example. Bank consortium example - who holds certificates vs who holds peers.  3 types of users.  Orgs, (peer and orderer) and client application users.
      4. Discussion on MSP tiering models - Jim. Logical vs physical architecture.
