Meeting ID: 886 5245 8257
Passcode: 534767 - Possible resources – UBC Students if there are things that can be done.
- iOS wrapper - can we include this in the release? Latest:
- Drop 32-bit (no issue there)
- Follow instructions - doing build from scratch – works fine, but link fails iosarch64 binaries not found (arm versions).
- Issue - libsodium, SSL, ZMQ installation via homebrew; Mac binaries installed, not universal or iOS. Must install them manually - build and package. Some prebuilt ones can be installed via homebrew. Instructions need to be added - questionable source.
- Need to decide if people should build it themselves or install via the pre-built or from a package manager (CocoaPods) Update the instructions one way or the other.
- Produce artifacts that can be put on CocoaPods package manager.

- Request from Hyperledger – reach out to HL Staff to help getting some contributors – has been successful in the past – can anyone step up from the project to drive that from the project side? Contact Marta Piekarska-Geater
