Release Status and Work Updates

Indy Node
- Functionality to remove tokens led by Richard Esplin
  - Blocked by system test dependency on sovrin.deb
  - Will split Sovrin specific tests in indy-test-automation into separate repo in sovrin-foundation org
    - Will break the Sovrin Jenkins pipelines further. Best fix is to setup GitHub Actions pipeline for Sovrin deb.
- GitHub actions led by Kevin Griffin Wade Barnes
  - We need a GHA pipeline for Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 20.04 so that we can test in both.
  - The Ubuntu upgrade must interoperate with the then-current 16.04 release, so that we can organize the "one node at a time" Steward OS upgrades.
- Ubuntu 20.04 upgrade led by Robin Klemens andRyan Marsh
  - Making good progress, but blocked because there isn't a pipeline.
  - Draft of pipeline based on PR1505 : https://github.com/udosson/indy-plenum/tree/gha-ubuntu-20.04/.github/workflows
- New branching model led by Wade Barnes
  - Documenting plan (HIPE?)
  - Merging Stable to Master (Renata Toktar has a PR done)
  - Rename Master to Main
  - Releasing what is currently in Master
  - Evernym can help merge and test.
Indy SDK
- Recent release in progress, led by Ian Costanzo Wade Barnes
  - Release done?
- GitHub actions led by Patrik Stas
- Indy Node release needs a build of Indy SDK with freeze ledgers to do system tests. Currently blocked with publishing to pypi.
Indy Monitoring - https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-monitor
Indy/Aries Shared Libraries - donated to Hyperledger (indy-vdr, indy-shared-rs, aries-askar)
Ursa
Hyperledger Contribution Campaign (Richard Esplin Stephen Curran )

Meeting Topics

GitHub actions led by Kevin Griffin Wade Barnes - We need a GHA pipeline for Ubuntu 16.04
- CI for Indy Node - merged
- CD for Indy Node - active development - no official PR ready
- CI for Indy Plenum - merged
- CD for Indy Plenum - draft done - the publishing is not added, but will be – fairly easy.
- CI/CD for Indy-SDK looks good – ready to move forward (ABSA work).
- Completion of Sovrin release to produce final artifacts – Alex K working on this.
  - PR-based pipelines now enabled by Wade
  - Sovrin CI/CD needed using the same pattern.
- indy-test-automation – had been working, but it is dependent on the Sovrin packages that are not made yet.
- We need to add someone to help with the Sovrin CI/CD based on the patterns established with Node and Plenum.
- Need to research the publishing of the artifacts from GHA to the Sovrin repos – it's magic right now, needs to be brought into the open.
Next Indy-Node release – need CD completed. Once done, then we can plan the final steps to produce a release.
- Wade to work on a checklist for what is needed, and who is doing what for the initial release.
Ubuntu 20.04 Ryan Marsh (had a baby today – w00t!!) – Renata Toktar taking the work, Robin Klemens
- Working on tests related to Python 3.8 upgrade – most are running, 4-5 to go, parallel looking at specific packages to be updated
PR from Indy-Node and Indy-Plenum Stable to Master - PR is ready for review - Wade Barnes and others with experience.
- Renata finished that – timely to shift to the Ubuntu release.
- Can't test fully right now because of the Sovrin dependency.
- Biggest challenge – handling DCO-less commits.
Indy Contribution Campaign
Questions from the Indy DID Method Spec team:
- Adding to the NYM transactions (write and read) a "diddocContent" item, instead of putting it into an associated ATTRIB
  - Client left to assemble the DIDDoc, but need only read a single object
  - History Lesson: Why was the ATTRIB added vs. allowing optional data in the NYM?
  - Old Indy-SDK epic, old Indy epic, (must login to see epics)
Indy-SDK – done. 1.1.16 is in the wild! Merge still needs to be done, but it's ready. All other steps are done.
Can we merge HIPEs for helpers to remove plugins: PR 162 ?
Indy Node Maintainers.md, and CODEOWNERS in Indy Node and Indy Plenum
- Updated CODEOWNERS list: WadeBarnes Toktar brentzundel esplinr sergey.khoroshavin, udosson, m00sey, ianco, and askolesov
- Hyperledger standard Maintainers document?
- Use GitHub groups instead of CODEOWNERS? Ry set this up. We just need to approve his changes.
