Will Abramson: Okay moving on to the main topic Isaac over to you for um.
Will Abramson: Your presentation on the.
Will Abramson: Certifiable issues and verifies list.
Will Abramson: Great thanks a lot Isaac so jump on the Queue if you have any questions or comments.
Will Abramson: Like I have a.
Will Abramson: Quick sort of matter on like where does this uh.
Will Abramson: Does this work take place currently like how like say I wanted to get involved how would I do that.
Will Abramson: Great I mean this is amazing I don't know is this like online like you know if someone is asking you oh really interested in that would you point them to someone and be like look here's the details about this task force or group it's just I was looking before the call and I couldn't see anything that might just be me.
Will Abramson: Great yeah maybe you could send an email out to the group that would be nice.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Thank you so much for the for presenting so I have a couple questions uh 1 is can you show so we've seen an example of what an individual issuers are verifiers service description object looks like.
Dmitri Zagidulin: What does um can you can you show an example of.
Dmitri Zagidulin: The outer list uh so or or or let's walk back actually because I want to understand whether this is list based or API based so I'm a verifier.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Hands over a diploma to me.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Signed by you know example.edu and I go to I go to verify I go to look up the issuer in uh a Viv uh issue of registry what what does that initial request look like.
Dmitri Zagidulin: What is uh the verifiers request to the issuer registry look like so when I when I want to fetch that uh original list of uh known verifiers.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Got it is there a way for the verifier to fetch the list of all of the known okay.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Okay understood and then the second question is a more General 1 sort of just positioning in the ecosystem uh how would you say how would you differentiate or explain the spec um with regards to.
Dmitri Zagidulin: The other 2 or 3 projects that are uh aiming to do uh verified issue and verify our lists such as open ID Federation and diffs um uh credential trust establishments back so where where would you position this spec uh opposite of those 2.
Will Abramson: Uh sorry David.
Will Abramson: Oh yeah David you're right.
Will Abramson: Oh it's on a David if you're talking.
<davidc> looks like you cannot hear me
Dmitri Zagidulin: Yeah we we can't quite hear you.
Will Abramson: It's like you're muted on the jitsi client if that's.
Will Abramson: Maybe I'll get to Harrison first when we come back to you David Harrison.
Harrison_Tang: Yeah I my question is that different trust Frameworks have slightly different governance right so the users of this basically are relying are trusting that trust framework so I'm just I'm I I'm just curious like does this back includes like the identify identification around the trust framework like in this case if your time of Gaia X like does it have a URL to go X and then as well as how their governance work and things like that.
Harrison_Tang: Because I I see that the there are attributes around service identifiers like why don't we have include something like trust framework identifiers or things like that what what are the pros and cons of including or not including such an identifier to the trust Frameworks.
Harrison_Tang: Cool thank you thanks.
Will Abramson: Cool thanks David.
Will Abramson: Want to try again.
Will Abramson: Maybe now um.
Will Abramson: Oh I see off mute David if you.
<davidc> ~I am off mute
Will Abramson: No we still don't have you yeah you are off you on jitsi I don't know maybe it's something to do with your browser client I think it tends to work best with chrome so I don't know.
<harrison_tang> we cannot hear you. perhaps you can type in your question
<davidc> its safari
Dmitri Zagidulin: Yeah try try a different browser or maybe type type in the text.
Will Abramson: Yes we type in your question I'm happy to read it out.
Will Abramson: Uh Lucy in the meantime still.
<davidc> It was a comment rather than a question
Lucy Yang: Yeah question to ask I think I want to go back to on the Metro's question earlier about you know open ID Federation the other the other complimentary.
<davidc> To describe the main difference between OID Federation and ETSI
Lucy Yang: Um like approach and to have um do we have some examples we can show like how you know um the you know the training approach that can actually approach what you know but whatever is being defined like to verify and and issue our list and the your your work is David on how can we Show an example of how that could be complimentary and to you know open ID Federation or others um potentially leveraging Reggie trust I'm saying this because you know we're we're working together.
Lucy Yang: It it probably be helpful I I you know having worked on on Reit trust project for a few years I understand you know there's like richer metadata but I haven't seen I haven't seen kind of example from you know from open ID Federation I said know many you know many are considering adopting you know using open ID Federation which is you know kind of Natural Evolution from what they're using today so if there's a kind of more concrete example um that we can show be super helpful you know for me as well so that's.
Our Robot Overlords are scribing.
Will Abramson: I'm not seeing anyone on the Queue I have some more questions my questions are more about the ccg and like you know like you're 1 of a few people or groups who are doing a CCD work item that kind of in that process I don't think we as a CCU community.
Will Abramson: Have that process fully refined like I just wonder if you have any comments about how we as a community could help work items like yourselves you know get through the process to like.
Will Abramson: Um I think the criteria is uh.
Will Abramson: I might be wrong at this so people can correct me but I think the criteria is you guys tell us that you think it's finished and then we put a call out to this community group and there's open for like you know comments and objections and if and if that passes then it's finished and it can be published as like a a final report with a w3c link but it's still a ccg like a community group report I think for it to get adopted in a working group that would be up to the working group that would form right and then they decide which which work items they might want to bring in to like work on more formally to get them through like a proper w3c standard.
Will Abramson: So that's separate things basically.
Will Abramson: To help this group could help you get to a final report right and I think that would be the first step to which ones is the final report then it can be like oh this thing's pretty you know pretty good shape working groups would start considering.
Will Abramson: Um you know advancing it further I suppose.
Will Abramson: Yes I mean I think so that's fine to me.
Will Abramson: Yes um so that's kind of like the the more formal process of the ccg right can help you get a report published but I was more wondering about like.
Will Abramson: We as a group of people like.
Will Abramson: I feel like.
Will Abramson: We don't have good.
Will Abramson: Visibility always of all the work that's going on for all the people and like we don't have good ways of creating entry points for people on this call who might want to join you know and help you write it seems like it's at the moment it's just you Isaac and David Wright has been like churning away at this.
Will Abramson: Well if you email me after and let me know when you've sent it and I can see if I receive it maybe Demetri also has some ideas on maybe.
Dmitri Zagidulin: I had uh I have a different not really processed question but what's the best way to.
Dmitri Zagidulin: The updates to the spec if I go to the.
Dmitri Zagidulin: The the GitHub spec on the URL uh that that's this thing in um in chat uh I I don't see the example of the issue of metadata that you were showing on the slides where could I go to to see those updates.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Got it okay understood.
Will Abramson: Working in a Google doc or something cuz it's just easier for you to yeah fair enough.
Will Abramson: Okay do I have any more.
Will Abramson: Of comments for Isaac.
Will Abramson: Um or about anything right we have the end of the year so like our Christmas final thing any Reflections or.
Will Abramson: I mean I'll open up the fault to anything uh if there's nothing then I guess we can close early and.
<harrison_tang> Just want to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!!!
Will Abramson: Yeah Harrison why don't you say that to everybody in the.
Dmitri Zagidulin: Understood actually I I have 1 quick question for uh for the verified issue and verifier folks uh which is uh have what are your current thoughts on maintaining either did rotation history or key rotation history in the registry.
Will Abramson: Okay so I'm not seeing anyone else on the Queue final moments uh in the meantime I'll Echo what Harrison said in the chat you know have a great holidays Merry Christmas Happy New Year um.
