16:08:40 <manu> marta: Who is going to be at Construct

16:09:47 <manu> Construct is CoinDesk's first blockchain developer conference, curated by and for technologists.
16:10:32 <manu> marta: There will be a bunch of speakers from industry/academia. They still have some tickets left, you can still get in.
16:10:47 <manu> marta: Two day event, several people from Blockstream will be there.
16:10:55 <manu> 3601 Lyon St, San Francisco, CA 94123
16:11:09 <manu> marta: Wondering if anyone from here will be planning to go there?
16:12:22 <manu> mountie: This is a lunar holiday in Korea, China, so probably not a lot of eastern attendance.
16:12:55 <manu> marta: I will be talking about this group and how folks can participate. Seeing how that goes.
16:13:38 <manu> mountie: We had scheduled ... building under Blockchain CG - just the Korean members, we got some sponsors and have a plan to open an international conference in July.
16:13:59 <manu> mountie: This will be around more general issues
16:14:05 <manu> mountie: Two day conference.
16:14:26 <manu> mountie: Hope to introduce new members via that venue.
16:14:50 <manu> Topic: Getting New Members

16:17:20 <manu> marta: I met with Dmitri with BigChainDB, so continue to bump into each other at different conferences.
16:19:01 <manu> manu: There are some Verifiable Claims stuff we're working on with Evernym that we'd like to bring into this group, will try to do that more as time goes on.

16:20:20 <manu> Topic: Use Cases
16:20:28 <manu> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BNKQ-hNFIpROyzQRig7a7kTBcmclAQlbv3MCCZfhHiE/edit
16:26:58 <manu> Manu provides update on use cases document... basic structure is there. We need to start filling out sections.
16:27:24 <manu> manu: We have a list of use cases, but many of them were proposed by people that are not showing up to the call.
16:27:43 <manu> marta: yes, we need to put in use cases that have active participation. Working on Google Doc is a good way to go about this.
16:28:12 <manu> mountie: From China, accessing Google Docs or Facebook is restricted. We have to choose another way.
16:28:59 <manu> mountie: We show changes through mailing list...
16:29:14 <manu> marta: I can take an action to send snapshots out once every week of the current state of the document.
16:29:37 <manu> mountie: I will try to pull the initial document to Blockchain CG homepage to collect information.
16:32:56 <manu> manu: We may want to focus on getting more use cases in there and not as much on the rest of the document right now.
16:33:14 <manu> manu: For example, not clear to me what the roles are yet.
16:33:24 <manu> mountie: Are roles technologies or people?
16:33:45 <manu> Manu: We've tried to focus on people and the things they want to accomplish, so people... not things like user agents or blockchain nodes.
16:34:24 <manu> ACTION: Manu to detail several use cases in the document.
16:35:29 <mountie> manu is disconnected.
16:36:57 <manu> marta: ... the way we think about blockchain applications has to be different from what we think about today.
16:38:31 <manu> mountie: I'll send out document links
16:39:16 <manu> Topic: Meeting in April
16:40:03 <manu> marta: We have a possibility of meeting in April around Rebooting Web of Trust and IEEE - suggest we try meeting in Paris.
16:40:10 <manu> manu: +1, I'll be there.
16:40:33 <manu> marta: It might be easier for people to meet up there.
16:41:27 <manu> mountie: Not just our meeting, RWoT and IEEE
16:41:59 <manu> marta: I will send out that link after the call. Suggest that we meet in April via the mailing list.
16:42:24 <manu> mountie: I'll try to go to Paris... will try to make time.
