Has to do with PRs that are old and haven't received attention 19:18:56 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-specs-dir/pull/14 19:19:35 Manu: VC Specifications dir. PR for media extension vocab, and has had much conversation. An attemp to figure out ADCD, JWT and Gordian etc. 19:20:14 Manu: the VC Spec Dir needs guidance. Should it be a note or registry thing or what for another 3 months and publish to PR space. Guidance requested 19:20:25 q+ for vc json schema 19:20:27 q+ 19:20:34 ack decentralgabe 19:20:34 decentralgabe, you wanted to discuss vc json schema 19:20:35 Brentz: so noted and will be brought up. 19:20:42 https://github.com/w3c/vc-json-schema 19:20:54 Gabe: work item for JSON Schema has been moved to the CCG 19:21:02 https://github.com/w3c-ccg/vc-di-bbs/pull/72 19:21:03 ack Orie 19:21:23 s/to the CCG/from the CCG to the VCWG 19:21:31 Ori: pull request prepared for VC BBS has been pulled in and needs to be merged as PR. 19:22:22 Ori: for VC JWT request for FTWD made and resolved in a previous meeting. Follow ups to possible objections made but it doesn't appear there will be objections. Go forward and prosper. 19:22:37 https://github.com/w3c/vc-jwt/pull/68 19:22:49 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-jwt/pull/68 19:22:55 s/FTWD/FPWD/ 19:23:34 Ori: Open pull request for vc-jwt. Some awkward sections cut from ver. 1. Have added around that some vision for enhancements and improvements for securing JSON-LD with JWTs but structure of doc difficult to revise 19:24:16 q+ 19:24:59 Manu: almost of the opinion to not do a PR for JWT until its in a shape for all to see it in. The specific concerns are the way the transformation algorithm is stated is non-testable. Why are we discussion something that is optional 19:25:22 Manu: what are we doing with transformation algorithms, are the testable, etc. 19:26:34 +1 to the idea that there's a lot that needs to change in the VC-JWT document to reach consensus and make something usable, but FPWD can happen first 19:26:54 Orie: there are many things that need work in the PR. Media type discussion in the vc specs dir, and the securing specs referring to them, etc. 19:26:55 I'm not super concerned either way, but would prefer we get it in better shape before FPWD, but we can also do that after FPWD. 19:27:26 q+ to read process 19:27:34 Orie: mappings and intrepretations of the mapping in the core model and in the spec dir are differing.... 19:27:46 ack selfissued 19:27:53 Orie: anything that needs done in this context? 19:28:16 Michael: supports the recommendation that Orie prepare it before it becomes a working draft 19:28:19 ack brentz 19:28:19 brentz, you wanted to read process 19:29:13 Brentz: process info -- publishing as a FWD has patent implications. Working drafts do not represent a consensus of the WG beyond an agreement to work on the topic. 19:29:52 Brentz: starts the clock on patent disclosures and says its a tech we as a working group want to pursue. 19:30:13 q+ to say I think we should either be FPWD land or in editor's draft land 19:30:39 ack JoeAndrieu 19:30:39 JoeAndrieu, you wanted to say I think we should either be FPWD land or in editor's draft land 19:30:50 Brentz: encourages folks to look through the PR that Orie has drafted, if something causes concern look for an issue that is already open on it, consider raising it later 19:31:31 I agree with JoeAndrieu, its not clear what you want me to do 19:31:35 Joe: Sounds like it's both a working draft and editor's draft 19:31:35 +1 to brent's suggestion 19:31:39 happy to do whatever. 19:31:49 +1 to "Orie go for it, we'll review, then FPWD" -- and time box the review to a week so people can't hold it up. 19:31:51 +1 to Orie getting it squared away first 19:31:57 Brentz: should we ask Orie to finish it and then review the FPWD? 19:32:31 Brentz: no objections to Orie shaping the document as an editor and presenting it to the group. 19:32:47 Orie: next time does Orie need to wait 7 days or what? 19:33:52 Brentz: with the work mode proposed Orie should be able raise PRs people think are needed. Concerns can be tracked in the issue. 19:34:20 Topic: Issue Discussion 19:34:29 https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-asc+no%3Aassignee+ 19:34:43 Brentz: we will follow the list of issues at the link ^^^ 19:35:03 Brentz: First issue #1044 19:35:07 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/1044 19:35:16 q+ 19:35:23 Brentz: do we have to introduce the credential class in the vc vocab? 19:35:26 q+ to close 19:35:31 ack dlongley 19:35:34 q- 19:35:44 Dave: suggests it be closed and don't need a resolution to do this. 19:35:46 +1 to close, that we've come to a resolution NOT to define Credential. 19:35:51 +1 dlongley 19:35:55 Brentz: marked as pending closed based on that recommendation 19:36:15 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/1046 19:36:21 Brentz: Issue #1046 19:36:25 q+ to talk about versions 19:36:29 ack decentralgabe 19:36:29 decentralgabe, you wanted to talk about versions 19:36:36 Brentz: add a unique version property to the data model 19:37:18 Gabe: useful to have a unique version model to track it. There isn't anything that points it to a particular specification. 19:37:34 q+ to suggest that since this is JSON-LD now, and we have a context value, that is our version identifier. 19:37:36 Brentz: would Gabe take on this issue? 19:37:41 ack manu 19:37:41 manu, you wanted to suggest that since this is JSON-LD now, and we have a context value, that is our version identifier. 19:37:41 Gabe: yes! 19:37:54 q+ to agree with manu and say other representations that map to the core model can do whatever they want 19:38:03 TallTed has joined #vcwg 19:38:17 ack dlongley 19:38:17 dlongley, you wanted to agree with manu and say other representations that map to the core model can do whatever they want 19:38:17 Manu: core data model is JSON-LD has an @context value is the version identifier. A separate unique version isn't needed. 19:38:49 Dave: +1 to Manu's observation/recommendation. Should close it. Core data model doesn't need it. 19:38:55 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/1060 19:38:59 Brentz: issue #1066 19:39:15 Brentz: Does calling something verifiable imply a proof is associated with it? 19:39:30 Brenz: anyone want to be assigned to this issue? 19:39:40 q+ 19:39:46 ack Orie 19:39:53 present+ 19:40:19 +1 to orie that we've hashed this out elsewhere and +1 to close 19:40:28 Orie: this seems to be a straggler left over from media type discussion. Calling something verifiable doesn't tell you anything about. vc+ld+json doesn't tell you if it does or does not contain a proof 19:40:31 RRSAgent, draft minutes 19:40:33 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2023/04/12-vcwg-minutes.html TallTed 19:40:40 +1 to orie and dlongley 19:40:49 s/issue #1066/issue #1060/ 19:40:51 Zakim, who's here? 19:40:51 Present: brentz, selfissued, oliver_, Phil-ASU, PhilF, dlehn, dlongley, Orie, manu, Kerri_Lemoie, decentralgabe, stenr, cel, dmitriz, TallTed 19:40:53 On IRC I see TallTed, decentralgabe, Kerri_Lemoie, Phil-ASU, oliver_, JoeAndrieu, selfissued, mprorock, Orie, PhilF, RRSAgent, Zakim, brentz, gkellogg_, dlehn, cel, dlongley, 19:40:53 ... csarven, rhiaro, stenr, manu, shigeya, w3c_modbot, ounfacdo, saysaywhat, npd, cel[h], bumblefudge1, cel[m], Github, bumblefudge, stonematt, Dongwoo, bigbluehat, hadleybeeman 19:41:03 Orie: can't infer anything from vc+ld+json about presence or absence of a proof 19:41:37 Brentz: are issues open to address updating terminology - no objections to mark as pending close 19:41:50 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/1047 19:41:55 Brentz: issue #1047 19:42:19 Doing a terminology review 19:42:29 and citing terminology issues, is a great way to start contributing! 19:42:46 Topic is " NIST defines "credential" differently #1047 " 19:42:59 Brentz: anyone who wishes to be assigned to this issue? 19:43:01 sure 19:43:05 (can't speak) 19:43:21 clehner 19:43:32 cheers 19:43:35 Brentz: Charles in the chat will be assigned to it (voice not available) 19:43:43 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/939 19:43:50 Brentz: issue #939 19:44:22 Brentz: Potential improvements to section "5.8 Zero-Knowledge Proofs 19:44:29 q+ to mark as pending close and ping sebastian. 19:44:37 q+ 19:44:42 ack manu 19:44:42 manu, you wanted to mark as pending close and ping sebastian. 19:44:47 +1 brentz 19:44:49 Brentz: recommendation that it be marked as pending closed because some have been made and has had no objections 19:45:09 Manu: Sebastian was asking about salted claims (?) 19:45:11 ack TallTed 19:46:02 TallTed: what was noted is that PR1030 will be merged soon so nothing for Sebastian to review yet.

Should this be clearly indicated? Verifiers should not trust it if presented to a verifier. 19:48:13 ack stenr 19:48:22 Isn't feature freeze in effect? 19:48:25 q+ 19:48:25 q+ to talk about trust 19:48:35 q+ 19:48:39 ack dlongley 19:48:41 Stan: Is there a possibility of marking it as a particular type such as test? 19:48:58 q- 19:49:16 Dave: would be worried about that suggestion. Best way is to have a different issuer if in a production environment. 19:49:19 ack decentralgabe 19:49:19 decentralgabe, you wanted to talk about trust 19:49:31 q+ 19:49:32 Brentz: that doesn't work if you want to test trusting the issuer. 19:49:57 ack oliver_ 19:50:04 Gabe: this is a larger trust issue. Should be up to a verifier. Communicating level of trust to a verifier might be an interesting topic. 19:50:45 Oliver: likes the credential type approach. Agrees with Dave that a production environment should have a different cert or something similar 19:51:04 Brentz: likes suggestions made. Suggests moving it to the implementation guide for implementers. 19:51:18 Brentz: issue #1063 19:51:18 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/1063 19:51:19 could be a mess with SD-style VCs ... where every one of them would have to say "you must disclose if this is a test credential or not" ... and so on -- lots of potential problems with independent claims / selective disclosure mechanisms 19:51:24 q+ 19:51:32 ack Orie 19:51:33 Can you use authn for holder bindings? 19:51:39 +1 to Orie, no you cannot, close issue. 19:52:04 Orie: no you cannot. That's the answer. There are browser APIs if you're in a browser environment. Should close issue. 19:52:24 Brentz: any objections to marking as pending closed. No objections - marked pending close. 19:52:26 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/1074 19:52:31 Brentz: issue #1074 19:53:04 Brentz: Verifiable Credentials Vocabulary v2.0 not contains "name" and "description". 19:53:08 name and description are not in https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/ 19:53:13 Manu: i'll take it. 19:53:26 subtopic: https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model/issues/984 19:53:30 Brentz: Manu assigned to it. 19:53:39 For the record, my new e-mail address is michael_b_jones@hotmail.com 19:54:02 Brentz: issue #984 no one has commented on it.
