15:24:14 <kezike> manu: The Recognized Entities (formerly called Verifiable Issuers and Verifiers). The purpose is to enable recognition of entities and the actions that they can perform. Had a long debate over spec naming and landed on Recognized Entities. We ran a poll in the task force yesterday to gather interest in participating in the spec. Today, we need to
15:24:14 <kezike> raise a resolution to decide to publish the First Public Working Draft (FPWD) for the spec. We are aiming for a publication date of 2027-05-12.

15:26:36 <manu> PROPOSAL: Publish the Recognized Entities specification (https://w3c.github.io/vc-recognized-entities/) as a FPWD with a short name of vc-recognized-entities with a target publication date of May 12th.
15:26:37 <kezike> ivan: This spec needs to have W3C members as editors. We will published with one editor, but eventually we need to add W3C members to the editor list.

15:35:44 <kezike> brent: We don't need everyone to be present in the task force calls if that helps. We could also coordinate asynchronously if that is preferable, but not entirely confident in this approach.
15:35:54 <phila> Topic: Face to Face, Brussels
15:36:18 <phila> Basic info https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-vc-wg/2026Mar/0005.html

15:38:53 <Zakim> manu, you wanted to comment on threat modelling and high-level intro on work items we're working on.
15:39:21 <kezike> ...Please note that threat modeling will also be discussed at the F2F meeting.
15:40:37 <kezike> manu: The VCALM group has already started working on threat models at a high-level. We plan to have a deeper dive on data modeling at the F2F meeting. We plan to circulate a document prior to the F2F meeting.

15:44:03 <ivan> q+
15:44:06 <phila> ack ivan
15:45:05 <kezike> phila: Notes Manu's desire to include more folks from various verticals, as F2Fs are valuable in ways that virtual calls are not. Room capacity is 28, but we will do our best to encourage and accommodate as many people as possible.
15:45:46 <phila> -> Social activity idea https://www.belgianbeerworld.be/en
15:47:18 <kezike> phila: Belgium is known primarily for chocolate and beer. On Wednesday, late afternoon, I propose that we go to Belgian Beer World (https://www.belgianbeerworld.be/en) as a social activity. Please express dissent now or offline if you would prefer to do something else.
15:48:00 <kezike> ...GS1 may be able to subsidize that, but will confirm soon.

15:49:51 <phila> ack ivan
15:50:05 <kezike> brent: If this is anything like it was last year, it is organized by SDO. So, we should coordinate with W3C to ensure that we have slots in the agenda. Otherwise, we will not be able to participate in it as an organization.
15:50:44 <phila> ack manu
