What is the "positioning" of the did-methods Working Group? #8

Closed mwherman2000 closed 17 hours ago

For example (these are intended to be independent questions/axis):

  1. Is/was the WG positioned to be "outside" the traditional SDOs? ...e.g. W3C, DIF, IETF, ToIP, ... My assumption: yes
  2. Who is the "host" organization? ...e.g. who is hosting the repository, zoom calls, etc. My assumption: DIF
  3. Which governance structures is the WG expected to use? ...e.g. processes, Code of Conduct, etc. My assumption: the WG is free to decide - some by WG/parent circle consensus, others by DID Method cluster circle members
  4. Ultimately, the specifications need to be ratified by one or more SDOs. Which one(s)? My assumption: it will vary DID Method (cluster) by DID Method (cluster) based on the needs/descretion of the method controllers and circle members for each particular cluster of DID Methods

(Answering operational questions as ED of DIF)

  1. No, it's a DIF WG
  2. DIF
  3. DIF
  4. DIF ratifies, and then may donate per WG decision
