Asset Exchange Specifications

[VRamakrishna]

Write specifications for asset exchange protocols:

• Review existing code and documentation (instructions) and slides to extract these specifications.

Protocols:

• https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/weaver-dlt-interoperability/blob/main/rfcs/protocols/asset-exchange/generic-htlc.md (Update this to reflect the current implementation without going into DLT-specific details. Add placeholder sections for automation and failover/rollbacks.)
• https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/weaver-dlt-interoperability/blob/main/rfcs/protocols/asset-exchange/fabric-htlc.md (Talk about the Fabric-specific procedures as implemented in the interoperation chaincode and the way in which the application and interop chaincodes interact to effect locks and claims. Specify the two alternative ways of using Weaver: as a library or using the interop chaincode.)
• https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/weaver-dlt-interoperability/blob/main/rfcs/protocols/asset-exchange/corda-htlc.md (Shunt the earlier research and design suggestions to an appendix. Talk about the Corda-specific procedures as implemented in the Interoperation CorDapp and the ways in which the application and interop chaincodes interact to effect locks and claims. Discuss the alternative ways to implement these locks and justify the choice on the basis of security considerations and Corda feature support.) Message structures and data formats, for generic components and for DLT-specific components:
• https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/weaver-dlt-interoperability/blob/main/rfcs/formats/assets/exchange.md (Review)

Split or merge files into multiple RFCs if you think that will be more comprehensible to the reader. Rename the titles if necessary.

https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/weaver-dlt-interoperability/blob/main/rfcs/formats/assets/exchange.md needs to be updated further because of recent changes necessitated for Solidity (Besu) support.
