The Charter of the VC WG runs out at the end of the year. Discussions have begun in the WG whether the current (maintenance) charter should be simply renewed, or whether more substantial work would be proposed.

plehegar commented 2 years ago

https://github.com/w3c/vc-wg-charter is where the new charter is developed.

plehegar commented 2 years ago

Group chairs agreed yesterday that there is enough materials to work on a charter. We should send an advance notice soonish.

iherman commented 2 years ago

I would prefer to have a first, albeit rough, draft for the charter before going there...

The diff does not really make sense in this case: the current charter is for a maintenance Working Group, whereas the current one is for a full-blown Working Group.

Issues are at https://github.com/w3c/vc-wg-charter/issues

Horizontal Reviews: apply the Github label "Horizontal review requested" to request reviews for accessibility (a11y), internationalization (i18n), privacy, and security.

Anything else we should think about as we review?

... the current charter is for a maintenance Working Group, whereas the current one is for a full-blown Working Group.

Presumably you mean the proposed charter is for a full-blown WG.

iherman commented 2 years ago

Ack @samuelweiler. I had a first go at the issues with some 'triage' (calling out to those co-editors of the charter who should chime in), see my comments there.

Thanks.

samuelweiler commented 2 years ago

Thank you, @iherman, for digging into those so quickly.

iherman commented 2 years ago

Status: some comments came in at a later stage, which led to a flurry of discussion in the WG. There are, at this moment, 10 PRs to consider (although they are interrelated, ie, solving one of those may make a number of others moot).

Difficult to judge when the charter proposal will reflect a WG consensus so that it could go to W3M. Second half of March, maybe?

@lwolberg to review for APA

iherman commented 2 years ago

The charter has got a WG agreement; a request for W3M review has been sent out.

michael-n-cooper commented 2 years ago

APA would like a liaison statement, worded something like "Coordinate on accessibility use cases for verifiable credentials, and work jointly on a successor publication to inaccessible CAPTCHAs."

iherman commented 2 years ago

@michael-n-cooper, on the operative side: would you raise an issue in the VC Charter proposal's issue list or should I do it?

Personally (but I think that would be the reaction of many in the group) I would be interested in more details because, frankly, I did not realize VC-s could be helpful in APA work. What kind of application do you have in mind for a post-CAPTCHA world?

iherman commented 2 years ago

See https://github.com/w3c/vc-wg-charter/pull/110, @michael-n-cooper

michael-n-cooper commented 2 years ago

Thanks, APA ok with that PR.

iherman commented 2 years ago

@michael-n-cooper see the comments on https://github.com/w3c/vc-wg-charter/issues/108, please.
