Agenda

  • Presentation/demo from Patrick St. Louis on did:webvh in ACA-Py – including the Server and Endorsement.

  • New name and logo?

    • At the last ACA-Pug, Patrick gave a great summary of why Adaptive Cloud Agent - Python would be a good new name for ACA-Py, and proposed this logo:

    • John Jordan has proposed this logo:

      • The following ACA-Py logo embodies the principles of decentralized trust and interoperability. Three independent arcs form an implied triangle — a visual metaphor for the trust triangle between issuer, holder, and verifier. Each element stands apart, emphasizing autonomy, yet their alignment conveys mutual confidence and shared integrity. The design’s open geometry reflects ACA-Py’s protocol-agnostic architecture and future-oriented scalability, while the bold orange accent represents proof and verification in motion. The result is a mark that is technically precise, minimalist, and human-centered — mirroring ACA-Py’s role as a foundational, flexible component in the verifiable data ecosystem.
