Agenda

• Status

  • Review of PRs, recently closed PRs and Issues

• Plugins Dependabot Process - another update with the help of Claude:

  • Process from last two meeting, plus:

    • Updated the “7” option (update all libraries for a given library) to:

      • Automatically scan the open dependabot issues to find the libraries to update

      • Run the update for all of those.

    • Added an option “9” that deals with dependabot updates that update pyproject.toml files

      • Scans all dependabot PRs to find ones that update the pyproject.toml

      • Checks all pyproject.toml files that have an exact match of the library version being updated from.

      • Flags all pyproject.toml files that have a different version of the file – left of a manual update

      • Runs the update lock file update process on this instances.

    • Propose we drop the “8” option – close PRs, as better to let dependabot close them, so we can see if any are missed in a weekly update.

• Plugins vs. Core – any thoughts:

  • Kanon

  • OAuth access to Admin API

    • Preference is plugin – faster to develop, easier. Likewise maintainability.

    • But, cannot be “just a plugin” – needs hooks on every API call.

      • What is the hook that can be added? Clever ideas welcome!!

    • OAuth should have been there from day 1…

  • HSM support

    • Same as above – need a hook into the wallet.

    • Approach should be

• AnonCreds Data Integrity support in AnonCreds W3C VC Support

  • type vs. cryptosuite

  • Recall the process:

    • Issuer – generates “native” AnonCreds proof, and moves data around to format as DI proof.

    • Verifier – received DI proof, moves data around to format as AnonCreds proof, verifies “native” AnonCreds proof

• Open Discussion

• Housekeeping
