# Questions to Gitcoin team

1. Let's say we implement a `Radicle` stamp, and we want to use this to define who controls a specific repo. Then, the stamp would give the user *access* to the radicle network, whereas if we want to manage permissions more finely, we would issue a VC from the Passport of that user, is that right?
2. In that case, can we work offline? Normally we can use `git` offline as usual, but we would have to retrieve the key to sign refs from `Gitcoin`. Would that work when offline? Even if it's not implemented today, is it possible?
3. More on VCs: VCs require an *Issuer*. However radicle does not have any centralized component that can issue those. There is no "provider" that can verify the identity of anyone in the radicle ecosystem. The alternative is that each repo owner issues the VCs to delegates. Is that feasible?
