### 2021-01-13: Meeting Notes

#### MyMeta profiles Hammad shares his thoughts on where they are
- MetaSkills spec, certifications for different skills e.g. cadCAD
- Demo of MyMeta, profiles for users, but also guilds, using discord to see membership

#### Identitylink-services
- Verifications of social accounts
- Backend implementation finished by Raid Guild
- Search based on social accounts? Will be possible once indexing of ceramic is possible

#### IDX
- Updated docs
- Some naming changes

#### General discussion
- How IDX can allow services to write user data without the user being authenticated?
- IDX reference points to document owned by the service
- How do we allow users to link verifications to their profile while also maintaining privacy
- Different profiles for different context

### 2020-11-25: Meeting Notes

#### IDX + Ceramic Update
- Ceramic
- Getting closer to more stable version of protocol, approaching feature freeze
- IDX
- Working on speed improvements
- Stabilizing `js-idx` library
- Hackathon with IDX + SkyDB: Using IDX for user identity and SkyDB for storing user and application data
- Done by encrypting SkyDB seed inside a user's reference document stored in IDX. When user gives an app permission to their SkyDB definition, the app decrypts the key and can interact with their SkyDB
- See tutorial here: https://blog.ceramic.network/how-to-build-idx-apps-with-skydb-storage-backend/
- Upcoming tutorial for IDX + Textile ThreadsDB
- Similar model as SkyDB integration

#### Social Account Verification Service
- Verifications are stored in an "Also Known As" document. A reference to this document is contained in the user's IDX Index. You can read the AKA spec here: https://github.com/ceramicnetwork/CIP/blob/3c791031f7db954859119ac924c9a608957cda9c/CIPs/CIP-23/CIP-23.md
- Spec'd for Twitter, Github, and Discord
- RaidGuild doing the work
- For publicly available social feeds (i.e. Twitter, Github Gist), this verification is trustless since the social message and corresponding entry in the DID can always be verified (as a two-way binding), but the verifiable claim is issued for consumption convenience
- For private social feeds (i.e. Discord DMs), the verification requires the trusted claim from the verification service since the message posted containing the DID cannot be seen publicly by others

#### UBDI Profile Demo
- Check out the product: https://app.ubdi.com
- Allows users to link all their accounts and pull in their data to a data bank, then can use that to opt in to targeting for certain types
- Trying to grow userbase

#### BrightID
- People on the call made some BrightID connections by downloading the mobile app and scanning Adam's QR code from his app
- Apps where you can use BrightID: https://apps.brightid.org
- Also has a Discord bot that you can add to your server

#### IPR
- Options
- Nest identity/IDX specs and standards under groups that already take care of this stuff, i.e. DIF, W3C, etc.
- Create our own IPR agreement that people sign before contributing
- Create our own IRP agreement down the road and need to go back and have all the contributers retroactively sign
- Michael will email Kaliya to coordinate around options
