They are talking about verifiable tokens. Something we are not realy doing. We need to write some domain specific vocab, for instance small fields, it might be a fruitful area. 15:35:18 The folks at Consensus working on uPort (on Ethereum) are using very small claims for introductions and authentication type cases, and the terseness or compactness of these claims is very important for embedding them into QR codes and introduction mechanisms 15:35:21 q + 15:35:25 q+ 15:36:21 a "JWT" is pronounced "JOT" 15:37:09 They are introduction IDs plus claims about what information is going to be shared over the connection 15:37:13 and a "JWT" is a "JSON Web Token" (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7519) 15:37:33 ... there is a tie between the utility of a domain and its granularity. So people who want JWT can do microclaims, using it for web login, with one or two fields.

One of them may have a spec proposal, that we may want to adopt. Counter to that is we are careful and say that we are not accepting the CG as working draft, but as an "under consideration" draft. 15:54:25 We want to move quickly, but we need to make sure that we are not viewed as trying to make decisions before others join 15:54:25 ack liam 15:55:05 liam: The danger of moving ahead before IPR is that someone who owns patents might not make the statements.

We're not saying do it despite the IPR... just do it as soon as you've made the judgement call. I'm fine with it being considered as a "under consideration draft", so we can start processing issues, etc. In case there is another proposal that comes along. 15:56:46 ChristopherA: I'd like to keep it away from being an item that comes up in the next couple of weeks.
