Thanks All
Interesting thoughts and discussion.
Indeed we could invite some other folks not engaged here to add their use cases.
But it would need to be pretty soon.
We are more than half way through the 6 month period for collecting use cases, allowing some time for the report to be written up with recommendations on what work we might take forward to a WG to deliver a specific useful tangible output.
There is plenty of talk in this domain. But Kantara value proposition that it is about 'doing', and the community will be the better for a useful deliverable as a result. Let's not divert from that goal.
That said, there is nothing to stop another DG, or a re-charter of this DG, working on a another suite of use cases perhaps for a particular context.
Cheers
Colin
Jim,
With regards to legal contracts for data-sharing, this could be (should be) a good use-case for BSC.

I agree with /thomas/. There is no reason smart contracts could not be done via a protocol with the back-end system be unknown.
IPFS could be used as an example.
JLINC<http://www.jlinclabs.com/protocol/ > is one such idea.

Blockchains of adherence?
If smart contracts are published on well known URI’s, then agreeing to them by signing the contract and putting the MAC on the blockchain provides some level of assurance. This becomes even more powerful when the smart contract can accept or negotiate terms and what gets recorded on the blockchain memorialized the terms freely negotiated by both parties bots.

Thanks John,
Good piece.
I think there is still a lot of confusion about the promise of smart-contracts executing collectively on a syntax-rich set of nodes, vs the very limited Bitcoin-blockchain of today.
Maybe BSC-DG could come up with our own new terms or language to describe the possible features of smart contracts.
