Agenda:

• Pick a time for an ad hoc report working session
• Work on use cases on the call (finally!)

Attending: Eve, Kathleen, Jeff S, Adam M, John M, Scott S, Domenico, Adrian, Jim, John W

NOTE: No BSC telecon this Thursday because we couldn't find a chair pro tem.

Eve, Thomas, Kathleen, and Scott D had expressed particular interest in an editing session. We'll work out a time for that and advertise the time. (John W and Domenico have some interest.)

Regarding the Stellar Consensus Protocol-involving use case: John W notes: "Disclaimer re: Stellar Consensus Protocol. I work with JLINC Labs which uses the Stellar blockchain for our open source JLINC protocol."

John M describes his new "Evidence Notebook" use case: It's trying to achieve what Jim describes as proof-of-existence in a way that can be private at first. He provides three variations, e.g. to provide signatures. Community peers could even provide counter-signatures even if they can't see the content. He's prepared for lots of discussion over all of this. Adrian ties these ideas to his for doctors signing patient-centric prescriptions, noting that no smart contract is needed in his scenario; for John's use case, the signature is independent and doesn't need smart contracts while the escrow does.

Observing commonalities in use cases: John W sees that there are attributes (facts??) that are frozen and verifiable. In the identity space, these might be identity attributes.
