Taking at Protocol to the IETF
8 hours ago
- #IETF
- #Decentralization
- #Standardization
- Two drafts submitted to IETF for standardizing parts of AT protocol.
- Authenticated Transfer Repository and Synchronization draft specifies repository format and sync semantics.
- Authenticated Transfer: Architecture Overview draft describes broader network architecture.
- Approved for Birds of a Feather (BOF) session at IETF 124 in Montreal.
- BOF aims to gather feedback on WG charter and drafts, not forming a working group yet.
- Focus is on repository and sync protocol, excluding Lexicon, OAuth profile, and other AT components.
- Narrow scope due to need for focused charters and foundational nature of repo/sync protocol.
- IETF chosen for its neutral governance, open process, and balance between decentralization and functionality.
- Public GitHub repo available for feedback on drafts before BOF.
- Encouragement to attend IETF 124 or provide feedback remotely.
