tbs - note that the KI Operating Procedures refer to the deliverables of DGs as "Reports", so I stuck with this vs. "briefing note"
Introduction
tbs - brief history of group formation and launch - audience for this report (primary: Kantara leadership; secondary: others)
Recommendations and Key Takeaways
tbs - reference use cases, technologies, and issues by number from sections below as appropriate
Terminology
tbs - include if there's any terminology that's necessary to understand this document (note, should be no need for any RFC2119 because DGs can't produce normative Recommendations)
Summary of Liaison Activity
tbs - both internal and external - IRM, IDoT, UMA, CIS, other
Purpose
tbs - (from July 19 discussion) We want to focus on use cases that are about "contracting and transacting" in the context of empowering individuals, smaller companies, smaller countries, and communities in a "peer to peer" way with larger companies and countries etc. (not meaning P2P technologies necessarily, though it might do so). "Legal" means a formal statement of relationships, and it could include contracts, permits, consents, and so on. All legal documents increment relationships between some "Persons" (including both human and non-human). (from email followup to July 21 minutes) We briefly discussed how the connection of identity taxonomies to our work effort is that transactions/contracts involve parties (as Jim's emailed taxonomy demonstrates). I don't imagine we want to take on a meta-taxonomy effort, nor a whole new comprehensive taxonomy effort, but this connection is definitely important, and probably something to touch on (or cover at more length?) in our briefing note.
Technologies and Techniques Potentially Applicable to Solving Use Cases in Scope
tbs - need to collect them here, decide the level of detail at which to describe them, and then do so - blockchain, smart contracts specifically, CommonAccord, IPFS, "legal contracts" specifically?, what else? - presumably each in a subsection
tbs - do some kind of analysis comparing different kinds of contracts? - do some kind of analysis comparing any other "like" things that are in the mix? do this in a separate top-level section?
Use Cases
tbs - present each of the analyzed and approve use cases here, presumably each in a subsection (or transcluded?), drawn from this page
tbs - identify and analyze issues uncovered through the use cases - do this in a separate top-level section?
