We have done several more UI/UX sessions that have improved our mocks for how the iphone app has evolved relative to legacy RootsWallet UI https://www.figma.com/file/LHCGgzmUOnDuqs421g7sg2/Roots-id?node-id=0%3A1&t=Banqrv2otEjRbv8I-0. We have continued to evolve our unified UI repository that is capable of being run in android, iOS, and web https://github.com/roots-id/roots-react-native. We have also had several more meetings with the Atala Prism team to plan our iPhone integration and for the first time ever completed prism calls from iphone through our new UI. This completes the functionality for this proposal.

In this second month we have used several PoC implementations of JWT and JSON-LD credentials. We have continued to lead the Cardanon SSI Alliance working group called the anoncreds-wg. The Slack server/channel for that group is https://cssiaworkspace.slack.com/archives/C047EH5FJK0 and the github repo for the meetings, documentation, and anoncreds method for Cardano is https://github.com/roots-id/cardano-anoncreds

We have completed the implementation an open source proof of concept for how to use Cardano as a KERI backer and provided a jupyter notebook for running the demonstration of the proof of concept. We attended many KERI meetings and did several planning sessions in order to achieve this first ever achievement on Cardano and for the KERI community. There have been several discussions about follow-on work within both communities to leverage this work in support of use cases for both Cardano and KERI and discussions regarding future work to utilize did:keri, RootsWallet, DIDCommV2, etc.

We have attended over 60 SSI meetings and one SSI conference (Fall 2022 Internet Identity Workshop in Mountain View CA). We have lead several new meetings in Hyperledger Aries (aries-didcommv2-wg) in the Cardano SSI Alliance (anoncreds-wg) and in DIF (didcomm-ug). We presented the first integration of KERI on Cardano (Cardano KERI Backer) to the BiWeekly KERI meeting.

We began the effort by doing several mocks for how the iphone app might compare with the current RootsWallet UI https://github.com/roots-id/rootswallet/issues/122. We have started a UI repository that is capable of being run in android, iOS, and web. This is the beginning of major improvements to RootsWallet UI, which could only be run in android. We have simulated about 60% of the RootsWallet UI so far in this new repository https://github.com/roots-id/roots-react-native. We will continue to flesh it out. We have also had several meetings with the Atala Prism team to plan our iPhone integration and will be collaborating with them to improve their swift SDK and open API.

In this first month we have completed several PoC implementations of JWT and JSON-LD credentials. We have also participated in comparison and analysis of the well-known credentials within the global SSI community, documented here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Z4cYfjbbE-rABcfC-xab8miocKLomivYMUFibOh9BVo/edit#gid=1590639334. We have discussed and debated the latest changes to be considered for the Latest VC Data Model spec. And finally we have started a Cardanon SSI Alliance working group called the anoncreds-wg. The Slack server/channel for that group is https://cssiaworkspace.slack.com/archives/C047EH5FJK0 and the github repo for the meetings, documentation, and anoncreds method for Cardano is https://github.com/roots-id/cardano-anoncreds

For this effort we have planned our milestones, mocked the interaction in RootsWallet for displaying the credential, and begun design/implementation of the service that will provide the credential. The open source service can be found here https://github.com/roots-id/wal-bot. The open source identity wallet can be found here https://github.com/roots-id/rootswallet. The mocks for the Discord Social credential in RootsWallet can be found here https://github.com/roots-id/roots-react-native/issues/21

The project admin and documentation set-up is complete. We have onboarded three researchers and are in the process of onboarding a fourth. We are working through the literature collation phase of this project, and then will focus on collation for a second Catalyst research project this coming month.

We have enjoyed the last 6 weeks of attending meetings at ToIP, DIF, Hyperledger, and KERI. The meetings and relationships have lead to two specific Fund 9 proposals to collaborate with ecosystems outside of Cardano, whose communities could benefit from the Cardano/Atala Prism communities. We have finished 4 vlogs on youtube, including the latest RootsID SSI Report - S1E4 - NFTs and VCs. We have attached that latest video, but you can also see it on our youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkWndfxfz5_UxJFWfyXKD_w
