This page describes the GovStack meeting notes. We use this meeting page to both run the meeting and keep notes, actions and decisions.
To avoid long meeting where the current status of each report is read out, we ask all participants to read the links below before the meeting, add in any questions they may have and then ask them in the meeting. This will focus the meeting upon the questions, decisions and actions needed for greatest impact.

DPI Summit | @Eskandar, Hani | Comments from Hani Summit will stay in Egypt but move to Cairo Scheduled for June 11-13 MCIT is requesting (more) formal documentation about goals/priorities for summit. Team will get together to discuss this later this week Co-Develop has started on list of attendees and proposed agenda. Need to ensure that GovStack is properly represented during the summit Goal is to invite 600-700 people, each partner should reach out to groups to invite Thinking to make this an annual event It could be helpful to have a broad perspective beyond specific regional solutions/architectures. This could be an opportunity for the EU to share their perspective Opportunity for GovStack to be more vocal and share about our solution more generally There will be an exhibition area where we could perhaps have sections for GovStack, DIIA, Egypt, etc Andrea: Highlight that GovStack is an enabler of other specific solutions, the role that GovStack plays is different and important/valuable. Ramkumar: Might be a good opportunity to have countries share about GovStack on our behalf, this could have more impact. |

Update on Identity WG (on behalf of @Nico Lueck ) | Martha and I created a shortlist and consulted with Jaume to select the right persons. We sorted to persons we would like to see A) as technical experts actively writing Specs and B) possibly volunteer contributors (most times silent or representing a BB provider).
The existing team members will of course be invited to continue with the working group. | |
Need to decide on how to recognize contributors | This work was started but is not currently progressing. Wes: Suggesting to follow up on this actively after the Brussels meetings Andrea: Perhaps Martha/Ramkumar/Wes could take this up going forward | |
