Hey
everybody,
it's
john
wilpert
and
the
baseline
crew.
Here,
a
big
team
today
hope
you're
all
seeing
us
and
hearing
us
we'll
check
that
in
a
second.
B
I
can
hear
us
all
right,
yeah,
it
looks
like
we're
we're
up
and
it's
good
to
see
everybody
today.
This
is
a
special
event,
we'll
be
talking
about
the
upcoming
technical
steering
committee
elections.
B
Sonal
patel
will
be
talking
about
some
of
the
projects
that
we
saw
at
east
atlanta
and
interviewing
some
of
those
teams
and
people.
It
was
a
very
educational
event
and
it
was
very
fun
to
be
there
in
atlanta,
with
so
many
of
the
people
you
see
here
on
the
call
and
in
general
lots
to
talk
about
today.
That's
why
we
have
so
many
people
on
and
someone
wanted
to
take
it
away.
D
All
right,
thank
you,
john
okay,
so
we're
gonna
get
right
to
it
and
we'll
save
the
end
for
any
extra
comments
or
conversations
that
people
want
to
have,
but
we'll
start
with
the
technical
steering
committee.
So,
as
most
of
you
know,
the
votes
are
in
for
the
candidates
that
will
be
running
for
the
technical
steering
committee
coming
up.
D
So
first
I'll
give
some
context
on
the
elections
and
then
we'll
have
some
of
the
candidates
who
are
here
with
us
today
give
little
introductions
to
give
you
an
idea
on
who
you
may
want
to
vote
on.
So
just
to
begin.
The
technical
steering
committee
is
accountable
for
the
project
governance
board
for
bootstrapping
the
core
developer
group,
stepping
in
to
resolve
any
conflicts
on
merges
or
court
developers
self-organization.
D
So
everybody
in
the
community
who's
interested
in
baseline
and
supports
the
governance
of
decentralized
communities
should
be
interested
in
this
because
it
gives
you
a
vote
and
a
say
in
who
some
of
our
committee
members
will
be.
Who
will
be
driving
the
direction
of
baseline
moving
forward?
And
on
that
note,
in
order
to
be
an
eligible
voter.
So,
in
order
to
get
a
ballot
and
cast
your
vote
on
who
should
be
part
of
the
committee,
we
require
that
you
submit
a
pull
request
and
it
has
to
be
merged.
D
So
I
will
take
that
on
as
my
job.
If
any
of
you
out,
there
are
submitting
a
pull
request
from
now
until
next
wednesday,
which
is
when
the
votes
will
open
up.
Please
message
me
on
slack
tag
me
in
the
pr
on
the
github
hub
repo.
I
will
be
on
it
to
make
sure
it
gets
merged
in
time
for
you
to
have
a
vote,
so
the
votes
will
take
place
next
wednesday.
D
They
will
be
open
for
one
full
week,
allowing
you
to
get
to
know
the
members
and
make
a
choice
who
has
a
voice,
but
those
pull
requests
can
be
related
to
making
any
change
within
the
repo
john.
If
you
want
to
touch
on
that,
you
gave
a
really
good
spiel
on
that
during
the
cordov
meetup.
B
Sorry
I
had
to
get
over
my
window
yeah,
so
I
think
that
the
you
know
the
important
thing
about
being
a
core
dev
is:
is
that
we're
being
yeah
we
have
now?
As
of
now,
we
have
sort
of
a
v1
of
of
the
base
core
implementation.
B
D
B
Oh
yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
so
contributing
to
the
repo
does
not
have
to
be
time
consuming
yeah
it
right
now.
It's
important
that
the
important
thing
is
that
you
get
on
the
what's
called
the
icla.
B
You
know
when
you
do
a
pull
request:
you'll
you'll
click
sign
the
icla,
that's
important
for
us
any
standards,
body
or
open
source
organization.
That's
serious,
so
you'll
sign
off
on
that,
and
that
will
do
things
like
ensure
that
you
are.
You
know
who
you
are
and
and
that
you
are
confirming
that
your
contributions
are
original.
Not
you
know
taken
from
someone
else,
so
a
certificate
of
originality,
all
that
stuff.
B
So
when
you
do
that,
then
you're
you
are
a
member
of
the
team
and
for
you
know,
don't
feel
like
you
need
to
have
some
major
contribution.
I
mean
literally
a
spell
check
will
do
for
now
just
to
get
you
on
the
roll
so
that
you're
voting.
D
Yep-
and
we
also
have
chat
from
oasis
here
with
us
today,
to
make
any
extra
comments
about
what
the
election
process
will
be
like
chad.
Do
you
want
to
add
anything
not.
E
Not
yet
it's
all
good!
So
far,
once
we
get
into
the
details
I
can
help
out,
but.
B
E
Right
so
so
per
the
per
the
oasis
rules.
Electronic
ballots
have
to
remain
open
a
minimum
of
seven
days.
So
what
we
will
do
is
the
the
the
ballot
itself
is
going
to
be
a
google
spreadsheet,
with
the
eligible
voters
having
editorial
access
to
it,
so
that
anyone
who's
eligible
to
vote
can
go
to
the
spreadsheet
and
just
go
across,
and
you
know
select
up
to
11
people
to
vote
for
on
the
tsc.
B
So
we
just,
we
did
discuss
chet
and
you
weren't
on
the
call.
So
I'm
going
to
have
to
inform
you
in
public
here
that
it
is
important
that
that
be
done
privately
and
that
the
people
that
can't
you
know
the
only
the
oasis
vote
counters
are
the
ones
seeing
who's
voting,
for
whom
oh.
B
E
Yeah,
okay!
Well,
then,
that
that
will
make
it
easier
because
we'll
have
what
we'll
do
we'll
send
out
a
form
in
the
announcement
and
then
it'll
be
send,
send
your
votes
back
to
claudia,
who
will
be
the
neutral
third
party
collecting
the
votes,
we'll
start
that
process
one
week
from
today
on
the
you
know
on
the
baseline
show
yeah.
E
Kidding
so
we
will
so
so
we'll
leave
it
open
for
the
week
and
then
that
way,
the
following
wednesday.
We
can
have
the
the
the
ballot
closed,
the
tally
ready
so
that
we'll
be
able
to
announce
the
the
the
new
tsc
on
the
on
the
baseline
show.
B
E
B
E
F
B
I
don't
think
we
get
to
change
it
after
today,
so,
but
this
is
a
matter
for
oasis
jet.
This
is
not
nobody
else.
You
know
nobody
on
the
dsc
and
I
certainly
can't
change
these
dates.
If
we
could,
then
that
wouldn't
be
fair,
the
oasis
body
is
the
appropriate
body
to
make
the
rule
to
make
the
decision
well.
E
B
B
B
E
Running
a
a
14-day
ballot,
a
13-day
right,
13-day
ballot
rather
nope.
Okay,
then
that's
what
we'll
do
we'll
open
it
on
wednesday,
we'll
close
it
after
13
days.
That
way,
the
the
results
will
be
ready
by
by
the
last
baseline
show
of
the
month.
Okay,.
D
E
Me
just
let
me
just
make
one
more
point,
part
of
part
of
the
reason
for
getting
the
pull
request.
If
you
haven't
done
it
already
in
order
to
be
eligible
as
a
to
vote
is
once
the
ballots
opened,
we
don't
add
anyone
unless
they
were
eligible
before
the
ballot
open.
So
you
need
to
be
eligible
at
the
point
where
we
open
the
ballot
to
to
be
able
to
vote
on
it.
B
B
All
right,
let's
get
to
it,
everybody
there
were
a
whole
bunch
of
really
great
developers
at
the
hackathon.
All
of
them
deserve
to
be
voters
if
they
want
to
be,
and
so
let's,
let's
do
a
pull
request
approval
party
on
tuesday
night
before
the
election,
so
that
everybody
who
wants
to
vote
gets
a
chance
to
vote.
D
All
right,
thank
you.
So
now,
we'll
have
some
of
our
candidates,
who
are
here
with
us
today
briefly
introduce
themselves
with
a
little
intro
about
themselves,
how
they
have
contributed
to
the
baseline
project
so
far
and
what
they
would
like
to
achieve
as
a
tsc
member
if
they
did
get
elected,
so
I'm
just
going
to
kind
of
go
in
the
order
of
my
screen
andreas.
If
you'd
like
to
kick
us
off,
that'd
be
great.
H
Or
if
I
can
actually
take
myself
off
mute
and
the
second
in
the
second
attempt
I
was
successful.
H
That
is
exactly
right.
Can
you
can
you
take
yourself
off
of
mute?
I
did
that
all
right.
Okay
done,
I'm
done
no,
but
for
those
who
who
don't
know
me,
does
anybody
not
know
me?
No,
I'm
just
kidding.
My
name
is
dr
andreas
freund.
I
am
the
blockchain
swiss
army
knife
because
I
do
work
across
the
entire
stack
from
infrastructure
all
the
way
up
to
legal
and
regulatory
questions.
H
I
have
been
involved
with
the
baseline
protocol
since
summer
of
last
year
and
have
been
driving
together
with
an
asia
or
frank
as
the
fearless
leader
and
carl
thomas
as
the
other
editor,
the
writing
of
the
baseline
protocol
standard,
which
has
been
ratified
by
the
tsc
and
is
now
in
front
of
the
pgb
for
for
final
ratification
as
a
draft
standard
and
then
hopefully,
as
a
final
standard.
I've
also,
you
know,
helped
within
the
community
to
as
a
as
a
technical
resource.
H
H
So
that's
that's
some
fun,
that's
some
fun
stuff,
so
we
didn't
hack,
but
we
we
did
the
hack
the
hacking
before
the
before
the
before
the
hackathon
and
john
did.
It
did
a
really
nice
demo
for
those
of
you
who
haven't
seen
it
it's
it's
it's
worth.
Checking
checking
out.
My
focus
is
on
scaling
baseline
protocol,
so
layer.
Two
to
that
effect,
I
I'm
actually
working
with
with
the
ethereum
foundation
to
get
an
ea
oasis.
H
Community
group
started
around
layer,
two
standards
building
on
what
has
been
done
for
the
baseline
protocol.
H
Also,
I'm
working
with
two
other
standards
bodies,
the
mobility
on
the
blockchain
initiative
and
the
metro
ethernet
forum
to
bring
baseline
to
those
to
those
to
those
industries.
There
is
a
standard
within
the
metro,
ethernet
forum
called
mef114,
which
is
an
operational
framework
for
dlt-based
billing
and
one
of
the
implementation
options.
That's
described
in
that
standard
is
in
fact
the
baseline
protocol,
even
though
it's
not
named,
but
anybody
who
wants
to
check
it
out
do
that.
H
So
this
is
I'm
planting
the
hooks
to
be
able
to
to
proselytize
baseline
protocol,
so
to
speak
across
standards,
bodies
and
industries.
B
H
B
A
Sure
sure
I'll
keep
it
short
and
sweet.
I'm
kyle
thomas
founder
of
provide
the
reference
implementation
for
the
baseline
protocol,
the
organizer
of
atlanta
provide,
and
what
I've
been
working
on
is.
I
would
consider
us
to
be
sort
of
a
a
big
driver
of
real
world
adoption
by
way
of
kona
and
servicenow
splunk
and
many
others
and
my
plan,
if
elected
I
was
gonna
say
like,
should
you
should?
A
Should
you
choose
to
accept
it
like
sort
of
mission,
impossible
style,
but
my
plan
should
I
be
elected.
Reelected
will
be
just
simply
to
continue
to
drive
the
technology
and
the
adoption
and
to
continue
to
participate
in
the
the
standards
process
as
it
as
it
evolves,
as
well
as
the
the
day-to-day
core
devs
process.
So
it's
been
a
lot
of
fun
being
a
part
of
baseline
and
I
intend
to
continue
to
be
a
part
of
baseline.
So
thanks
for
thanks
for
having
me.
D
Thank
you,
jack
waring,
you're
up
next.
I
Hi
everyone,
my
name-
is
jack
wearing
it's
funny
that
I
have
to
fight
against
the
swiss
knife,
so
I
will
call
myself
the
dutch
windmill,
no
just
kidding,
I'm
working
for
unibright
and
I'm
running
the
office
in
the
benelux
yeah.
I
think
everyone
understands
that
the
feasibility
of
the
base
and
protocol
on
social
media
is
also
really
important.
I
We
have
some
great
people,
john
cemrat
others
and
who
are
already
on
the
forefront
for
the
baseline
community,
I'm
more
the
guy
in
the
background,
making
connections
and
making
sure
all
those
great
things
that
are
being
done
are
properly
distributed
on
all
the
channels
and
helping
with
that.
I
was
there
from
the
start
when
john
asked
me
if
I
could
help
him
with
that,
to
do
the
twitter,
linkedin
and
all
the
other
channels.
I
Furthermore,
I
believe
that
we
can
achieve
a
lot
of
more
in
the
future,
also
in
europe,
for
example,
with.
I
C
Hey
guys,
I'm
david
jones,
I
lead
product
here
at
provide
along
with
kyle
thomas.
Let's
see,
I've
been
involved
with
the
baseline
protocol
since
summer
of
2020.
C
C
K
Hi,
so
my
name
is
luis,
I'm
from
brazil
and
I'm
a
software
developer,
I'm
working
with
as
a
solid
developer
since
2017,
and
I
have
also
experience
with
javascript
and
other
programming
languages
and
three
months
ago
I
had
the
opportunity
to
work
on
a
baseline
grant
where
me
and
boris
breslav
another
and
baseline
community
member
developed,
developed
zkp
secret
for
bonds
and
where
I
was
able
to
learn
more
about
secret,
zero
knowledge,
proof
and
baseline.
A
Louise,
have
you
seen
luis?
Have
you
seen
that
in
the
provide
privacy,
repo
I'll
actually
ping,
you.
G
Hello:
everyone,
I'm
mark
haddle,
no
stranger
to
the
baseline
community.
I
started
getting
involved
in
may
of
2020.
I
believe
it
was
and
within
my
career,
I've
largely
been.
G
My
roles
have
been
at
the
intersection
of
the
technical
and
business
domains,
communicating
all
of
managing
the
communication
between
the
two
different
domains,
managing
the
personalities,
the
egos
the
expectations.
G
G
Focusing
on
really
what
do
we
want
our
audiences
to
hear
not
so
much
as
what
we
want
to
say
we're
all
the
true
believers
and
we
know
what
we
want
to
say.
We
just
need
to
get
the
other
people
actually
engaged
and
wanting
to
take
action
with
their
baseline
projects.
G
What
we
want
to
do
is
we
want
to
demonstrate
that
our
solution
can
outperform
the
current
service
and
it
do
so
cost
effectively,
and
that
was
just
kind
of
a
nugget
that
we
weren't
able
to
actually
capture
within
blockchain,
so
baseline
does
not
present
really
many
of
the
same
problem
projects
that
problems
that
I
was
staring
in
the
face
before
we
ultimately
had
to
you
know
really
shift
away
from
certain
implementations
like
hyperledger
fabric
and
others,
and
to
where
you
know,
instead
of
actually
trying
to
do
that
entire
you
know
undertaking
why
not
just
baseline.
G
So
what
my
plans
are
for
the
future
is
basically
evangelizing
it.
Maintaining
that
the
business
and
technical
technical
objectives
are
aligned
and
moving
everyone
forward
to
that
ultimate
path
to
success.
F
Thanks
so
I
think
most
of
you
know
me,
but
thank
you
so
much
for
all
the
love
that
I've
been
having
on
the
baseline
show
india.
So
I
joined
the
basal
community
in
june
of
last
year
having
a
exciting
time.
You
know
actually
the
time
of
my
life.
I
belong
to
a
technology
strategy,
consulting
background
used
to
work
with
before's,
kpmg,
deloitte
and
accenture
strategy,
and
then
I
took
the
entrepreneurial
route.
I
started
my
own
company
as
well.
F
F
F
We
have
a
fantastic
lineup
of
speakers
as
well,
including
this,
this
week's
speaker
35
years
plus
experience
in
supply
chain
industry.
So
so
all
of
that
aside,
I
think
what
I
have
in
front
of
me.
F
If
I
get
reelected
number
one
getting
sponsors,
I
think
what
was
important
was
people
were
sitting
and
waiting
on
the
sidelines
they
need
to
jump
in
and
and
when
they
jump
in,
they
need
to
commit
to
things
like
go
to
market,
so
that
is
something
of
which
I
wish,
which
I
wish
to
draw,
which
I
wish
to
drive
contributing
to
cyber
security
and
gdpr
initiatives.
That
is
something
which
I
wish
to
drive
that
has
been
part
of
my
past
career.
F
I
used
to
be
an
it
responder
when
I
started
off,
so
I
can
contribute
to
adoption
of
the
standard
and
translating
some
of
its
requirements
in
terms
of
cyber
security
and
gdp.
So
that's
on
you
know,
that's
on
the
future
and,
of
course,
retaining
contributors
to
the
to
the
initiative.
I
think
that's
also
extremely
important
once
we
have
that
curve.
You
know
once
we
have
a
once,
we've
reached
that
curve
where
we
have
made
a
lot
of
noise
and
people
have
joined
us.
We
also
need
to
retain
the
guys
so
so
yeah.
F
I
think
I
see
these
three
things
in
front
of
me
and
I'm
I'm
glad
to
be
in
this
in
this
in
the
company
of
fantastic
folks.
Thank
you.
So
much
guys.
L
Yeah,
thank
you
very
much.
Stefan
smith
from
unibright
german
blockchain
integration,
company
yeah,
we
joined
baseline
as
a
founding
member.
Before
that
I
was
a
leader
of
the
eea
integration
task
force
and,
in
the
very
beginning,
took
care
of
that.
The
results
of
that
task
force
were
properly
brought
into
building
the
baseline
protocol
and
since
then,
I've
been
part
of
the
tse
which
was
very
interesting
and
a
lot
of
fun
and
besides
contributing,
I
always
try
to
learn
as
well,
which
is
totally
possible
within
the
baseline
space.
L
There
are
brilliant
minds
there,
so
it's
very
good.
It
feels
very
good
to
be
to
be
part
of
that
community,
yeah
and
since
then,
unibride
and
also
personally,
me
contributed
to
baseline
by
generating
leads
and
potential
clients,
building
enterprise,
great
integration
tools
for
baseline,
for
example,
like
the
recently
sap
certified
con
ubc
connector,
together
with
consul.
L
We
will
we
build
base
letter,
of
course,
and
we
are
developing
developing
it
parallel
to
the
to
the
standard
to
ensure
consistency
on
both
the
let's
say,
protocol
level
and
the
product
level
that
potential
clients
out
there
in
the
world
use
to
make
use
of
the
baseline
patterns
and,
of
course,
these
this
baseline
pattern
needs
to
be
explained.
A
lot
still,
I
mean
sumrat
and
also
mark
mentioned
that
before
so
that's.
L
I
also
see
that,
as
part
of
my
job
to
explain
the
baseline
pattern
and
the
need
for
decentralized
synchronization-
and
I
did
so
on
conferences
on
german
universities
and,
of
course,
in
our
publications
yeah
and
my
my
personal
feeling
is
that
next
year
will
be
the
year
of
baseline
adoption,
and
I
want
to
actively
contribute
to
that
with
continuing
my
work
in
the
tse
so
far
so
good.
Thank
you
very
much.
M
Thank
you.
I
had
the
same
issue
with
my
mute
button.
I
guess
so
I'm
fairly
new
to
the
baseline
community.
I
think
I've
talked
so
far,
mostly
with
john
on
some
occasions,
I'm
the
founder
of
siberian,
which
is
a
project
to
build
a
project
governance
platform
based
on
blockchain.
M
We
use.
We
have
several
synergies
with
the
baseline
protocol.
We
use
this
way
of
maintaining
the
transactions
in
a
project
network.
We
kind
of.
We
call
it.
We
used
to
call
it
an
archive
blockchain,
but
I
think
it
sounds
a
lot
cooler
and
we're
in
the
enterprise
space
as
well,
but
we
are
in
a
somewhat
related,
but
this
thing
sector
this
is
the
project
sector.
M
Projects
are
characterized
especially
pc
projects
by
groups
of
organizations
that
come
together
to
create
value
and
we
are
creating
a
method
where
projects
can
be
self
regulating
and
project
networks
can
be
autonomous
organizations.
M
So
I
do
want
to
be
a
bigger
part
of
the
baseline
community,
but
in
terms
of
the
tsc,
the
contributions
that
I
can
make
is
ensuring
commonalities
between
our
projects
and
what
wasteland
is
doing
and
also
to
have
a
greater
commonality
of
standards,
as
we,
you
know,
because,
coming
from
an
engineering
background,
one
of
the
key
things
I
think
you
know
for
making
blockchain
in
the
enterprise
space
more,
you
know
more
of
more
compelling
is
to
have
you
know,
standards
that
can
common
standards
across
a
bunch
of
use
cases
that
industry
can
relate
to.
M
So
that's
something
that
I
really
want
to
contribute
to
and
also
like.
I
said
you
know
the
work
that
we're
doing
in
the
realm
of
projects.
You
know
projects
are
a
multi-trillion
dollar
sector
and
they
have
several
unique
characteristics,
so
I
want
to
have
you
know,
build
the
synergies
and
commonalities
and
standards
between
our
work
and
what
this
science
is
doing.
N
Hello,
everyone-
this
is
karthik
solipuram,
I've
been
a
part
of
baseline
ever
since
before
baseline
was
formed,
worked
closely
with
john
walpur,
paul
rody
york,
rhodes
and
a
bunch
of
others
to
launch
the
baseline
protocol.
It's
an
effect,
I'm
one
of
the
founding
members
and
the
founding
technical
architect
behind
the
baseline
protocols
lance,
I
established
the
initial
form
of
the
privacy
architecture
for
the
zk
snark
and
zero
knowledge
framework
for
navigating
across
multiple
privacy
providers
worked
on
the
initial
parts
of
privacy.
N
Architecture,
along
with
kyle,
have
experience
across
different
privacy
providers
with
exactly
snarks
notches
and
others.
In
addition,
at
the
beginning
of
the
protocol
launch,
we
had
we,
we
did
receive
a
bunch
of
security
concerns
from
the
open
source.
Community
fix
some
of
these
critical
security
bugs
with
the
shield
and
verifier
contracts
and
in
the
pre-launch
of
the
base
ledger.
We
designed
the
protocol
for
bridging
and
presented
that
to
some
of
the
korea
foundation.
N
Members,
including
metallic
my
goal
as
tac
member,
is
to
drive
adoption
of
the
baseline
protocol,
bring
more
up
and
coming
encryption
standards
and
signature.
Verification
mechanisms
such
as
homomorphic
encryption,
bls
signatures
and
also
new
new
and
upcoming
privacy,
architectures
around
accumulators,
planck,
zkcc,
roll-ups
and
so
on.
Because
of
my
experience
in
smart
contract,
security
and
expertise
in
the
architectures
in
general
will
be
continuing
to
contribute
to
the
smart
contract
and
ledger
security.
N
I
also
am
a
part
of
several
standard
committees,
along
with
andreas
and
with
the
spearheading
done
by
andreas,
we'll,
be
looking
to
promote
and
adopt
the
baseline
protocol
and
standards
across
across
the
ethereum
foundation
and
the
enterprise
ethereum
community.
And
lastly,
with
the
advent
of
daos
and
decentralized.
N
Autonomous
organizations
would
like
to
see
how
as
a
ledger
as
as
a
new
protocol,
we
can
bring
in
the
impact
of
dows
and
how
we
can
provide
a
baseline
for
daos
as
well
happy
to
be
here
and
looking
forward
to
be
a
part
of
the
community.
B
Hi
everybody
I'm
john
walpur,
I'm
the
current
technical
steering
committee
chair
and
have
been
since
since
the
beginning.
I
should
probably
preface
this
by
saying
whatever
happens
with
the
vote
and
the
chair
position,
I
I
have
the
luxury
and
and
privilege
and
good
fortune
to
work
for
joe
lubin,
who
has
prioritized
this
work
and
allows
me
to
spend
most
of
my
time
on
baselining,
so
that
doesn't
change
regardless
of
the
vote.
B
I
think
that's
important
for
folks
to
know
so
please
pick
your
your
favorite
candidate
for
tscs
and
and
also
for
the
chair
and
know
that
I
won't
change
how
I
do
my
my
day
job.
B
I
think
the
smartest
thing
I
did
over
last
year
was
have
the
good
wisdom
to
hire
sonal
patel
and
prioritize
the
work
with
sonal
to
to
focus
on
baselining
and
really
upping
our
operational
integrity.
B
B
B
So
I
mean
this
is
the
time
to
start
really
accumulating
deal
flow.
We've
got
a
proposal
in
to
have
a
get
baseline
campaign
that
that
will
allow
people
to
select
sponsors
to
that
wish
to
be
part
of
or
to
respond
to
inbound
inquiry
so
that
we
can
start
generating
deal
flow
for
companies
that
are
stepping
up.
So
I
guess
my
my
campaign
slogan
is
ask
not
only
what
baselining
can
do
for
you,
but
what
you
can
do
for
baselining.
B
And
that
is
probably
as
silly
that
my
sound
is
actually
quite
apt.
I
think
that
is,
that
is
what
we
all
have
to
be
focused
on
is
what
can
we
do
to
pitch
in
and
how
can
we
improve
the
process
of
working
as
a
team
to
deliver
high
quality
standards
and
open
source
systems.
D
All
right,
I
think
that
wraps
up
the
tsc
section,
we
will
continue
posting
details
on
the
baseline
protocol
website,
be
in
touch
and
slack.
There's
any
questions,
and
this
panel
should
show
you
why
it's
important
to
vote.
We
have
a
ton
of
very
qualified
members
running
and
it's
up
to
you
guys
to
decide
who
becomes
the
official
tse
members
coming
up
and
I'm
going
to
segue
over
now
to
the
next
segment,
where
we're
going
to
do
a
little
reflection
on
the
east
atlanta
hackathon.
D
So
if
many
of
you
know
or
hopefully
follow
the
east
atlanta
took
place
this
weekend
and
we
had
a
wide
range
of
reputable
reputable
speakers
in
the
blockchain
and
enterprise
space.
But
we
have
two
possibly
one:
hackathon
team
right
now
joining
us
to
do
a
quick,
little
q
a
and
share
on
their
experience.
D
So
first
I'll
introduce
the
first
place,
hackathon
winner,
a
team
of
three
full-time
developers
at
a
large
company
that
they
will
disclose
to
their
discretion,
and
the
project
concept
was
removing
the
need
for
third
parties.
Verification
of
written
digital
signatures
so
I'll
hand
it
over
to
you
to
introduce
yourselves
first.
O
Hey
everybody:
my
name
is
mark
rimza,
I'm
a
lead
software
engineer
at
general
motors
and
in
school.
I
got
degrees
in
information
systems
and
international
business,
I'm
basically
a
crypto
enthusiast.
That's
now
a
blockchain
development
enthusiast
and
it's
great
seeing
everybody
from
eath
atlanta
on
the
call
had
a
great
time
with
you
guys
and
it's
great
to
be
here
with
my
team
and
thank
you
for
having
me.
P
Hey
everyone,
I'm
keith
salzman.
I
have
a
comp
sci
degree,
I'm
a
software
developer
engineer
at
general
motors.
You
know
leading
edge
tech,
math,
cryptography,
any
game,
changing
innovation.
It's
what
I
love
and
baseline
really
eloquently
combines
all
those
passions.
So
I'm
just
really
happy
to
be
here
with
all
these
baseline
giants
and,
of
course,
my
wonderful
hackathon
team.
J
Hello,
everybody,
my
name
is
joav
bitan.
I
am
graduated
with
a
degree
in
computer
science
and
I'm
also
a
software
development
engineer
at
general
motors,
so
I've
been
interested
in
crypto
and
blockchain
technology
for
a
while.
Now
I
actually
bought
into
ethereum
at
around
90,
and
I
spent
all
my
days
just
watching
its
price.
You
know
so
excited
to
watch
it
go
up
and
I
couldn't
believe
when
I
over
doubled
the
money
that
I
put
in
the
day
that
it
hit
200.
J
D
All
right,
thank
you
guys
for
joining
us
I'll.
Ask
some
questions
to
gauge
how
your
experiences
was
at
east
atlanta.
So
what
motivated
you
guys
as
a
team
of
full-time
developers
to
attend
and
join
the
hackathon.
J
Yeah,
I
can
take
this
one
so
personally.
J
We
also
all
agree
that
the
blockchain
space
is
on
the
forefront
of
technology,
and
we
thought
this
would
be
a
great
opportunity
to
get
involved
in
that
technology.
We
figured
the
best
way
to
learn.
The
stack
is
to
just
jump
right
into
it
and
build
something
through
the
hackathon,
especially
since
we
could
be
assisted
by
the
people
who
created
the
stack.
You
know
getting
help
directly
from
kyle,
for
example,.
O
So
I
think
we
saw
a
lot
of
you
know
highly
motivated
and
determined
people
building
a
lot
of
great
things
at
the
hackathon.
O
O
I
met
people
who
were
you
know
on
their
own
dime,
flying
out
to
be
with
people
at
the
conference,
people
who
are
developing
in
their
free
time
outside
of
their
job,
to
get
involved
with
blockchain,
even
college
students
who
you
know,
went
across
the
country
just
to
meet
and
connect
with
people
at
this
conference.
So
the
atmosphere
was
great.
O
It
was
full
of
highly
motivated,
highly
intelligent,
driven
people
who
want
to
spread
the
adoption
of
blockchain,
specifically
enterprise,
blockchain,
and
you
know
baseline,
and
it
was
refreshing
to
be
around
all
those
people.
You
know
people
who
are
interested
in
the
design,
the
architecture,
the
implementation,
rather
than
just
pumping
token
prices.
So
you
know
conference
was
great.
Atmosphere
was
incredible.
P
So
you
know,
after
coming
up
with
tons
of
ideas,
we
then
asked
the
questions
of
you
know
which
of
these
pieces
of
data
protection
kind
of
would
have
the
greatest
effect
and
kind
of
the
largest
amount
of
parties
involved
and
and
which
of
them.
Could
we
reasonably
do
within
the
time
frame
that
we
were
given
and
that's
kind
of
when
we
settled
on
baselining
digital
signatures?
P
Of
course,
with
input
from
you
know
various
again
baseline
giants
involved,
so
our
idea
was
essentially
create
this
temporary,
reusable
tokenized
version
of
a
digital
signature
that
would
require
some
refresh
after
a
given
period
of
time,
take
30
days
or
less,
and
that
would
affect
standard
as
a
proof,
someone's
legal
signature
without
communicating
that
data
and
eliminating
the
need
for
verification
of
third
parties,
and
we
ran
with
it.
D
Awesome
and
piggybacking
off
of
that.
What
was
the
biggest
challenge
that
you
guys
encountered
and
overcame
the
conference
working
on
your
project.
O
I
think
the
hardest
challenge
by
far
for
us
was,
you
know,
applying
zero
knowledge
proofs
by
you
know
designing
our
own
custom
circuit,
just
because
it's
so
new
to
us
and
it's
very
clear
after
working
on
it,
for
for
a
little
bit
that
there
are,
you
know
many
ways
to
prove
zero
knowledge,
which
you
know
really
highlighted
how
impressive
the
provided
baseline
stack
are
with
what
their
capabilities
truly
can
be.
O
You
know
in
in
the
hackathon
we
tried
to
design
a
custom
zk
circuit
for
our
written
digital
signature,
but
you
know
with
the
time
constraints,
and
you
know
how
new
the
concept
was
to
us.
We
weren't
really
able
to
convert
into
code,
but
it
was
definitely
a
fun
challenge
and
something
that
we
definitely
want
to
dive
deeper
into.
J
Yeah,
so
we
were
thinking
about
situations
where
two
parties,
don't
trust
each
other,
of
course,
and
we
we
thought
of
different
scenarios
in
a
casino
setting,
so
the
one
that
we
explored,
the
most
was
the
automatic
card,
shuffling
machines
that
a
lot
of
casinos
in
vegas
use
in
their
tables
and
many
people
avoid
playing
at
these
tables
because
they
don't
trust
the
machine
to
be
shuffling
the
deck
fairly,
especially
if
they've
had
you
know
bad
luck
at
one
of
these
tables.
J
With
ether,
though,
no
of
course
not
I'm
over
that
now,
I'm
holding
but
yeah.
Another
idea
we
were
thinking
about
was
tokenizing
identification
documents,
things
like
birth
certificates
and
passports
and
the
idea
there
would
be
to
eliminate
bad
actors
and
prevent
forgery
or
identity
theft,
and
another
thing
was
to
pass
credentials
through
to
websites
without
having
to
pass
through
any
private
data
like
logging
in
to
facebook
or
twitter,
for
example.
P
Many
things
I
think
the
first
one
would
have
been
to
switch
to
the
shuffling
baselining
with
the
cards
hammer
it
out
to
enterprise
level,
sell
to
vegas
and
retire
on
a
sandy
beach
somewhere,
but
we
didn't
do
that,
so
I
guess
really
with
our
digital
signatures.
We
really
wanted
to.
You
know,
get
that
custom
circuit
out
the
zk
circuit.
P
You
know
it's
just
too
much
time
constraints
to
hammer
that
and
put
it
into
code
or
even
using
one
of
the
default
circuits
that
we
could
fully
integrate
our
ui
with
the
ap
calls
to
emulate
that
provider.
Verifier
counterparty's
actions
visually
you
know
either
through
ui
or
even
to
implement
in
the
cli
for
like
a
poc
instead
of
having
to
kind
of
go
through
it
manually
and
show
the
steps
we
did,
that
would
have
been
really
nice.
P
I
think
the
last
thing
is
maybe
create
like
a
counter
circuit
for
the
verifier
and
proving
that
a
document
has
been
digitally
signed.
You
know
possibly
some
kind
of
like
zk
roll
above
the
proof
of
the
signer
and
the
signed
documents.
You
know
we
threw
around
a
lot
of
ideas,
but
we
just
you
know,
had
to
focus
on
getting
our
original
poc
work
through.
H
So
what
was
from
from
from
from
what
you
had
available
to
use,
what
was
sort
of
like
the
good,
the
bad
and
the
ugly
that
that
would
be,
because
that's
really
valuable,
to
figure
out
what
the?
What
what
to
focus
on
also
from
it
from
from
a
core
depth
point
of
view.
Right,
it's
like
end,
consumer
feedback
is
is,
is
the
best
way
how
to
to
to
build
product.
P
So
I
think
for
me
personally
kind
of
the
ugly
is,
though
I'm
familiar
with
like
zkp's,
but
not
with
any
of
the
implementation
of
baseline,
so
having
to
kind
of
sort
through
all
the
docs
and
build
things
together
kind
of
one
by
one.
You
know
it's
really
helpful
in
learning,
but
it
would
be
nice
and
it
may
exist
out
there
just
if
there
was
like
an
example,
architectural
thought
that
really
broke
things
down
for
the
first
time
user
to
say.
Okay,
I
can
see
the
flow
of
this
thing.
P
I
get
what
each
part
should
be
doing
now.
Let
me
inspect
each
part
down
to
a
detail,
so
that,
for
me,
was
kind
of
like
the
bad
ugly,
but.
P
I
I
really
don't
have
the
technical
expertise
to
answer
that
question
in
depth.
The
the
the
question.
H
Yeah
this
is,
it's
always
always
always
always
always
the
best.
If
you
have,
if
you
have
something
something
up
and
running
that
that
people
can
hammer
against
because
then
they
can,
they
can
try
things
out
quickly.
Have
you.
A
G
H
Right,
so
so
so
I
can
you
know
it's
like
we
can.
We
can
do
this
another
time,
but
there's
like
it's
like
it's
really
the
way
that
that
that
I
would
like
to
see
it
is
you:
do
you
do
npmi
baseline
baseline
baseline
package
in
in
a
in
a
in
a
node.js
project
that
you
that
you
started,
and
then
you
do
a
require
and
that's
it
and
you
you,
you
now
have
have
have
all
the
sdks.
You
can
connect
to
a
network.
H
That's
just
running
for,
for
you
know
that
is
maintained
by
the
community
and
you
can
start,
you
can
start
investigating
the
sdk
and
if
you
want
to
go
to
lower
level
sdk,
you
can
do
that
because
the
code's
available
that
kind
of
stuff
is
is,
is
what
I'm,
what
I'm,
what
I
would
like
to
see.
You
know
great
examples
are
out
out
there.
H
What
what,
for
example
in
diff
juan,
can
actually
talk
to
that
a
lot
more
because
he's
like
he's
like
living
breathing,
deaf
all
the
time
he's
a
great
guy
by
the
way.
H
Him
love
him
to
death,
even
though
right
now
he's
doing
something
patently
illegal
in
dc
and
no
he's
not
storming
the
the
sdk.
H
So
no,
but
but
that's
that's
like
you
know,
it's
like
there's
some
really.
You
know
examples
of
like
some
simple
tooling,
where
people
can
get
started,
even
even
like
a
knob
like
me,.
B
If
I,
if
I
can
so
I
mean
mark
and
keith-
and
there
were
some
other
folks
most
of
the
teams
that
that
we
were
talking
with
and
so
I'll
talk
to
each
one
of
them
individually,
you
know
did
find
that
they
were
they.
They
did
have
a
bit
of
trouble
figuring
out
the
kind
of
the
front
door
of
getting
into
the
you
know
some
of
the
parts
of
the
provide
stack
based,
ledger
and
right.
B
I
know
that
we
got
through
the
tree
trunk
demo
by
not
trying
to
engage
that
right,
because
we
just
threw
proofs
out-
and
we
said
we'll
put
them
on
base
ledger.
You
know
in
round
two
and
that's
how
we
got
there.
So
I
mean
let's,
let's
talk
frankly
about
where
you
would
find.
Where
did
you
get
stuck
and
not
just
in
general,
on
zk,
but
I
mean
like
you,
you
had
a
bunch
of
packages
which
packages
confused
you.
Where
did
you
know
where
to
start
where
you
know?
B
I
P
We
started
you
wanna,
go
ahead.
J
Yeah
sure
I
was
just
gonna
say
we,
we
found
ourselves
in
a
scenario
where
I'm
using.
I
was
using
sort
of
a
older
windows
machine
which
found
itself
with
some
issues
with
docker,
specifically
and
and
we
kind
of
ran
into
a
an
edge
case
in
in
the
stack
where
my
not
being
able
to
process
things
kind
of
broke,
our
entire
workspace.
P
I
think
that
you
know
again
once
we
wrapped
our
head
around
just
kind
of
the
basic
idea.
You
know
after
day
one
and
then
we
worked
out
the
example
with
the
provide
stack
with
messaging
and
everything.
P
We
were
confused
at
the
level
of
implementation
that
we
needed
for
the
hackathon
right
that
we
wanted
our
own
custom
zk
circuit.
What
was
this
necessary?
You
know
you
know,
and
then
it
was
made
aware
to
us.
So
there
are
kind
of
some
default
circuits
we
could
have
relied
on
to
go
through
that.
P
We
eventually
got
stopped
at
the
very
last
step.
Trying
to
make
use
of
you
know,
provide
privacy's
verification
call,
so
we
created
the
proof
and
then
you
know
the
verification,
call
the
witness
and
approve
we
were
getting
like
500
internal
server
errors.
So
at
each
step
we
had
to
keep
coming
back
to
the
docs
and
everything
and
asking
questions
but
yeah.
P
I
think
we
got
stuck
a
little
bit
at
each
step,
just
trying
to
figure
out
exactly
how
to
implement
it,
but
we
slowly
made
it
through
and
to
answer
andrea's
question
yeah
I
mean
provide,
was
great
in
helping
us
understand
things.
I
think,
just
as
traditional
software
developers
like
gm,
we're
more
used
to
kind
of
sdks
and
that
through
and
just
an
extra
obstacle
for
us,
particularly
in
my
experience.
D
C
Yeah
sure,
hey
guys,
so
we
kind
of
just
jumped
directly
into
base
ledger
core.
We
found
the
entropy
problem
interesting,
so
we
thought
we'd
try
to
tackle
it
and
I
think
at
first
just
like
spinning
up
the
entire
stack
so
just
using
the
cli
to
create
a
network
deploy
contract
as
like
a
bit
of
a
bespoke
solution.
So
I
guess
like
from
traditional,
like
solidity
development
you
can
just
deploy
to
like
ring
b
and
you
can
talk
to
the
contract,
provide
it's
a
little
bit
different.
C
So
we
ran
into
some
issues.
There.
Kyle
was
super
helpful
and
I
think
we're
still
in
collaboration
to
get
our
pr
in
but
yeah.
Besides
that
it
was,
it
was
fun,
a
lot
of
fun,
great
experience.
D
Awesome,
thank
you.
The
hackathon
participants
who
submitted
projects
and
joined
us
in
person,
as
well
as
those
who
joined
virtually
and
thank
you
guys
for
joining
in
today,
to
provide
some
feedback,
and
with
that
I
will
just
quickly
wrap
up
by
saying
that
our
official
baseline
coordinates
kickoff
will
take
place
on
monday
october.
11Th
invites
will
be
sent
out
very
shortly.
You
can
sign
up
on
the
sign
up
genius
which
we'll
post
a
link
to
which
can
be
found
through
the
baseline
website.
So
please
join
us.
D
We
will
make
sure
you
are
welcomed,
included
and
given
the
right
information
on
what
it
entails
to
be
a
court
of,
and
also
get
your
pull
requests
in
to
obtain
a
vote
in
the
tsc
elections
next
week,
and
with
that,
if
nobody
has
anything
else,
I
think
I'll
wrap
this
up
by
just
saying.
Thank
you
all
for
joining.
Thank
you
all
for
joining
the
audience.
This
is
a
very
useful
session
for
everybody.
A
So
baseline
is
a
is
a
complex
beast
and
it
is
so
in
such
that
you
have
to
have
more
than
one
party
to
baseline
anything,
and
so,
when
you
ins,
when
you
npm,
install
a
package,
that's
one
party
pm
installing
a
package
when
you,
when
you
have
a
second
party,
npm
install
a
package,
there's
got
to
be
some
sort
of
utility
around
there
around
that
action
to
connect
those
two
parties
to
a
work
group.
A
A
That
aside,
it's
the
entry
point
into
the
protocol
as
of
today.
That's
the
easiest
way
to
do
it
and
the
the
idea
is.
Perhaps
it
would
make
it
make
sense
if
the
quick
start
guide
walked
through
the
entry
point
into
joining
to
creating
and
joining
a
work
group
with
other
parties
and
then
showed
how
to
use
an
sdk
to
interact
with
that
work
group,
because
that
is
ideally
like
that
is
sort
of
what
we're.
A
What
our
goal
is,
that
provide
is
to
create
the
easy
button,
meaning
the
easy
way
to
create
and
to
create
and
set
up
infrastructure
and
then
to
write
code
that
uses
that
infrastructure.
So
that's
my
clarification
around
the
sdk
and
the
complexity
of
all
of
it.
Great
feedback,
though
thanks
a
lot
for
for
for
the
kind
words.
B
Thanks
kyle-
and
perhaps
our
our
new
wash
word
is
not
boring-
is
the
new
exciting,
but
in
every
every
day,
and
every
way
we're
getting
easier
and
easier
to
baseline
how's
that
we're.
B
Easy
is
the
new
exciting.
Is
that,
anyway,
right
on
easy.
B
Well,
with
that
sono
I
can,
are
you
releasing
us
to
our
own
recognizance.
