Announcements

dw: will be moving to Copenhagen to start up new company that will support ARKs and other infrastructure
tc: ACTION: will try to coax a Familysearch rep to join this group

Any news items we should blog about? Any calls for papers, submission deadlines, upcoming meetings we should note? Please add to Calendar of events.

dw: didn't make the USRSE deadline and won't be attending PIDFest; should we try for the Force11 conference?

N2T resolver status (current target upgrade date April 10)

dv: resolver upgrade planned for 8am PT; mostly just domain name change and certificate swapping, so rollback (if needed) will be easy
tc: what technical changes will there be to n2t?
dv: some not widely advertized internal stuff; n2t api changes, and the ?info inflection will return JSON

dw: ark requests with inflections get passed to arks.org though, right? What inflections will n2t.net handle natively?
dv: all handled by end resolver

dv: new n2t code will be available on GH
dv: new public naan registry will work on a JSON version, but for now the
    naan_registry.txt file will remain

dw: what license? we should tell people up front
dv: action: will look into open source licensing; probably MIT

NAAN request processing status
dv: expect upgrade in early summer for naan processing changes
static site pages, and working group pages

ARK spec (v38) to be renewed before May 9


dv: an alternative is to make : or :/ a config option

jk: would like to route to a newer spec
dw, dv: yes, newer is better
dw: in fact I've assumed newer is better and implemented it
jk: so did BnL

dw: The issue of “what should arks.org do for convenience?” (via naan config)
    and “what resource should we direct implementers to?” seem separate. I am
    in favor of linking to v39 as the “current draft recommendation”.

    The ARK recommendation should be to mint without, to respect what you're
    given, and in perpetuity to use

dw: will be doing a complete ARK implementation soon and will return with feedback
