Meta: 2022-09-15 CASA Gathering CAIP-25 Workshop

[rekmarks]

A workshop focused on CAIP-25 was held during the second in-person CASA gathering in Berlin on Thursday, 2022-09-15. I took notes and facilitated the session, during which various design problems / concerns about CAIP-25 were discussed. 6 items were recorded in total:

• CAIP-25: extensions considered harmful? #139
• CAIP-25: Do wallets need their own namespace? #140
• CAIP-25: Should there be a notion of sessions, and should they expire? #141
• CAIP-25: Is "handshake" the appropriate word for the CAIP-25 procedure? #142
• CAIP-25: The specification must describe how to handle successive CAIP-25 requests #143
• CAIP-25: The behavior regarding accounts is confusing #144

Since we did not take minutes, I cannot reliably attribute specific concerns to specific people, and attempted to represent the consensus opinion (or lack thereof). I encourage participants to raise any concerns they have with my representation of the proceedings in the relevant issue(s).

Finally, among the near-term CAIP-25 stakeholders in the room, there was widespread agreement that some of these issues will require further synchronous discussion. I will ensure that such a meeting is scheduled. I have a tentative list of attendees, but please reply to this issue if you want to participate.
