MIMI Interim Meeting - Sept 18, 2024

Basic Recipient Preference Requirement (slide 9)

  • Rohan: If you don't include a tag, what gets returned?

    • Femi: Everything gets returned. During discovery, all the
      mappings get returned. No need to request an exact tag name.
    • Rohan: Some concern about the privacy implications of the tags.
  • Rohan: Concerned about sensitive tags (e.g., for personal groups of
    a sensitive nature).

    • Femi: Could give those groups a code name so they are not
      exposed.
    • Rohan: Could enumerate tags.

Security and abuse preventon (slide 17)

  • Alissa: Do we think rate limits can distinguish between legitimate
    and illegitimate request volumes?
    • Femi: Can address this with token buckets assigned to individual
      requester accounts.

Additional areas (slide 19)

  • Alissa: These are not imposing requirements on the protocol,
    correct?
    • Femi: Correct.

Discussion

  • Rohan: How many DPs will there be? 10s, 100s, 1000s?

    • Femi: Could be up to 500 or 1000 over time. Want smaller players
      to be able to participate.
  • Rohan: Re Orie's comment about UTF-8 for tags. Could have a registry
    but also with some user-defined portions.

Summary

  • Alissa: We will send call for adoption to the list and solicit
    reviews.

Future interims

  • Rohan: Will have updates on access control, anti-abuse, and content
    format coming.
