Rough AgendaMarkus Geiß

Comments on API welcome since it is very new.

Mifos can ignore Backwards compatibility: Stellar will work towards compatibility within their Java API.

Testing in global vs. test vs standalone network

Jed McCaleb

Bartek Nowotarski

Live public network: https://horizon.stellar.org

Global network passphrase: NETWORK_PASSPHRASE="Public Global Stellar Network ; September 2015"

Test network: https://horizon-testnet.stellar.org

We can create our own network for tests purposes.

Creating a horizon server is not strictly necessary; we can use theirs.

Implementation of a federation server

Jed McCaleb

Bartek Nowotarski

https://www.stellar.org/developers/learn/concepts/federation.html

Bartek will create the federation server

An implementation already exists at https://github.com/DominikTo/stellar-federation  Jed informed us that it is out-of-date.  The Protocol has changed slightly since it was created.

Question still open: global or customer installation based federation server?

Account domain should be configurable per Mifos tenant.

Future communicationJed McCaleb

Bartek will assist Myrle.  His preferred communication is via slack channel.

http://slack.stellar.org

Jed will set up a slack channel.  Bartek is in Poland, so in the same time zone.

Testing worse case scenarioJed McCalebThe worst case scenario is 5 transactions/second.  Horizon should be the bottleneck and not the Connector.
Miscellaneous 

Within Stellar we create one account per tenant.  The account within the tenant that should receive/ has sent

  funds is part of their memo information.




Action items

  • Get decision on global vs. per customer installation of federation server
  • Provide feedback on API.
  • Setup communication channel between Bartek and Myrle
