Collection Reference about cips HOT 4 CLOSED

@oed @michaelsena updated the schema

from cips.

How does the applications block relate to the access-control doctype? How do they interact with one another? How is this access control enforced?

One potentially naive thought that comes to mind is to have an optional "secret" property here. Uncovering the secret would allow access to the underlying data store in reference. The access-control doctype could provide more information about how to decode and use the secret? Is that dangerous? Do doctypes generally store secrets?

@Schwartz10 yeah I think that's a resonable approach. We've thought about storing symmetric encryption keys within a separate document, encrypted to the public key of the DID. Each symmetric key is then used to encrypt an entry in the collection reference here.

Closing, stale.
