Doma, I agree with much of the last paragraph of your post where you state: "Unlike the Attestation faction, I don't think WAVE needs to achieve an important stake in Attestation to be successful. After all, WAVE has infinitely more LEVERAGE power simply through the licensing of the Embassy TAN. Keep in mind, that ALL the Trust Domain members of TCG will need to license an Embassy TAN, or be LOCKED out of the TCG Network! Isn't that LEVERAGE!!!!? Don't you think WAVE can come up with a business model involving the Embassy TANs without involving Attestation? Isn't WAVE fundamentally involved as a GateKeeper to the TCG Network? But being a Gatekeeper does not entitle WAVE to force other Trust Domains to use Embassy's Utility Software package ( which I believe is the hidden assumption underlying many in the Attestation faction"
Let me ask you some questions....
1. Awk refers to the Embassy TAN as a TCG TAN. Would you agree with his reference and why?
2. Wouldn't one of Waves business models relate to Applet development toolkit sales, certification, licensing etc etc? Could you elaborate on this from a tech standpoint.
3. What are your thought on programmability? Who will manage this space? Wouldn't this be another terrific business model?
4. You state: "But being a Gatekeeper does not entitle WAVE to force other Trust Domains to use Embassy's Utility Software package ( which I believe is the hidden assumption underlying many in the Attestation faction"
Why wouldn't it force other trust domains to use utility software? Who will manage the VAULT, backup and restore etc etc? Example: When a business burns to the ground and they lose their servers and backup. Who will they call to restore their vital business information? Isn't this one of Waves major business models as well and wont these utility services only be offered by Wave?
I appreciate your post and look forward to your response. Jeff
