+Decision about checkpoint format?
+ * First line is a free form unique log ID
+ * Leave everything else as is
+ * If anyone wants Verifier("Property X") from witnessing -> use [otherdata]
+ * Leave [otherdata] undefined for now, focus on Verifier("Append-Only")
+ * Possible documentation TODOs
+ * Warning: monitors need to ensure that they have fresh append-only views. The base witnessing format helps with append-only, not freshness.
+ * Warning: if you plan for witnesses to peek into [otherdata], it would probably be a good idea to propose a common format that will facilitate such witnessing.
+
+Way forward in sigsum?
+ * Easiest thing right now is to just add checkpoint as an endpoint and keep everything else as is. This should work well with TrustFabric's Feeder/Distributor thoughts.
+ * Motivation
+ * Don't have to figure out [otherdata] exactly right now "in a rush"
+ * Others can add their opinion and discuss what [otherdata] should (not) be
+ * We can do a proper trial-run of the design that we have and learn from it
+
+What do we do now with sigsum x trustfabric?
+ * Homework until next time to think about this?
