ECO describes the outward-facing discovery, access, and delivery of ecosystem offerings, including how available evidence, status, and access conditions may be communicated. Its five-part map relates that role to application articulation, cross-system data stewardship, assessment methodology, and validation dispositions.
This overview separates conceptual responsibilities from a proposed five-stage operating sequence. Both describe intended relationships; neither represents a live assessment, approval, access, or delivery system.
Distinct responsibilities around one application context.
SAiHi sets organizational architecture and overarching principles. The ECO responsibilities describe how application context, disclosures, assessment, and dispositions relate to outward-facing discovery and delivery. Their layer numbers identify roles, not the order in which systems execute.
Layer 01
ECO Offerings
Discovery, Access, and Delivery
ECO describes the outward-facing discovery, access, and delivery of ecosystem offerings, including how available evidence, status, and access conditions may be communicated. The current discovery page is a read-only public preview.
DIPs for DApps describe an application’s purpose, architecture, and declared behavior in a scoped dossier concept. The public HomerOS example is illustrative, not a live submission or authoritative specification.
Data Stewardship brings relevant data practices and systemic implications into view as a cross-system disclosure and evidence concern. It is not a separate product, live intake service, or access-control mechanism.
APProach articulates assessment methodology, evidence, evaluation, credibility, and readiness. How findings would be considered depends on applicable criteria and policy, which have not been established; no live assessment is represented.
APProVALS communicates validation rationale or a disposition. Explicit policy must define who holds final authority; that responsibility remains unresolved. A disposition does not itself authorize publication, access, or delivery.
The five numbered areas describe responsibilities and information relationships, not an execution order. The proposed conceptual sequence appears separately below; neither description establishes an operational system.
Context / evidence / relationships
Information stays tied to its context.
DIPs for DApps describes an application’s architecture and intended behavior. Data Stewardship brings relevant data practices and systemic implications into view as a cross-system disclosure and evidence concern. APProach describes assessment methodology; APProVALS describes how validation rationale or a disposition would be communicated. A linked dossier is a conceptual relationship around a scoped application version, not a live records system.
Evidence can support, challenge, or leave claims unresolved. Provenance, context, dependencies, version, and missing information matter. The public preview accepts no submissions and contains no evidence review or assessment service.
One application / dossier conceptConceptual relationship
Conceptual scope / application context
Declared behavior, evidence, and relevant responsibilities
Layer 01 / ECO Offerings
Outward-facing discovery, access, and delivery of offerings.
Layer 02 / DIPs for DApps
Application architecture and intended behavior, described in context.
Layer 03 / Data Stewardship
Cross-system disclosures and evidence about data practices.
Layer 04 / APProach
Assessment methodology, evidence, evaluation, and readiness articulation.
Layer 05 / APProVALS
Validation rationale or disposition; final authority requires explicit policy.
Relationships, not automation. The map describes how responsibilities may refer to one application context. It does not represent automated data flow, technical integration, or an operating dossier service.
Governance / policy / functionality boundary
A disposition does not authorize delivery.
APProVALS communicates validation rationale or a disposition in the conceptual model. Any authorization to publish, provide access, or deliver an offering must be established separately by explicit policy. Verification of what is made available is a separate factual question. No authority or policy is named here, and the public preview implements none of these decisions or controls.
Assessment concept
APProVALS disposition
Communicates validation rationale or a disposition within the conceptual model. A disposition is not an authorization to publish, provide access, or deliver an offering.
Unresolved policy
Publication or delivery authorization
Any authorization must be defined separately by explicit policy. This site names no authority, rule, permission, or enforcement mechanism.
Separate verification question
Verified publication or delivery
Checking what was made available is a separate factual question, not an automatic result of assessment, disposition, or authorization.
An intended role or disposition does not create policy, authorization, or functionality. The public preview provides no access, approval, publication, or delivery controls.
Intended logic / proposed sequence
Five stages describe intended logic, not a live workflow.
Proposed conceptual logic · policy and implementation remain separate
The stages explain a possible relationship among application articulation, evidence, evaluation, disposition, and ECO discovery and delivery. They are not an adopted procedure or an automatic chain. Criteria, thresholds, decision rules, and final authority remain undefined; no stage is executed by this website.
01
Articulate
Describe the application, its intended purpose, architecture, and declared behavior through the DIPs for DApps concept.
02
Examine
Identify relevant evidence, limitations, dependencies, and assessment considerations. Data Stewardship is a cross-system disclosure and evidence concern, not a separate product or live intake service.
03
Evaluate
Describe how findings would be considered against applicable criteria once those criteria are established. Criteria, thresholds, and decision rules are not defined here.
04
Determine disposition
APProVALS communicates validation rationale or a disposition. Explicit policy must define who has final authority; that responsibility remains unresolved.
05
Discover and deliver
ECO may present offerings and communicate available evidence, status, and access conditions. An APProVALS disposition does not automatically authorize publication, access, or delivery.
Governance roles / policy boundary
Evidence, review, and disposition are separate responsibilities.
Conceptual roles / unresolved policy
Assessors
Would examine an application’s declared behavior and relevant evidence, noting what supports, challenges, or leaves claims unresolved. Applicable criteria can inform that work only after they are established.
Reviewers
Would examine scope, sources, reasoning, and how uncertainty or conflicting evidence is represented. Review is a distinct responsibility; it does not by itself assign final decision authority.
Evidence
Can inform, challenge, or leave a finding unresolved. Provenance, version, context, dependencies, and gaps matter; a source-labeled claim alone is not independent evidence.
Decision-makers
Would issue a disposition only under an explicit policy that defines authority and responsibility. The policy and final decision authority remain unresolved here.
Concept
System responsibilities and relationships are described.
Proposed procedure
The five-stage sequence expresses intended logic, not an adopted operating procedure.
Policy
Criteria, thresholds, decision rules, and final authority remain undefined.
Functionality
This site has no live assessment, numeric scoring, public submission, approval, or enforcement workflow.
The website explains architecture and intended logic. It does not adopt criteria or authority, accept evidence, produce an assessment, authorize participation, or enforce publication.
