Hi all, New specs have been published for Hashlink: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sporny-hashlink-03 ... and for HTTP Signatures: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cavage-http-signatures-11 Some highlights from the most recent specs: HTTP Signatures * 25 implementations! (no, that is not a typo) * Used by PSD2, Berlin Group, and STeT (European banking standards) * Used for banking standards in Europe, OCAP-LD, HTTP-based DID Auth Secure Data Hub authz (spec on its way in Summer 2019) * We are putting together a test suite in order to do real interop testing for the 25 existing implementations. Hashlink * We failed to specify that arbitrary metadata is possible, this version fixes that. * Added Security Considerations section wrt. DO NOT use MD5/SHA-1, etc. These are a few of our building block specs for some of the technologies being worked on by the CCG. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: Veres One Decentralized Identifier Blockchain Launches https://tinyurl.com/veres-one-launches
