RE: REQUEST for preliminary review: Verifiable Credentials Data Model 1.0

Hi APA,

I have finished my review of Verifiable Claims Data Model [1]. Because this document describes a data model, there is little to discuss regarding accessibility.

A few notes:
- There are no image descriptions for images.
- it might be a good idea to add a sentence about ensuring accessibility of tools that will be used for VC. The non-normative sections at the end go into a lot of detail about privacy and security. It might be worth adding a short note about ensuring accessibility of the tools that process this data. 

I am happy to share this with the Verifiable Claims WG or let you pass it on.
