>We've asked the larger organizations that are financially benefiting from this work to put similar amounts in... it rarely ever happens. >Governments have been stepping in to help more recently because they understand the positive effect on the global economy in supporting standards. Governments source tech from the same marketplace as everyone else, so it is more about ensuring the existence of a competitive, diverse ecosystem of solutions that can interoperate at scale. >Next steps that we identified at W3C TPAC: >* Improve DID tooling around JSON-LD / canonicalization. >* Improve VC tooling around JSON-LD / canonicalization / DID resolution. >* Migrate all key and signature formats to COSE. >If large organizations would like to help accelerate this work by funding it, there is a route for doing so. >Get in contact with me if you are interested, and I'll put you in touch with the appropriate people at Spec Ops to make it happen. Interested in learning more. However, not that interested in going down the "Grants" and "Competitions" path as we are not a Basic Research Organization - We typically utilize performance based contracts with clear milestones and deliverables :-) Best Regards, - Anil Anil John Technical Director Silicon Valley Innovation Program Science and Technology Directorate US Department of Homeland Security Washington, DC, USA anil.john@hq.dhs.gov Email Response Time – 24 Hours
