W3C will eventually ask us to change that URL to something like this: https://www.w3.org/2019/did/v1 When the DID WG closes, the content at that URL will be frozen for all of time. It will become acceptable, and we will encourage people, to permanently cache that URL in implementations (no going out to the network necessary, and no need to do JSON-LD processing if you hardcode your implementations). This is the exact approach we took for Verifiable Credentials (and in our own implementations) and it seems to be working just fine. Happy to entertain/debate assertions that this approach doesn't work, because if it doesn't, we're in for a world of pain in the VCWG and the WoT WG. :) -- 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
