Hi all, Just a quick announcement about Verifiable Credential Refresh 2021 - A data model and protocol for refreshing Verifiable Credentials. Verifiable Credentials can expire. It is useful to provide instructions on refreshing the credential for the times when expiration is imminent or has already occurred. The refresh can be performed manually or, with the prior consent of the credential holder, automatically. This specification defines manual and automatic refresh mechanisms that Verifiable Credential issuers can utilize to enhance the experience when managing the lifecycle of their credentials: https://digitalbazaar.github.io/vc-refresh-2021/ We expect to suggest adopting this as a work item in early 2022. For now, this is just a heads-up that a few of us intend to implement this specification in the coming months. Comments, concerns, and PRs are welcome. :) -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc.
