The recording (including Q&A) is up, for that talk and for some of the others: https://video.fosdem.org/2022/D.web3/ If you've seen a command-line DIDKit demo before, this is not really new - other than trying to also provide an introduction to VCs and DIDs for a general FOSDEM audience. The presentation slides are here: https://demo.didkit.dev/2022/01/fosdem/ There was also a Matrix chat room created for the talk, which is still open: https://chat.fosdem.org/#/room/#web3-didkit:fosdem.org (FOSDEM-hosted Element web client) https://matrix.to/#/#web3-didkit:fosdem.org (app-independent link) One of the other presenters in the Web3 Infrastructure devroom track, i3-Market (Alessandro Amicone), also demo'd verifiable credentials (with DIDs): https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/event/i3market/ They showed a desktop credential wallet and web-based credential API. Ceramic's talk (Joel Thorstensson) also showed use of DIDs, including the did:pkh method, did:3 and did:nft: https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/event/ceramic/ The SOLID talk by Jackson Morgan showed RDF and JSON-LD, and included mention of credentials: https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/event/solid/ There were also many other interesting talks; a top-level overview is here: https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/ and the full list here: https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/events/ Many have slides and/or video recording available; for some the recording is still in review/processing.
