> Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
> Chairs,
> 
> It is my pleasure to announce that Verifiable Credentials Data Model 1.0 is now a W3C Recommendation:
>    https://www.w3.org/TR/2019/REC-vc-data-model-20191119/
> 
> Credentials are a part of our daily lives; driver's licenses are used to assert that we are capable of operating a motor vehicle, university degrees can be used to assert our level of education, and government-issued passports enable us to travel between countries. This specification provides a mechanism to express these sorts of credentials on the Web in a way that is cryptographically secure, privacy respecting, and machine-verifiable.
> 
> All Members who responded to the Call for Review [1] of the Proposed Recommendation showed support, with several reviewers indicating that they produce or expect to produce products that use this specification.
> 
> Please join us in congratulating the W3C Verifiable Claims Working Group [2] on this achievement.
> 
> This announcement follows section 7.1.2 of the W3C Process Document:
>   https://www.w3.org/2019/Process-20190301/#ACReviewAfter

> Thank you,

> For Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director,
