Yes, understood, and to be more precise, these are the concrete things I'd like APA to weigh in on in the next 3-6 months: * The Credential Handler API implementation - being incubated in the W3C Credentials CG, used across all industries to drive the graphical user interface that stores and retrieves Verifiable Credentials. How does this interface interact with JAWS, Orca, ChromeVox and other a11y software? * The a11y profile use case, specifically the data model that would be most helpful to be able to express as a verifiable credential. Specifically, what attributes of the individual should be able to be expressed and in what way. For example, "the individual prefers the minimum font size to be 18 points in size", or "the individual prefers a high-contrast color layout", or "the individual prefers prompts to be auditory with a volume level of 80 decibels". * The service animal use case, mentioned in a recent thread. > Verifiable Claims A minor nit that, as a community, we've decided to start correcting folks on. The technology, group, etc. have been renamed to "Verifiable Credentials"... the use of the former was a mistake that we've paid for over the past several years. From now on out, please refer to the work as "Verifiable Credentials". Even we accidentally slip into calling it the wrong thing from time to time. :) -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: Veres One Decentralized Identifier Blockchain Launches https://tinyurl.com/veres-one-launches
