# Information about implementations known to the Working Group

There are no known implementations at this time, but at least four implementers exist that have signaled that they will implement the specification, with a focus on interoperability, once a test suite is ready.

# Note

The Working Group is currently in Maintenance mode; this usually means that the WG is not chartered to bring new features to Recommendation. ***HOWEVER***, in the case of this Working Group, the charter explicitly made an exception for a few cases, including this one. See bullet item on reserved extensions in [the scope section of the charter](https://www.w3.org/2024/10/vc-wg-charter.html#scope).
