At present, CBOR-LD is an experimental format that is undergoing
implementation feedback. We know of four organizations that have
implemented CBOR-LD processors. The spec is in bad shape, there is no
test suite yet, but we do have demonstration of a few non-trivial
encoding/decoding use cases that are working (mainly related to the
TruAge digital age token format).

I expect 1-2 years more of incubation, spec refinement, and test suite
development before we try to take it standards track at W3C. The core
concept and base implementation seems to be holding well in the use
cases that are using CBOR-LD... we just need more time to get
implementation feedback before trying to put that first standards
stake in the ground.

I do think that CBOR-LD is moving at an accelerated pace from what we
had originally intended... but, of course, I don't want to make any
predictions based off of a burst of activity over the past few months.

Why do you ask?
