Dear Advisory Committee Representative,

This is a Call for Review of a proposed new charter for the Verifiable 
Credentials Working Group:

The deadline for responses is 03:59 UTC on 2022-06-04 (23:59, Boston

Under the proposed charter the Working Group will concentrate on a new 
version of the Verifiable Credentials Data Model, originally published 
in 2019, with some minor updates in 2021 and 2022. The proposed team 
resource is 0.15 FTE.

charter is approved.

The group is currently chaired by Brent Zundel (Evernym) and Wayne Chang 
(Spruce Systems). Accepting the new charter includes the nomination of 
Kristina Yasuda (Microsoft) to replace Wayne Chang (Spruce Systems).

In anticipation to this review, the current charter [3] of the Working 
Group is extended until the 31 July 2022.
