# Link to group's decision to request transition

PROPOSAL: Publish the Verifiable Credential Data Integrity 1.0
specification as a Candidate Recommendation on 28 September 2023
(https://w3c.github.io/vc-data-integrity/CR/2023-09-28/) with a CR
period ending on the last day of November 2023 and with exit criteria
requiring two independent implementations of each mandatory (MUST)
feature in the specification.

# Changes

https://w3c.github.io/vc-data-integrity/CR/2023-09-28/#revision-history

# Requirements satisfied

Yes.

# Dependencies met (or not)

There are two dependencies on Multibase and Multihash, which are
expected to be published by a new IETF Multiformats Working Group. If
the dependencies fail to materialize in a stable way, the
specification (and the cryptosuite specifications) contain specific
Multibase and Multihash values that can be used such that an external
dependency is not necessary.
