Call for Review: VerifiableShippingEvent Profile v0.1 (Issue #4)

Hi everyone,

I’ve just opened a new issue to track the development of the
*VerifiableShippingEvent
Profile v0.1*. This profile is a key piece of our architecture, bridging
GS1 EPCIS 2.0 event data with the W3C Verifiable Credentials ecosystem.

*View the full draft and contribute here:*

This document defines how a shipping business step can be expressed as a
cryptographically verifiable claim. It covers everything from field-level
mappings to the derivation of DIDs from SGLN identifiers.

*Immediate Areas for Feedback:*

   -

   *Mapping Logic:* Are the cardinality rules for sourceParty and
   destinationParty (Section 4.3) consistent with your real-world shipment
   data?
   -

   *DID Derivation:* Does the proposed GLN-to-DID resolution model (Section
   5.1) align with your existing identity infrastructure?
   -

   *Revocation:* We are mapping EPCIS errorDeclaration to VC
   revocation/correction. Does this logic hold up for your audit requirements?

Our goal is to move this toward a formal Work Item, so your
implementation-first feedback is vital. Please post your thoughts, edge
cases, or technical critiques directly in the GitHub issue linked above.

Best regards,
