First Public Working Draft: Verifiable Credentials Data Model v2.0

   11 August 2022
   <https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/9650>

   The Verifiable Credentials Working Group has published a First Public Working Draft today for the "Verifiable Credentials Data Model v2.0." This specification provides a mechanism to express credentials (driving license, university degree, vaccination documents, etc.) on the Web in a way that is cryptographically secure, privacy respecting, and machine-verifiable.

   <https://www.w3.org/TR/2022/WD-vc-data-model-2.0-20220811/>

   This First Public Working Group Draft is, essentially, identical to the "Verifiable Credentials Data Model v1.1" Recommendation, published by the Working Group in March 2022. It is a starting point for the development of what will become the next major revision of the technology.
