Current status of did:keri

* Previously there was did:un, some features were not yet supported. Jolocom had an implementation of direct mode, the intention was to use it on mobile wallets.

Then the intention was to switch from did:un to a more robust implementation of did:keri, using some good learnings from the initial experimentation work.

*Some work is split across different environments, so besides a documentation effort there also needs to be some alignment.

The goal is to continue and further expand the work on the DID method specification, to figure out how all the KERI building blocks can be utilized together in a method spec.

Some questions are still open, e.g.: How is a did:keri globally resolvable? How do I know what are the witnesses? How exactly do you contact the witness? How are different key purposes mapped to a key event log? How can additional metadata be associated with a DID?

Hi Timothy, we’re working on an R&D project here in Brazil where we intend to study and explore the use of KERI, ACDCs, and CESR standards. We believe these protocols can play a key role in advancing our decentralized identity solutions and are excited to contribute insights from our experience. Thank you for promoting this effort to enhance standards!
