This specification provides a mechanism to express\nthese sorts of credentials on the Web in a way that is cryptographically secure,\nprivacy respecting, and machine-verifiable.\n\nWe encourage contributions meeting the [Contribution\nGuidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md). While we prefer the creation of issues\nand Pull Requests in the GitHub repository, discussions also occur\non the\n[public-vc-wg](http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-vc-wg/)\nmailing list.\n\n## Verifiable Credentials Working Group\n* Group page: [https://www.w3.org/2017/vc/WG/](https://www.w3.org/2017/vc/WG/)\n* Charter: [https://www.w3.org/2022/06/verifiable-credentials-wg-charter.html](https://www.w3.org/2022/06/verifiable-credentials-wg-charter.html)\n* Chairs\n  * Brent Zundel - @brentzundel\n\n### Verifiable Credentials github repos\n* [Use Cases](https://github.com/w3c/vc-use-cases)\n* [Data Model](https://github.com/w3c/vc-data-model)\n* [Implementation Guide](https://github.com/w3c/vc-imp-guide/)\n* [Data Model Test Cases](https://github.com/w3c/vc-test-suite)\n\n### Discussion Forums\n* [W3C Credentials Community Group Mailing List (Incubation)](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-credentials/)\n* [W3C Verifiable Credentials WG Mailing List (Standardization)](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-vc-wg/)\n\n## Process Overview for VC Data Model Pull Requests\n1. Anyone can open a PR on the repository. Note that for the PR to be merged,\n   the individual must agree to the\n   [W3C Patent Policy](https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy/).\n2. Once a PR is opened on the `v2.0` branch, chairs and editors make judgement\n   call on whether changes are substantive or editorial.\n   \u003cdl\u003e\n     \u003cdt\u003eEditorial\u003c/dt\u003e\n     \u003cdd\u003eMark with \"editorial\" tag\u003c/dd\u003e\n     \u003cdt\u003eSubstantive\u003c/dt\u003e\n     \u003cdd\u003eMark with \"substantive\" tag.\u003c/dd\u003e\n   \u003c/dl\u003e\n3. W3C CCG is automatically notified of PRs as they are raised and discussed.\n4. PRs are usually merged in 7 days if there is adequate review and consensus,\n   as determined by the Chairs and Editors.\n\n### Roadmap for 2022-2024\n\nThe VCWG has a set of\n[deliverables](https://www.w3.org/2022/06/verifiable-credentials-wg-charter.html#deliverables)\nand a\n[timeline](https://www.w3.org/2022/06/verifiable-credentials-wg-charter.html#timeline)\nlisted in the most recent\n[VCWG charter](https://www.w3.org/2022/06/verifiable-credentials-wg-charter.html)\n\n### Debugging Github Pages Build Errors\n\nThere are times where Github Pages will fail to build with nondescript errors\nsuch as \"Page build error.\" or \"Symlink does not exist within your site's\nrepository\". You will need to run github-pages locally to debug such errors.\nTo run github-pages, which uses Ruby and Jekyll locally, you will need to\n[set up a working Ruby and Bundle environment](https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001070131-Using-Bundler-to-install-Ruby-gems).\n\nAfter you have installed Ruby and Bundle, you will need to do the following:\n\n```\ngem install jekyll github-pages\n```\n\nThen create a `Gemfile` file in the top level directory with the following\ncontents:\n\n```\nsource 'https://rubygems.org'\ngem 'github-pages'\n```\n\nThen run the following command:\n\n```\nbundle exec jekyll serve --watch --force_polling\n```\n\nYou should be able to see the page build errors in detail upon running the\ncommand above.\n\n### Local Development\n\nThis spec is built with [`respec`](https://respec.org/).\n\nTo develop locally, first install `respec`; then, you \ncan build the spec locally using the following command, run from the project's root:\n\n```sh\nrespec --localhost index.html out.html --verbose -e\n```\n\nNext open up `out.html` in a web browser and review the document.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/w3c.github.io%2Fvc-data-model%2F","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/w3c.github.io%2Fvc-data-model%2F","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/w3c.github.io%2Fvc-data-model%2F/lists"}
