To: W3C Credentials CG <public-credentials at w3.org>
Hi all,
New specs have been published for Hashlink:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sporny-hashlink-03
... and for HTTP Signatures:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cavage-http-signatures-11
Some highlights from the most recent specs:
HTTP Signatures
* 25 implementations! (no, that is not a typo)
* Used by PSD2, Berlin Group, and STeT (European banking standards)
* Used for banking standards in Europe, OCAP-LD, HTTP-based DID Auth
Secure Data Hub authz (spec on its way in Summer 2019)
* We are putting together a test suite in order to do real interop
testing for the 25 existing implementations.
Hashlink
* We failed to specify that arbitrary metadata is possible, this
version fixes that.
* Added Security Considerations section wrt. DO NOT use MD5/SHA-1, etc.
These are a few of our building block specs for some of the technologies
being worked on by the CCG.
