DID:Webs

17 June 2025

Existing KERI-specific Extensions

Media Type

A provisional standard media type, application/CESR, has been registered at IANA. Is anything more needed to be done here?

[We want to wait until the CESR spec is finalized]

Verification Method

An extension to the DID Core Specification, ConditionalProof2022, has been developed and is defined here. It appears that it still needs to be registered in the DID Document Property Extensions registry as a known Verification Method type. Also, its specification is outdated and would benefit from being updated. For example, did:webs is not listed under ‘Known Implementations’.

To Do

Application/CESR

  • Anything?

Multi-sig

  • ConditionalProof2022 needs to be registered as a DID extension.

  • ConditionalProof2022 specification needs to be finalized.

    • What is status? Is it still being used elsewhere?

    • Could it be pulled into ToIP? To KSWG?

    • Could it move into the DID:Webs specification?

Identifier Delegation

  • Proposal to implement this concept as a service needs to be finalized.

  • If we extend the core data model, we’ll need to register a new Service Type as a DID extension (see here).

Other Issues

  • Using ACDCs to sign. Still a thing?

    • Would require another Verification Method type to be developed, specified somewhere, and registered as a DID extension.

  • DID:Webs Service Endpoints

    • Partially addressed by the delegation question (see below).

    • More analysis is needed. Likely additional work in the spec will be needed.

  • DID Document Versioning

    • More discussion is required around the relationship between the DID Document and the KERI Event Stream as it pertains to verification. If newer versions of the DID:Webs spec can make older DID Documents unverifiable, we need to devise a sufficient versioning strategy.

  • Terminology Alignment with ToIP Glossary

    • More analysis is needed. It’s possible this has all been completed.

  • Update example blocks

    • Various updates

      • Consistency

      • Compliance with latest KERI versions

      • Comprehensiveness

Next Steps for Finalizing DID:Webs Specification

  • Next steps in the approval process?

  • What pre-work is required?

Other

  • Can I have permission to commit changes in the DID:Webs Specification GitHub repo (close issues, merge PRs, etc.)?
