The W3C Verifiable Credentials Working Group has published a Snapshot Candidate Recommendation of the Controlled Identifiers specification. This follows the five Candidate Recommendation Snapshots published by the working group in December 2024. Two of these specifications, including Securing Verifiable Credentials using JOSE and COSE, depend upon the Controlled Identifiers spec. The planned update to the W3C DID specification also plans to take a dependency upon it.
A W3C Candidate Recommendation Snapshot is intended to become a W3C Candidate Recommendation after required review and approval steps.
Thanks to my co-editor Manu Sporny and working group chair Brent Zundel for their work enabling us to reach this point.
