How to register new verification method type?

[jaroslavsaxa]

<not an issue, but request for help> - We should like to register new verification method type key/signature. Can you please navigate how this can be done in did-spec-registry?

@jaroslavsaxa

1. write a spec that define the method type
2. open a pull request to the did spec registries to register it

Examples:

• https://github.com/w3c-ccg/lds-jws2020
• https://github.com/w3c-ccg/lds-ed25519-2020/
• https://github.com/OR13/lds-blockchain2021/
• https://github.com/decentralized-identity/EcdsaSecp256k1RecoverySignature2020
• https://github.com/OR13/lds-pgp2021

I also maintain a list here as well: https://ns.did.ai/

For example:

• Add support for JsonWebKey2020 and JsonWebSignature2020 #96

https://github.com/w3c/did-spec-registries/blob/6296fb1c7bbf786c34ef6612776a3cb2d38c7f11/index.html#L1093

Can I move this issue to the did spec registries?

Hi Orie, Thank you very much for this! There is clear description for new did method for verification method type and or other changes (non editorial) no so clear for me so I rather asked. Thank you and sorry to bother, Yes, you can move this issue to the did spec registries jaro From: Orie Steele ***@***.***> Reply to: w3c/did-core ***@***.***> Date: Tuesday, 11 January 2022 at 18:31 To: w3c/did-core ***@***.***> Cc: Jaroslav Saxa ***@***.***>, Mention ***@***.***> Subject: [External] Re: [w3c/did-core] <not an issue, but request for help> - We should like to register new verification method type key/signature.

@jaroslavsaxa I have transferred the issue, please feel free to link any work in progress here, and I am happy to review.

[bahner]

Ah. Thanks. I was afraid to ask. I have an incoming PR that I don't really think should be immediately approved, but also isn't silly.
This was helpful.
