Remove Credential Issuer as a subtype of ParticipantAgent #163

Closed jimmarino closed 9 months ago

jimmarino commented 9 months ago

In the [Dataspace Model], Credential Issuer is a subtype of ParticipantAgent. This relationship should be removed as an issuer may not be a dataspace participant. For example, a third-party issuer such as a state or auditor, could issue verifiable credentials that are trusted by dataspace participants without being a participant itself.

The only change that needs to be made is to the Relationships Diagram

Closing this because it is not listed as a subtype.
