introductionURL really issuerId url? #1

Thank you for this great contribution. It really helped me better understand the flow between the Wallet and the issuer. One question (well, maybe two):

The introduction_url in your conf.ini - strictly speaking, is that really the 'issuer identification URL' (as described by Kim here: https://community.blockcerts.org/t/issuer-hosting-requirements/31)?

During an introduction, doesn't the Wallet first make a GET call to the issuerURI, to get the issuer name, image, etc., and also to get the introductionURI (as I think you described here: https://community.blockcerts.org/t/interface-between-the-blockcerts-app-and-the-issuer-url/1201/4 ), and then POSTs to the introductionURL?

Correct, that's actually the issuer id url
