[DP0031] Title is vague and ambiguous ...not appropriate for a Principles document #68

Closed mwherman2000 closed 3 years ago

mwherman2000 commented 3 years ago

Submission Synopsis

There is still an outstanding issue related to the use of “SSI” in the title of the document: “Self-Sovereign Identity, as a standalone phrase or as an acronym (SSI), is a very confusing, overloaded, ambiguous term whose use should be avoided in all situations.”

Problem/Concern

Proposed Solution

The following suggestions are more precise, more accurate, and non-confouding titles for the document:

• Principles of an SSI Ecosystem • Principles of a Digital Trust Ecosystem

This issue might be best handled at the 'upstream' for the Principles of SSI. Please file an issue at https://github.com/sovrin-foundation/possi and subsequent to a decision we'll update this instance of the PoSSI design principle
