Difference between VID methods and DID methods?

[peacekeeper]

I understand the difference between VIDs and DIDs, but I think the term "VID method" isn't defined or explained anywhere. In the OpenAPI specs, there are the following endpoint and data structure:

• https://github.com/trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol/blob/a703e4c3c1d1f1f5e8ec5983409d342c769d0988/api/toip-tswg-trustregistryprotocol-v2.yaml#L305
• https://github.com/trustoverip/tswg-trust-registry-protocol/blob/a703e4c3c1d1f1f5e8ec5983409d342c769d0988/api/toip-tswg-trustregistryprotocol-v2.yaml#L890

But the description says it returns a list of DID methods. If there is no difference between VID methods and DID methods, then why use this term in the API specs? Or is the idea that in the future there could potentially be non-DID VID methods?

@peacekeeper, PR #73 migrates all VID methods to DID methods and keeps it consistent throughout the specification. It has been proposed at one of the TRTF calls and may move forward pending alignment. Would this alleviate this concern?

@andorsk Yes this looks good to me, thanks!
