It is important to clarify this early to focus the discussions and maintain the appropriate level of precision and accuracy.

I believe the Primary Target Audience is software people: software architects and developers - both application developers consuming DID Resolution services as well as DID Resolver builders and maintainers.

This is actually more important during the development of the specification (vs. "at the end"). That being said, this will be helpful for future versions of the specification. Here is an initial shot at the verbiage to add to the Introduction: cc: @peacekeeper

Intended Audience

This specification's primary audience is implementors of systems and services that use decentralized systems technologies (e.g. decentralized identifiers and verifiable credentials). The intended audience includes, but is not limited to, software architects, data modelers, application developers, services developers, testers, operators, and user experience (UX) specialists. In addition, other people involved in a broad range of standards efforts related to decentralized identity, verifiable credentials, and secure storage may also be interested in reading this specification.

@mwherman2000 I think this sounds great! Maybe this should be a small sub-section under the "Introducion" section? Do you want to create a Pull Request for this?

mwherman2000 commented 2 days ago

Sure. Most likely not until next week. Hopefully before the next meeting.
