DID resolution context is not accessible #78

Open vmidyllic opened 1 month ago

vmidyllic commented 1 month ago

Fetching context from https://w3id.org/did-resolution/v1 gives 404. Is it expected?

@peacekeeper maybe you can help

wip-abramson commented 1 month ago

Because the DID Resolution work has been taken on the by DID WG, the spec has moved locations along with the context.

The new location for the context is: https://w3c.github.io/did-resolution/contexts/did-resolution-v1.json

My guess is we need to update the w3id mapping to direct to this new location.

I agree the w3id mapping should be updated..

And eventually I imagine we will probably have an "official" context URI such as https://www.w3.org/ns/did-resolution/v1 or something like that.

Side(-ish) note: I recommend adopting a pattern of: <baseUrl>/v1rc<release candidate number> until the spec reaches PR (or perhaps right before it when tests are passing for enough implementations in CR). This makes it easier for software that is written while the standard progresses to keep functioning properly against some pre-finalized context version.

As a concrete example, it would be better for people to use:

https://w3id.org/did-resolution/v1rc1 (or whatever base URL is desirable here)

...until another release candidate comes out:

https://w3id.org/did-resolution/v1rc2

...repeating until PR (or right before):

https://w3id.org/did-resolution/v1
