Excelsior Pass divergence #3

Should it be mentioned, e.g. as a security consideration, that proof type EcdsaSecp256r1Signature2019 is used by the NYS Excelsior Pass but not according to this specification? More info: https://github.com/spruceid/ssi/issues/330

I suggest that the spec should stay silent on EcdsaSecp256r1Signature2019 if it's no longer used and/or widely deployed. It looks like the Plus one uses something different?

Suggest that we close the issue w/ no change to the specification. Would that work for you @clehner?

@clehner any further comments here or can this be closed?

I think Excelsior Pass EcdsaSecp256r1Signature2019 all expired and are no longer accepted. This spec no longer uses that proof type anyway (since b10095065d1acca58c08f0caf3aa5625860afd52). Excelsior Pass Plus is SMART Health Card (ref: https://github.com/mponton/vaxcheck/issues/2#issuecomment-922511555, https://github.com/fproulx/shc-covid19-decoder/pull/6#issuecomment-903433322)
