How is message extensibility achieved? #9

Open msporny opened 8 years ago

One proposal for providing message extensibility is to allow messages to be interpreted as JSON-LD with a specific context, such as https://example.org/contexts/web-payments/v1. Doing this would not only solve message versioning, but it would also enable decentralized extensibility for all payment messages while ensuring that there are no clashes in terminology between industry verticals.
