Use case for personal curation in the repository

Open stonematt opened this issue 7 years ago • 9 comments

I'm trying to map my expectations of how we issue and validate professional credentials into the documented use cases, and I think we have a gap. UC C.4 https://opencreds.github.io/vc-use-cases/#professional-credentials implies what I'm thinking, but I'd like to express a use case that's centered around the individual's process for collecting and curating their own data.

This process would bridge several of these categories of use cases. In C.4 we state that Jessica "has a variety of digital claims" but none of the uses cases suggest how that came to be and interacting with the credential repository is pretty ambiguous. I'd like to add a use case in this area. A repository is likely to serve the "whole individual", storing claims that speak to a combination of education, forma professional credentials, professional training, legal identity, interests and hobbies, etc.

I'd like to see explicit use cases that deal with this tactical exercise of an individual managing their portfolio -- adding, removing, maybe even generating bundles of claims for sharing and validation.

Is this a new category? Anyone else think this would be a useful add?
