Even  if we don't end up with a system exactly as described in this document, we're going to end up with something like it. Why? It addresses the need for each of us to have an individual set of identity credentials, that we manage ourselves, the way we handle cards and documents in a wallet, and it addresses the issues of confidentiality, reliability, persistence and efficiency. This document is a long and detailed description of self-sovereign identity, from the perspective of a certificate provider, and something every education technologist will want to at least know about, if not understand deeply enough to be planning to use something like this in five to ten years.
