Deliverables

•  Augment Indy Plenum with support for managing Group DIDs representing DLT networks
•  Augment Indy SDK to add methods to create and manage Group DIDs
  •  (Optional) Augment Indy VDR (future replacement for Indy SDK) to add methods to create and manage Group DIDs
•  Create sample Indy testnet as model IIN (verifiable data registry) with support for maintaining Group DIDs and associated VCs
•  Create trust anchor module built on Hyperledger Aries to represent a consortium that issues VCs to a group represented by a Group DID
•  Upgrade Cacti Fabric IIN Agent to connect to an IIN and sync identities and certificates from another network
•  Create Cacti Corda IIN Agent to connect to an IIN and sync identities and certificates from another network
•  Write appropriate configuration files for IIN Agents, IIN Trust Anchors, and IIN testnet
•  Update Corda CLI to launch IIN Agents
•  Unit and Integration tests
•  Update Decentralized Identity-related RFCs
•  Write tutorial documents for users to configure and launch an IIN and appropriate IIN Agents for the participating DLT networks
