    • ... to update ...
    • WIP: Feature flags to opt out of vdr-tools  or modular dependencies - https://github.com/hyperledger/aries-vcx/pull/763
  • Discussion: Guidelines for re-implementing state machines
    1.
    1.  No "Sent" states: Do not use <something>Sent  states which serve as "marker" that some message has been sent to a counterparty.
    2. Different
    1. Various final states: Different variants of final state should be expressed by different rust state types - eg. Success  / Fail  /  Declined  
    3.
    1. Received aries messages change state:Message from a counterparty always changes state - even if it's just ack . Finished state and "AlmostFinishedButWaitingForAck" in some protocol should be 2 different states.
    4.
    1. Intermediate states: Use intermediate states to enable separation of response processing and reply construction - for example PresentationPrepared  in ProofProver SM, PresentationRequestSet in ProofVerifier SM
       • The fact that the our "to be sent" message has been built/prepared/set (we should maybe unify the terminology there as well) means that we are expecting response (as per point 1. we do not track on state machine level whether that message has been sent, it's aries-vcx user's resposibility to deliver the message)
    5.
    1. Linearization of transitions: - each state machine transition method should either fail, or succeed and switch state deterministically.

Task backlog: 

• • Compile time protocol registry boundary
  • Apply state pattern for issuance, presentation state machines
  • Issuer with credx
  • Eliminate usage of MediatedConnection in tests (in favor of (non-mediated) Connection)
  • DDO as first class citizen
  • Create DID parser, DID type
  • Implement DID resolver https://github.com/hyperledger/aries-vcx/issues/706
  • Add more typing across codebase
    • use did type, use url type, and others
  • New protocols: DidExchange protocol, Presentation Protocol 2.0, Issuance Protocol 2.0
  • Aries mediator client (pick protocol V2)
