• Aries Protocol Test Suite
  • Issue, credential, and proof tests are merged.
• Aries Shared:
  • indy-vdr (Andrew Whitehead) https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-vdr
    • Remaining work: Design doc, FFI, testing, CI / CD
    • As an Aries interface becomes standardized, will add that API layer
    • HTTP Proxy App updates
      • ACAPy using it as a proxy in a branch
    • Integrating into LibIndy in a separate branch, goal is to release in April/May
    • Rich Schemas functions are coming soon
  • indy-credx and aries-credx
    • https://github.com/sovrin-foundation/aries-credx-framework-rs
      • Generic APIs that are pluggable
      • Test vectors for interop
      • Coming soon: Rich Schemas functions
    • https://github.com/andrewwhitehead/indy-credx
      • Improved revocation (Annoncreds 1) support (faster tails generation)
      • Python wrapper using Pyo3 is solid. Needs FFI.
  • Aries-Shared-Util

  • Aries-KMS
    • Mike Lodder working on documentation and architecture as an Aries RFC (KMS architecture) and Ursa RFC (API)

• Aries-CloudAgent-Python (bc.gov)
  • Release 0.4.5 is on PyPi.
  • Revocation support has merged into master and is likely to included in the next release. Some smoothing of the edges happening.
    • Note: uses anoncreds 1.0 (hence, tails files) and so will be constrained in use cases to those with small numbers of credentials (e.g. ~25k per RevReg.)
• Aries-Framework-Go (Troy) #aries-go
  • Enable common JavaScript API for both WASM and REST controller APIs.
  • Verifiable Credential controller APIs (validation and storage).
  • Preparing 0.1.2 release

    • includes key exchange methods
    (can replace libsodium)
    • , to replace libsodium
