Articles and documents associated with designing and implementing identity technology using self-sovereign identity principles

I copied this from my fork of /WebOfTrustInfo/self-sovereign-identity

This is just a temporary workspace. I'm going to use these materials to create the beginnings of a collaborative article on the Evolution of Self Sovereign Identity; to highlight the best thought on the matter since 2016, and highlight a few needs as I see them. Once I've exhausted my interpretation, I'll put it into a google shared doc for collaboration with whoever is interested.
