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 guess I coulda just make another branch of that repo, and eventually I'll probably do that. but I'm still getting the hang of github. 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. Eventually, I'll put it into a google shared doc for collaboration with whoever is interested.
