Public version of MDL spec and rights

[ryanbnl]

Will a copy of the MDL spec be included in the ARF? It is currently behind a paywall.
The specification for OIDC (and sub-variants) are available without a paywall.

I also miss analysis of rights: what is the situation regards patent rights / other encumbrances wrt the core technology choices?

Dear ryanbnl,

Thank you for bringing up your concerns regarding the availability of the mDL specification in the ARF and your question about patent rights and other encumbrances.

Regarding the mDL specification, we currently do not intend to duplicate the ISO standard specifications for mDL in the ARF. However, where we may create a profile of the standard specifications, we would include that in the ARF. Thank you again for your feedback and contribution to our project.

Best regards, European Digital Identity Framework Team
