Description
It is best if this WG has, upfront, a Prime Directive/North Star to guide the group's proposals, discussions, and decision making.
My proposal is something like:
> #Chickens, #Eggs, and #Roosters: A #NorthStar for the Global Decentralized Systems Community (#GDSC)
> Byline: #meggDLs, #Seleggtive #Disclosure, #DEGGCOMM, and #Eggports
> The entire digital identity ecosystem is missing out on the #BigOpportunity by not focusing on the right catalyst for the #massiveadoption of #digitalcredentials.
> Morphing the chicken and egg mental model: If Hens are the Issuers, Roosters the Verifiers, and Eggs are the digital credentials, the prime objective needs to be increasing the demand for and consumption of Eggs by Holders ...creating hundreds of thousands of ways that drive more Holders to consume more Eggs.
> … are great examples of driving the demand for and consumption of more and more digital credentials [and DIDs] (eggs); and secondarily, the demand for hens and roosters (Issuers and Verifiers). The demand for eggs drives the production of hens; and in turn, the demand for roosters. Don’t mess with #MotherNature

Research direction
Start by reading the proposed Prime Directive in issue #13 and the linked DID-method clusters reference, then review the six-comment discussion for any decision or requested revision. Done means the working group has agreed on a concrete North Star and adopted or documented it in an identified project location; no file or test is named in the issue.
