IETF/W3C Standards Track

EEP's standards strategy is dual-track: IETF for protocol wire semantics and W3C profile alignment for DID/VC identity primitives.

IETF focus

• Internet-Draft split: core protocol, gates/commerce, security profile
• Public review + interop evidence before WG adoption push
• Target: Proposed Standard + operational BCP companion

W3C focus

• DID profile for entities/agents in EEP flows
• VC profile for delegation and gate credentials
• Conformance vectors aligned with W3C style test suites
