Define v2 context

[OR13]

What should be in it?

[OR13]

I think the v2 context should look like this to start:

{
  "@context": {
    "@version": 1.1,
    "@protected": true,

    "id": "@id",
    "type": "@type",
    "@vocab": "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials#"
  }
}

4.4. Define v2 context (issue vc-data-model#755)

See github issue vc-data-model#755.

Manu Sporny: +1 to keeping it open, it's relevant..

Kristina Yasuda: I think the previous WG didn't do this because it was a normative change.

Orie Steele: We definitely need to start a new version of the context file, so we can make changes to it..
… In favor of getting us capable of making changes to the context asap..

Kristina Yasuda: Is this the right issue to do that?.

Michael Prorock: +1 to new context file.

Orie Steele: I'm requesting we have a v2 context file. This issue asks the question if we have permission to do that..

Dave Longley: +1 to close the issue, we can now define a v2 context in this WG.

Ivan Herman: +1 to Manu, a v2 context will come up anyway.

Manu Sporny: Short answer is yes we can create a v2 context. We should close the issue since it's misleading what it's asking for. v2 context will happen naturally. If we need an issue for that, we should open a new issue dedicated to this..

See github issue vc-data-model#904.
