Revocation based on anoncreds 1.0 has been merged into master and will be in the next release.
Because it uses tails files, use case support will be limited - just where the tails file is very small (e.g. 25k credentials)
Currently testing with mobile agents to give feedback on process, tweaking the API to provide controller control over the process.

Mediator Repo Strategy - Sam
Mediators are a specific type of cloud agent
Example mediator in LibVCX code contributed by ABSA (could be extracted and stand alone)
Documentation (Readme files) should note that a mediator is not always functionally required.
verbose option: Mediators and Relays RFC
terse option: a paragraph or two. Copied to each repo, or as an anchored link in the above RFC?
aries-mediator-[language]? languages ready: go, dotnet, rust (absa)
binary & docker image that wraps an existing framework? (e.g., aries-mediator-go as an instance of aries-framework-go)
