GitLab migration (Mike and Steve G)
Demo in the Identity Implementers call?
Issues with Jenkins machines because Rust builds run out of memory—workaround increased build time but is a temporary solution
Advanced Schemas and W3C creds (Ken)
Can successfully write and retrieve the Context object from the node code. Will track through all layers up to Aries.
Once unit tests work, will commit back either to Master or in a Branch.
5 additional objects need to be added.
Warnings from rust cargo clippy (Mike)
IS-1270 through IS-1274
New design for revocation / Anoncreds 2.0 (Mike)
