Can you give an example of how this media type is used in the spec? Ideally, you could provide an example of the header+payload.

[Oliver Terbu]

@OR13 Haven't we agreed that we would use vc+sd-jwt to represent non-selective-disclosable SD-JWTs which are plain JWTs? Why is it still required to register this?

[Orie Steele]

@awoie I didn't agree to that... but regardless, you are walking into an easy argument if you are encouraging token confusion.

[Torsten Lodderstedt]

Let's discuss in the upcoming meeting.

Closing this issue since we agreed to use vc+sd-jwt.
