This repo has moved here: https://w3c.github.io/did-spec-registries/#did-methods

We need to archive this repo ASAP and direct people to move issues / PRs there... and not open PRs here.

Can I archive this repo?

The DID Core Registries are the place for coordinating interop around extension properties and parameters. In the interests of having one place to look for stuff, the DID Method Registry should be part of that as well.

The CCG will need to pass a formal resolution to do this, I think.

"add note to did method registry process about versioning method specs in a way that bubbles up to the registry"

Relevant context:
Kim: Uport, might be useful to mark this one as deprecated, since people may be working with it
Joe Andrieu: +1 To retaining uport as "deprecated"
Jonathan Holt: Version control issues; machine readable
Joe Andrieu: +1 To add version to registry
... For version control, implement a better syntax around changes and whether it has been deprecated
Manu Sporny: Specification should have version in the title
... JSON-LD can support the other request, this is a respec feature
... This requires work by the people writing the specifications, not everyone does that
Drummond Reed: +1 To adding that note to the registry instructions. ✪

The did:ion entry links to some code and documentation, but not a method spec: https://github.com/decentralized-identity/ion

The Blockstack DID format is not listed in the registry, but it exists and has been supported in production for some time.
