Hey Github!
Proposition: To integrate IMS OpenBadges V3.0 into GitHub profile badges!
What's the use case:
Organization managers could issue those to developers through any system or implementation and as long as they are compliant with OB3 then Github can add them to profile badges as a feature for developers!
Developers can add claimed badges (certificates, degrees, accreditations,...) to their Github profiles! Those are self-verifiable!
Nice to have extensions:
1- Being accessible as a sharing intent (clicking a button or link developer can add the badge to their Github profile if they are logged in on the same browser)
Rationale: by making profile badges open to achievement standard badges, it will enhance the developer experience as well as create much traction by making it easier for HRs, employers, and talent finders to check and review verifiable achievements and accomplishments of a developer aside from GitHub only achievements!
2- To have a Verifiable Credential presentation simple view that displays the standard document model and data of that badge without the need to leave Github!
