Four things happened since the August refresh that the wiki either contradicted or did not know about: the Dogwood coordinated release (2026-08-30, tag-only, re-cut as Dogwood-R1 two days later) and the first Eucalyptus RC (2026-09-17); the DTG Core Credentials spec tagging Working Draft 02 (2026-09-07) with its main branch already heading for 0.4.0; the sysop "deploy" stream the wiki had called "coming soon" shipping as three open-source VTA Farm repos; and data rooms landing in the VTI as a third kind of node. WD02 is the disruptive one: it deletes the four-way DID taxonomy the concept pages were built on and adds two credential types, so the pages described a spec that no longer exists. Spec-driven changes (WD02 and the post-WD02 main branch): - New `concepts/correlation-scope.md` — the holder-declared pairwise / directed / public width that replaces the DID types. `did-types.md` is rewritten as a retired/history page explaining why the taxonomy went and pointing at its replacement. - New `concepts/delegation-credential.md` (VDC, third edge type) and `concepts/authority-credential.md` (VAC, attenuable permission chains). - New `concepts/statement-credential.md` (VSC) for the main-branch folding of endorsement and witness into predicate profiles; clearly marked as not yet tagged or implemented anywhere. - `membership-credential.md`: the grant + consent-carrying acknowledgement pair is now fully specified and implemented. - `witness-credential.md`, `credential-categories.md`, `dtg-credentials-overview.md` and the other credential pages moved to `digestMultibase` and the WD02 category layout. - `entities/dtg-credential-spec.md` rewritten for WD02 with the PR-by-PR history; `entities/dtg-credentials.md` covers the eight breaking releases (0.2.0 → 0.9.1) that tracked it. New pages for sources not previously covered: - `entities/vtafarm.md`, `entities/vtafarm-api.md`, `entities/vtafarm-k8s.md` — the portal, the Go/Kubernetes provisioning backend and the OpenTofu cluster on Hetzner, with the namespace-per-user / Vault-sealed-seed security model. - `concepts/data-rooms.md` — credential-governed, MLS-encrypted shared spaces with their own DIDs and no member list. - `concepts/post-quantum-cryptography.md` — ML-DSA keys in the VTA, hybrid multi-proof credentials from the VTC, and the PQ path in the TSP implementation, with the VID model noted as not yet PQ-aware. - `concepts/peer-identity-vetting.md` — early, marked as such. Entity and concept activity refreshed through mid-September: `coordinated-releases.md` gains the Dogwood / Dogwood-R1 / Eucalyptus RC-1 version matrix; `trust-spanning-protocol.md` covers the Rev 3 flag day and the five-implementation conformance suite; `verifiable-trust-infrastructure.md`, `verifiable-trust-agent.md`, `affinidi-tdk.md`, `affinidi-webvh-service.md`, `didwebvh-rs.md`, `openvtc.md`, `vta-browser-plugin.md`, `vti-didcomm-js.md`, `rp-sdk-js.md` and `verifiable-git-infrastructure.md` pick up the security sweep, the wallet console and persona map, and the `Signed-by-DID:` trailer. `vti-setup.md` follows the explore stream to `VTI-Dogwood` and the newly verified bootstrap script. Two things a reviewer should notice: the `dtg-credentials` digest- encoding divergence recorded as unresolved last cycle is now closed (the crate and the spec converged on multibase), and the per-repo version matrix flags several components whose main branch is ahead of any tag — those are recorded as "not yet tagged", not as releases. `overview.md`, `index.md` (ten new pages) and `log.md` updated to match.
