[NOTE] | ||
==== | ||
TO DO (link:https://github.com/creator-assertions/identity-assertion/issues/161[Issue #161]): Provide definitions for [line-through]##_identity assertion generator_## and _identity assertion provider._ | ||
|
||
These terms are used throughout this section and should be added to the glossary. Preliminary definitions: | ||
|
||
* [line-through]#_identity assertion generator:_ akin to the claim generator: what's the software that's producing the identity assertion itself# *DONE* | ||
* _identity provider:_ the actor that is attesting to the identity of the named actor. As stated elsewhere, this might be the identity assertion generator or it might be a third party. | ||
