  "specification": "https://w3c-ccg.github.io/did-spec/",
  // These fields are optional

  "verifiableDataRegistry": "DID Specification"
}

Your Pull Request will be automatically validated, please ensure that all of the automated tests pass (no errors reported) or your submission will not be reviewed. Common reasons for failed validation includes invalidly formatted JSON files and missing mandatory fields.

• The DID Method specification contains a Security Considerations section.
• The DID Method specification contains a Privacy Considerations section.
• The JSON file I am submitting has passed all automated validation tests below.
• The JSON file contains a contactEmail address [OPTIONAL].
• The JSON file contains a verifiableDataRegistry entry [OPTIONAL].

I used a translator to get an English version of the spec, and my comments are based on the accuracy of the translation.

The spec states that the DID is did:cuil:<cuil>, where the <cuil> is the government-issued CUIL of the person. The spec also states that the "CUIL is not in the DID Doc", but if the CUIL is in the DID, it is in the DIDDoc. I'm guessing the intention is that the DID method-specific part of the DID (<cuil>) is not supposed to be the CUIL itself, but some sort of derived value. However, that is not what the translation of the spec says.

Clarification is required -- or an update to the Security and Privacy to say that the CUIL is in the DID Doc.
