==== Overview ====
* An issuing organization or individual makes a badge or series of badges available on their website and prompts their community to earn them. The earner sends the badge to their Backpack.
** The badge becomes portable this through the [https://github.com/mozilla/openbadges/wiki/Issuer-API Issuer API] which provides script to present the earner with a modal dialog that requests their consent to add the issuer's badge(s) to their Backpack.** Issuer can also push badges to the [https://github.com/mozilla/openbadges/wiki/Badge-Baking Mozilla Baking Service] where the assertion URL representing JSON blobs is embedded into PNG files
** n.b. This is only necessary if the issuer wants the earner to have the ability to store badges outside of the OBI. Otherwise badge baking is handled through the [https://github.com/mozilla/openbadges/wiki/Issuer-API Issuer API].
* Displayers pull unpacked badges (JSON) out of the Backpack based on earner action and privacy settings.
