Inrupt supports the W3C RCH WG

[csarven]

Inrupt would like to express support for the creation of a W3C Linked Data Signatures Working Group.

For Linked Data applications in which users share information with others, it is critical to build on a strong foundation of trust and security. In addition, by formalizing these mechanisms in the context of a W3C Working Group, it becomes much more possible to achieve widespread interoperability.

The deliverables of the LDS WG are of interest to Inrupt's work, for example, on consent, VC-related tooling, as well as other areas in the Solid project. Inrupt is also looking into joining the LDS WG to contribute to the progression of the specifications.

Dear @csarven,
the proposed charter has been substantially changed since you submitted your expression of support. More specifically, its scoped has been narrowed down, to address some concerns raised in the Semantic Web community. See also Ivan Herman's explanation of those changes on the SebWeb mailing list.

We kindly ask you to review the new version, and either

• renew your expression of interest (by a simple reply to this thread), or
• to close this issue if you do not wish to renew it.

Thanks in advance

[csarven]

Inrupt has reviewed the updated charter and continues to support it.

For the sake of clarity, editing the title to match the new name of the WG...
