Danube Tech supports the RCH WG #31

This is very important work, since it is required for DIDs and Verifiable Credentials, where digital signatures and other proofs over RDF datasets are used for creating/resolving/updating/deactivating DIDs, and for issuing and verifying Verifiable Credentials.

But this is also more than just a necessity for DIDs and VCs. It's really a new and fundamental building block for any kind of Linked Data based application, since it makes it possible to attach digital proofs to RDF graphs containing any type of data. This adds a new security and trust layer to the web itself.
