bengo supports the W3C RCH WG #38

Open gobengo opened 3 years ago

gobengo commented 3 years ago

Linked Data Signatures is mentioned twice in the W3C TR for ActivityPub, and (AFAICT) is required for message integrity when ActivityPub messages are passed around using channels other than HTTPS (where HTTP Signatures could be used). Unfortunately, these mentions of "Linked Data Signatures" are not very easy to implement, considering there is no link/footnote to a TR for them.

This, of course, is only an example of a single TR that makes use of linked data. For the same benefits of message integrity in any other use case besides 'social', Linked Data Signatures (et al) deserves standardization and a WG.

Thanks @gobengo.

Do you think it would be possible to add your use case to the current list? At this point the more the merrier :-)

Dear @gobengo, 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

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