We are a quite heterogeneous group from what I can tell. So I'm sure we all can learn a lot from each other.

It could also be the current version of the spec assumes too much Linked Data knowledge. Maybe that's one of the first things we could try to address (if needed)!? Willing to do a quick review and see if something assumes too much?

I'm myself still very much on the fence about data validation. Hydra currently only tells whether a property is required or not.

Just to clarify it, by "to generate client-side and server-side validation code" I didn't mean code generation in the classic sense but to be able to write a generic validator that knows how to interpret descriptions in order to validate specific properties etc.

I know, I was one of them :-) Let's see if we can come up with something we are equally (un)happy together.


Great to have you on board Ioseb.
