[WORK ITEM PROPOSAL] HTTP Authentication Using Schnorr Signatures

Hi everyone,

Following today's announcements, I'd like to formally propose
http-schnorr-auth as a CG work item.

1. Title: HTTP Authentication Using Schnorr Signatures

2. Summary: A method for authenticating HTTP requests using Schnorr
signatures, enabling decentralized authentication with Nostr/Bitcoin keys.

3. Nostr Connection: Based on NIP-98, uses kind 27235 events with the same
serialization and signing as all Nostr events.

4. Web Standards Alignment:
- Builds on RFC 7235 (HTTP Authentication)
- Integrates with did:nostr (W3C registered DID method)
- WebID profile integration
- Potential alignment with Solid authentication (LWS WG)

5. Output Format: W3C Community Group Report

6. Contributors:
- Melvin Carvalho (editor)
- [looking for additional contributors]

7. Collaboration:
- Repo: https://github.com/nostrcg/http-schnorr-auth
- Spec: https://nostrcg.github.io/http-schnorr-auth/
- Version: 0.0.1

8. Additional Context:
- Reference implementations exist (JSS, Podkey)
- Complements the did:nostr work item
- Battle-tested in Nostr ecosystem via NIP-98

Looking for feedback and additional contributors.

Best,
Melvin
