Social Web Working Group Charter

Hello everybody,

I've tried to send this mail already in June but it wasn't forwarded to the
list because the WG wasn't set up yet. So, here is my second attempt to
reach out :-)

I'm the chair of the Hydra Community Group [1-2] and one of the
core-designers of JSON-LD [3-4]. After having read the charter, I think
there's quite a bit of overlap with what we are trying to do with Hydra. Due
to my work on JSON-LD I, personally, might also be able to help with the
development of a "transfer syntax for social data", especially considering
that ActivityStreams 2.0 is *more or less* based on JSON-LD.

I don't really have any concrete questions or proposals yet. I basically
just wanted to bring Hydra to your attention and let you know that I'm
willing to join the WG and help where I can. Of course, I would also like to
find out whether Hydra is of interest for this group.


Thanks,
Markus
