Re: monthly Solid phone conf

Hi all!

I’m an engineer and software architect by trade, with a bit of distributed networking and security background mixed in. I’m the CTO of Janeiro Digital, and we’re working closely together with inrupt on different ways to enrich the Solid ecosystem, from supporting open-source server implementations and developing frontend toolkits (i.e. https://github.com/inrupt-inc/solid-react-sdk), to looking at enterprise use scenarios.

I believe that Solid can be applied successfully to solve real-world problems, and am excited to work with the community at large to continue to grow the ecosystem and toolsets to realize that.

Good idea, in terms of introductions before the call!

I'm a software engineer in the field of distributed systems and decentralized identity, and I'm a former Solid Core team developer.
I worked on node-solid-server and rdflib.js, helped develop Solid's current authentication libraries, edited most of the existing Solid specs, and wrote the WebID-OIDC spec<https://github.com/solid/webid-oidc-spec>. I'm still actively involved with the Solid open source ecosystem, as time permits.

As part of the Digital Bazaar team, I'm currently active in the decentralized identity community -- I'm part of the W3C Verifiable Claims Working Group, the Credentials Community Group, and the WebAuthentication Working Group. And I work on DID resolution libraries for decentralized ledgers.

My biggest goal, in terms of the Solid community group, is to encourage Solid to join the wider Fediverse and various decentralized communities -- I want all of these platforms to inter-operate! :)

Cool !
Following suit then : I co-founded Startin'blox<https://startinblox.com/>, an open source web framework based on the "SoLiD standards", intended to make the building of decentralized app a breeze.

I am interested in sharing good practice, pushing the specifications forward and eventually hire passionate people to work with us.

I will send out an invite for the first meeting.

Great!  The first meeting is normally introductions, so I'll add a quick one from me, to save time.

Ive worked on various parts of the solid project since the start, and use solid on a daily basis.

I help to maintain solid.community and have a goal to make it a community, and self sustaining project.  As well as adding new features like ability to CNAME from your own domain to a pod subdomain.

My other interest is in payments, and with my pet project, solidpay, I'm hoping to explore the intersection of solid and electronic payments (blockchain, lightning network, fiat currencies).

Here is list of use cases I'm currently looking at trying to implement :

Looking forward to meeting new people!


Thanks,

Ruben
