HTTP Signature CG report

Hot on the heels of Evan's and a's announcement of the Webfinger CG report
last week, I'm pleased to say that nightpool and I will be editing a
similar CG report on HTTP Signatures in the fediverse.

I have one ask for the group: do any of you know of a good example or two
of a successful W3C CG report? I'm still ramping up on exactly what these
are and how they fit into the broader standards ecosystem. Good past
examples would be welcome!

Right now, as with the webfinger report, the goal here is to collect
information on current use of HTTP Sigs with AP, give directions for
implementers to get started with best practices, and point towards future
work that can be done.

We've started collecting candidate requirements in
https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-webfinger/issues . Feel free to
comment or add your own proposals!
