Re: Observations on WebID definition and specification

Hi Kingsley,

Insofar as I can understand (but I hope someone will jump in and say otherwise), nobody is really representing Solid right now in any official or unofficial capacity. We do have people that are *also* involved in Solid but I do not believe they speak in any other capacity than their own.

> I say that because Solid itself already supports both JSON-LD and Turtle.

Indeed, that’s part of how we came to the MUST on Turtle and JSON-LD for publishers. All existing WebID providers support that, Solid included.

Still, going back to Martynas point, I think a good case can be made for dropping all requirements on media types if acknowledging and addressing comments like those I referred to in my previous message. I am going to focus on PRs required to get to #37 but if anyone (Martynas?) can make a good case for it, maybe within a dedicated issue on GitHub, and manage to gather a larger consensus than the MUST on Turtle and JSON-LD has accrued, I would love to update #37 accordingly and move in that direction.

Best,
Jacopo.
