Been having some interesting chats with Kingsley, and one route that he has suggested to get to our goal of a modern webid set of specs would be to drop Turtle=MUST I personally see this as something that would be hard to gain consensus on because: 1. The spec is already in use 2. Solid is at least loosely based on this work 3. Dropping MUST means that there is no guaranteed interop, potentially degrading the UX in some systems 4. Timbl might not be in favour of such a change I could be completely wrong on any or all of these things, but I thought I'd ask the group, so that we spend our time on the things with best chance of proceeding If we can rule this path out then I think we have a relatively easy task of defining a webid, writing examples and tests, then have multiple profiles based on that shared understanding, of which WebID ED 2015, can be one In short, I think we're 90% of the way home after defining the key webid terms in a stable place Just wondering what folks think on this path, if removing turtle=MUST it's a non-starter, it would be good to establish early. And that gives us better clarity to get the modernized definitions and spec over the line, modulo a few compromises.
