Dear Semantic Web / Linked Data people (with my apologies for cross-posting), the creation of a new Working Group is currently being submitted to W3C, on the topic of Linked Data Signatures. The charter proposal is available here: https://w3c.github.io/lds-wg-charter/ and any feedback is welcome: you can submit issues on the corresponding github repository [1]. This charter proposal heavily relies on previous work by the Credentials Community Group (CCG) [2], but its scope is broader than "just" Verifiable Credentials. In a nutshell, the goal is to provide a standard way to canonicalize, hash and sign RDF graphs and datasets, independently of any specific serialization. Another deliverable of this WG is a vocabulary for describing, in RDF, such signatures or other kinds of cryptographic proofs. If you think there is value in this, and furthermore if you intend to participate in this WG, please express your support to its creation: * by creating an issue [1] with the label "expression_of_support" (following one of the examples already there [3]) * if your organization is a member, by encouraging your AC-Rep to respond to the corresponding thread on ac-forum [4] thanks in advance, pa [1] https://github.com/w3c/lds-wg-charter/issues [2] https://www.w3.org/community/credentials/ [3] https://github.com/w3c/lds-wg-charter/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Aexpression_of_support [4] https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-ac-forum/2021AprJun/0131.html
