## Topics

### Round Table

#### Jon

- Has been making progress on the [getting started page](https://github.com/solid-contrib/getting-started) (onboarding for developers). Has an MVP ready with a growing list of resources. Using [diataxis](https://diataxis.fr/) methodology.

#### Angelo

- Started working on Solid Data Modules for address books: https://github.com/solid-contrib/data-modules
- Issue with the Shacl-Shape: https://github.com/solid/contacts/pull/3

#### Noel

- I've updated to CSS 7.0 and had to rewrite all my implementation because the [JSON API](https://communitysolidserver.github.io/CommunitySolidServer/latest/usage/account/json-api/) completely changed. It also seems a lot more complicated than it should, but they must have their reasons.
    - Alain: Probably because they changed something about the identity provider.
    - Angelo: You can have one identity and multiple pods.
    
- Also, continued rewriting [Ramen](https://ramen.noeldemartin.com) using [Aerogel](https://aerogel.js.org), a very simple app to test interoperability between pods, just looks at typeindex and containers.
- Jon: What's the difference between a Resources, a Container, a Thing, and a Solid Dataset?
    - Noel: Containers and resources are part of the spec, Things and Solid Dataset I'm not so sure.
    - Angelo: we should just distinguish between information resources and non-information resources (an information resource is the RDF representation, and the non-information resource is the real thing in the physical world that cannot be tranferred through HTTP).

- Noel: Sharon told me about this course: [Linked Data Engineering](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoOmvuyo5UAfY6jb46jCpMoqb-dbVewxg)
    - Angelo: This is the part about fragment identifiers: [1.6 How to name Things URIs](https://youtu.be/z9NxpKMiLBw?t=936&si=Vj_FVa8JuKTd6620)

#### Rahul
- was at  meeting (ietf?) in Prague, presented notificatioin spec
- met with http ppl who want to thoroughly review solid spec to make sure it is line with http
- thanks to tim for helping to get funding for this work

#### Alain
- worked on immigration, nss to css
- added a new admin to make workload easier
- doing integration tests on test server
- continued work on Patch not working with append, found issue in nss related to this, made fix and it's not breaking tests; now able to create a new "day"(?) in the chat
- for next week, plan to update issues so we can discuss

### Technical topics

#### Meeting Time

Meeting time recently changed, and we've been discussing if we should move it back to the time we had before. Maybe it has some overlap with other meetings? Will ask on the chat.

From the present attendees, it would be fine to move it one hour later for Noel, Jon, Angelo, and Alain; but it wouldn't be great for Rahul.
