Still not published in npm until we test it. The code is in the [mashlib](https://github.com/SolisOS/mashlib) branch. It includes: - Latest rdflib, inrupt autenthication - Chat with message signature and Append by default for agentAuthenticated : this will implement private/public keys on your pod - NSS PATCH allow Append on new resource in a container - Updated integration CI to test with Node 16 and 18. #### Noel - Had issues unsubscribing from `public-solid@w3.org` email list, apparently I cannot unsubscribe without abandoning the group. - Tim: That looks like a bug, you should contact `sysreq@w3.org` to sort it out. - Have been thinking about making a website about [a local festivity in Catalonia](https://www.barcelona.cat/culturapopular/en/festivals-and-traditions/festival-characters-and-elements/vella-quaresma). It is not related with Solid, but I was thinking that I could model the data in RDF because this is the type of things that goverments should provide. But I'm not sure where to host it, at this point I'm thinking on hosting it with Github Pages but it won't be a full-fledged Solid POD, won't even do content negotiation. I already tested [something similar to this](https://github.com/NoelDeMartin/favorite-movies) a while ago. - Tim: It's fine if the data is not server on a SPARQL server, many governments just give the data in a single RDF format. - Noel: Ok, I guess I can always improve it later. #### Tim - Came back from San Francisco meeting with John Bruce (Inrupt CEO). Will try to find a recording of the video to share. - Has been thinking about editing HTML offline with RDF data and saving the changes, but the browser doesn't support it yet (unless you "save as" document). Maybe it could be done if instead of using the browser you run it on data kitchen. #### Rahul - Has been looking at the IRTF literature on centralization vs decentralization. Finds that concepts are underdefined. - Will post the links to some articles he's been reading. - https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3610381.3610386 - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mcfadden-consolidation-taxonomy/ #### Jon - Working on the documentation site for new developers. - Had a meeting with Chase to discuss ideas for the website, especially about helping developers as they learn to build apps with Solid. Specifically, helping developers who want to create a Solid App not just get the resources they need, but also not to get discouraged and keep going. - Working on the authentication to allow collaborative editing of the resources. - Making the website with the new version of Next.js, and it doesn't seem to work well with Solid authentication (server side vs client side issues). ### Technical topics #### Alain demo of new version of Mashlib - Screensharing showing the new version of mashlib using chat improvements. - Talk about installing [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) for npm versions management. --- This template is based on the [W3C meeting template](https://github.com/solid/specification/blob/main/meetings/template.md) [Code of conduct](https://github.com/solid/process/blob/main/code-of-conduct.md)
