It would save one extra request to the pod to ask for RDF and ask for HTML - Use-case: Twitter, Gitter already use this in their interfaces #### Solid Content Manager - Jeff showcased usage of the [Solid UI Components](https://github.com/jeff-zucker/solid-ui-components) and [Solid Content Manager](https://github.com/jeff-zucker/solid-content-manager) libraries. #### MDR Tools - Maurits showcased his app [MDR Tools](https://mdr-tools.com) ([Source](https://github.com/mauritsderoover/MdrNotes)) ---- 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)
