Newly created @w3c #WorkingGroup: "Linked Web Storage"!

The group's mission is to create #WebApps with loosely coupled data storage, #authentication, and access control by standardizing a #protocol between apps and identity/storage servers.
▶️ w3.org/groups/wg/lws/

The group will deliver the Linked Web Storage Protocol specification, based among other input on the the #Solid Protocol developed by the Solid #CommunityGroup

W3CLinked Web Storage Working GroupThe mission of the Linked Web Storage Working Group is to enable the development of web applications where data storage, entity authentication, access control, and application provider are all loosely coupled, as opposed to the web of today where these are typically all tightly coupled and changing one requires changing all, sometimes at the price of all past data. This will be achieved by identifying a set of relevant <a href="https://github.com/w3c/lws-ucs">use-cases</a>, and standardizing a <a href="https://github.com/w3c/lws-protocol">protocol</a> between applications, on the one hand, and identity and storage servers, on the other hand.
