| 54 | + |
| 55 | +* |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +## Actions Review |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +* eP ✅✅ to follow up in mailing list |
| 62 | +* JW to share first draft of `diff LWS Solid` Note |
| 63 | +* JW to share notes on Fediverse with everyone |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +## Topics |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +### W3C Breakouts Day 2026 (2 min) |
| 69 | +https://github.com/w3c/breakouts-day-2026 |
| 70 | +* eP: I recall Jesse suggested that ODI could organize something |
| 71 | +* JW: Not being involved there, no new for my side. |
| 72 | +* ... Propose a list of shared topics, could include logging system or usage of activity streams, just to get those groups to work together. |
| 73 | +* eP: Is there someone here now who can commit to organise someting? I believe we need someone to take responsiblity to coordinate something in order to make it happen. |
| 74 | +* JW: That would invovle to send an email to the chairs of that CG. |
| 75 | +* eP: I do not have bandwith for that - maybe Theo is interested? If not, we just move on and accept that we do not have capacity right now. |
| 76 | +* JW: We are also getting a Community Manager in in the next weeks, so they could help. |
| 77 | +* eP: Lets do an action for that then. |
| 78 | +* CB: We can also focus energy on the gruop and don't overstretch. If we don't do it this year we can still do it in the future. |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +### Poll for new CG weekly call (5 min) |
| 81 | +https://app.rallly.co/invite/IWNpZiVCsFZd |
| 82 | +* eP: *sharing screen* |
| 83 | +* ... our current slot has 13 Persons - the alternative being Friday but there are many "only if needed" there. |
| 84 | +* CB: I agree. I would propose to keep it for now. It is good to have that overview, so we know our time slot is not "the worst". |
| 85 | +* ... and we should keep this in mind to check on the community regularly |
| 86 | +* eP: Let's keep it this way, and be open to switching for a particular meeting. |
| 87 | +* CB: There would also be the option to have alternating times to accomodating different time zones (e.g. one week good for asia-pacific, one for EU, ...) |
| 88 | +* eP: Will send an email. |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +### CG workspace setup (3 min) |
| 91 | +* eP: |
| 92 | + * https://solidproject.org/TR |
| 93 | + * http://ujg.specs.openuji.org/ |
| 94 | + * https://speculator.openuji.dev/ |
| 95 | + * https://speculator-demo.vercel.app/ |
| 96 | + * https://speculator-demo.vercel.app/vocab/ns/ |
| 97 | +* ... A short lightning talk, also considering the 2026 bundle. |
| 98 | +* ... The technical reports page is not optimized for mobile. |
| 99 | +* ... there is "speculator", which is a tool compatible with Re-Spec. |
| 100 | +* ... what is impressing me that whenever I open an issue, they basically have a PR ready the next day. |
| 101 | +* ... They seem very responsive to feature requests, e.g. for C4 diagrams. |
| 102 | +* ... Comparing their website to Solid TR, it looks more modern. |
| 103 | +* ... There is also search across different specs - there is package for this. |
| 104 | +* ... There is also a package to render vocabularies. |
| 105 | +* ... Very responsive devs, it looks very presentable. |
| 106 | +* ... We might want to look into this. |
| 107 | +* ... What do people think? |
| 108 | +* LD: It does look nice. But I'd like to know more about performance (bundle size etc) and accessiblity for users. |
| 109 | +* eP: Given that it uses Astro, I believe everything is server-rendered. |
| 110 | +* ... it is something to investigate. Most importantly, we could rely on them, just having a wishlist and then they gift it to us like Santa. |
| 111 | +* ... I'd encourage everone to look into this. |
| 112 | +* th: The quick response time is due to AI, no? |
| 113 | +* eP: I am pretty sure that the use AI, but the code works. I did not review the code. What is your concern? Maintainability? |
| 114 | +* th: Yes, a friend vibe-coded a good app until it broke, and he could not fix it. |
| 115 | +* eP: Well, with good tests this should not be a problem, but we should look into the code a little bit. |
| 116 | +* ...: I would not demonise AI too much here |
| 117 | +* CB: Will it be maintained over time? I'd be rather cautious to to rely on something by somebody who vanshies in 6 months or a year. |
| 118 | +* SC (from Jitsi chat): |
| 119 | + >I'd love ot understand why https://solidproject.org/TR/ is being trashed when the complainers or people that find it inefficient haven't made effort to improve it or even raised an issue on a particular need. The whole discussion seems like a yet another effort to chase something without seemingly understanding the background or decisions behind https://solidproject.org/TR/ itself. And again, this just seems more of the lets trash / dismiss existing stuff without any real purpose. Happy to give a backgrounder. |
