# Solid WebID Profile
This repository holds materials related to the proposed Solid WebID Profile specification.
## Overview
The [Solid WebID Profile specification](https://solid.github.io/webid-profile/) describes the discovery process and data model of a Solid Profile, representing a social agent's identity within various usage scenarios and application-specific preferences.
## Goals
The goals of this group are:
* to define a data model to express identities within a social, conceptual, and contextual relations in order enable socially-aware decentralised applications.
* to make recommendations and guidelines based on adequate implementation experience, as well as a framework for specialisation and extension of existing specifications.
## Background
* [Solid WebID Profiles](https://github.com/solid/solid-spec/blob/master/solid-webid-profiles.md)
* [Applications Discovery](https://github.com/solid/solid/blob/main/proposals/data-discovery.md)
* [Original Interop Issue](https://github.com/solid/data-interoperability-panel/issues/209)
* [WebID Draft Specification](https://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/webid/spec/identity/)
* [Universal Identity for the Web](https://csarven.ca/linked-research-decentralised-web#universal-identity-for-the-web)
