Justin Bingham of Inrupt and admin of Solid forum recently posted some info on the draft specification for Solid Application Interoperability.

As I understand, seamless interoperability and data portability is one of the key advantages/promises of Solid. However, I have the impression that the effort put into making it a reality is not proportional to it’s importance.

Hi @ludwigschubi - there’s actually considerable effort put forth in this area. I’d encourage you to look over the work underway in the data interoperability panel , in particular the draft specification on application interoperability .

We recently did some live presentations that were recorded (note that each are 90 minutes long - but they cover the vast majority of the draft spec):

• Application Interoperability Walkthrough - Part 1
• Application Interoperability Walkthrough - Part 2

If this is a topic you’re interested in - you’d be most welcome at the weekly panel session .

They represent Solid’s perspective on interoperability. Summarising from problems & goals for this specification:

1 - Seamless data interoperability across disparate applications
2- Use intuitive data boundaries to provide human to machine interoperability
3 - Secure collaboration over intuitive data boundaries
4 - Standard and flexible organizing model for data
5 - Flexibility and support for different and evolving query mechanisms
6 - Optimize and extend, but do not change Solid fundamentals
