Description

Proposing that the panel undertakes a project to look at integration with the Data Transfer Project, per suggestion of @timbl.

It is not immediately apparent that this would merit any candidate proposals to the Solid Specification. However, there would seem to be considerable value in having comprehensive Solid integration with DTP. Some initial work has already been performed by DTP to support solid contacts with webid-tls authentication, but true integration would require a more concerted effort and a wider scope.

Research direction

Start by reading the Data Transfer Project and Solid Specification links, then review DTP's existing portability-data-transfer-solid work and its webid-tls authentication support. A useful outcome would require defining the broader integration scope and determining whether it produces candidate Solid Specification proposals.
