The WG should ensure that the Solid Protocol is designed according best practices when it comes to Building Protocols with HTTP. An explicit liaison with the HTTP WG at IETF should therefore be mentioned in the charter.

From https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-new-work/2023Oct/0007.html

  • The Solid Protocol has a copy-paste of parts of HTTP specifications, with
    modifications. Compare some of the normative statements in
    https://solidproject.org/TR/protocol with those in
    https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9110. This is a bad practice
    (monkeypatching more established technical work elsewhere) that is actively
    discouraged by the IETF (see Section 2 of
    https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9205) and we’d like to see this
    fixed before uplifting this kind of proposal from a CG to the scope of a
    WG. If the intent is to use HTTP, then establishing the IETF HTTP working
    group as a liaison is appropriate given this context.
