Research direction
Start with the issue text and the referenced discussions with @niko-ng at the Solid Symposium, including the mention of NextGraph’s similar solution. Review the expected specification document and example implementations; the work is done when the E2EE specification item, examples, responsible contributor, capacity, and support needs are identified.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
This issue proposes a new specification work item on end to end encryption. The features of this specification should provide a way for client applications to encrypt documents, and share secrets with one another so that user/client application pairs can decrypt documents iff they have access to read a document.
This specification item is being raised following discussions with @niko-ng at the Solid Symposium -- as NextGraph implements a similar solution. @niko-ng you indicated that you have someone who can drive the development of a specification document and example implementations. Could you please identify who that is, their capacity, and whether any support is required for them to deliver a specification item.
