@michielbdejong I already have a store set up with triples (or quads if necessary) and I think I should be using UpdateManager.put() but it's not clear how
Maybe solid.community should look at taking on investors to fund the project instead of relying on donations of time, would it not be prudent to consider altrernitive options? Inrupt has investors to support its vision, why not solid.community?

Donors, not investors. Like public libraries, the brick and mortar kind.

@sideshowtom agreed that donors is prefered in some instances, but in this case, i think that maybe Inrupt could take over solid.community because they have the investors to support the vision. Also, as many are aware, I donated inrupt.community domain to inrupt @melvincarvalho why not consider doing the same?

@mikeadams1 That was good of you but we should move beyond Inrupt if possible.

No,no,no! Inrupt has taken the lead on this project and promised to bring solid.community over the line!

Solid is bigger than Inrupt. Hopefully.

I know there are a lot of differences of opinion between the solid community and intupt however, we need to move beyond all of that, and creat a safety net so that solid.community can get back online.

Its more about independence and motivation. I don't see the urgency. People knew their pods were experimental.

I think this shows the susceptibility of the service and servers model. It really doesn't get us away from centralisation. We can do better than this if we're ready to abandon servers. One of the great things about the Solid specification and philosophy, is that by putting the logic in the client you can do this. This is what creates the synergy with Safe Network, and why I was able to create a proof of concept demo that had a Solid app running on Safe Network. I'm hopeful people will begin to get behind this at some point!

Actually, it is not experimental, this was not an experiment, it is a prototype imlimintation of a solid server.

Before Solid on Safe takes shape (so to speak), we need a non profit organization to become a pod provider and provide promises about longevity and stability.

@ewingson promises to do his (maybe) little part of the process...

I think it makes sense to try to get funding from somewhere.
Maybe an existing organization would be interested
