The Linked Web Storage Working Group published a First Public Working Draft of Linked Web Storage Protocol 1.0. This specification aims to provide applications with secure and permissioned access to externally stored data in an interoperable way.

The mission of the Linked Web Storage WG is to enable the development of web applications where data storage, entity authentication, access control, and application provider are all loosely coupled.
