The JSON-LD Working Group has published three Proposed Recommendations and a Working Group Note:

• JSON-LD 1.1 defines a JSON-based expression of Linked Data graphs. The syntax is designed to easily integrate into deployed systems that already use JSON, and provides a smooth upgrade path from JSON to JSON-LD. It enables the creation of more easily interoperable Web services, the ability to store Linked Data in JSON-based storage engines, and brings more meaningful data to Web services and APIs.
• JSON-LD 1.1 Processing Algorithms and API defines an Application Programming Interface (API) for developers implementing a set of algorithms for programmatic transformations of JSON-LD documents.
• JSON-LD 1.1 Framing allows developers to query a JSON-LD document’s contained graph, by example, and reshape output into a specific JSON tree layout.
• Streaming JSON-LD discusses the processing of JSON-LD in a streaming manner. Concretely, a set of guidelines is introduced for efficiently serializing and deserializing JSON-LD in a streaming way. These guidelines are encapsulated in a JSON-LD streaming document form, and a streaming RDF form. These forms, when they are detected, allow implementations to apply streaming optimizations.

Comments on the Proposed Recommendations are welcome through 18 June 2020.

The Web Applications Working Group has published a First Public Working Draft of Image Resource. This document defines the concept of an “image resource” and a corresponding WebIDL ImageResource dictionary. Web APIs can use the ImageResource dictionary to represent an image resource in contexts where an HTMLImageElement is not suitable or available (e.g., in a Worker).
