DASL — Data-Addressed Structures & Links
A small set of simple, standard primitives to work on content-addressed data.

DASL: MASL — Metadata for Arbitrary Structures & Links
MASL is a CBOR-based metadata system that is designed to work well with content-addressed and decentralised systems, to enable fully self-contained, self-certified content distribution.

DASL: RASL — Retrieval of Arbitrary Structures & Links
RASL is a URL scheme used to identify content-addressed DASL resources along with a simple HTTP-based retrieval method.

DASL: DRISL — Deterministic Representation for Interoperable Structures & Links
DRISL is a serialization format that is deterministic (so that the same data will have the same CID) and that features native support for using CIDs as links. It is based on CBOR, using a narrow profile of CBOR's "Core" featureset called "[[cborc-42]]", specified formally in this IETF document.

DASL: Content-Addressable aRchives (CAR)
The CAR format offers a serialized representation of set of content-addressed resources in one single concatenated stream, alongside a header that describes that content.

DASL: ATFISL — Content Discovery with the AT Protocol
ATFISL is a content discovery system for CIDs built with the AT Protocol. Publishers announce download locations for CIDs by publishing records to their AT Protocol repositories. Indexers aggregate these records into a lookup table from CIDs to live locations. ATFISL is complemented by FISL which defines an HTTP query API for ATFISL records.

DASL: Governance of the DASL Project
The goal of the DASL Project is to develop content-addressing primitives and the technologies that build on them, with a view towards enabling unbundled software and protocol architectures that best align with and promote democratic systems.

LinkML – Bring structure to your data.
An open framework that simplifies authoring, validating, and sharing data — providing an accessible platform for interdisciplinary collaboration and a reliable way to define and share data semantics.

DASL: FISL — Finding Internet Structures & Links
FISL is an HTTP lookup API that maps CIDs to locations, so that a client with a CID can find out where to retrieve it from and who announced it. A client sends a CID, and the index returns the URLs where content can be retrieved, along with the identity of the publisher when known. FISL specifies only the query interface, so it works with any indexing system that supplies location records.

DASL: Tiles Protocol: Data Passing
Passsing data to and from tiles is key to integrating tiles in arbitrary environments. This protocol specifies precisely that.

Just Enough Governance: Introducing Steward Governance for DASL
When we started working on DASL, it was little more than an experiment. We talked to as many people as we could who had been interested in content addressing but couldn't make it work for their needs. The result was radically focused on interoperability and adoption, on a mission
