Are there any projects that are using Solid to enable coordination across local government agencies? I’m mostly thinking about city governments and slightly larger municipalities like Los Angeles county. Before the pandemic I used to use the announcement board in my local library to keep track of what was happening in the community but libraries are currently closed so that source of information at the moment is no longer accessible.

Thank you for the introduction @jeffz  
Good to meet you @Terry.McGinnis there is a fair amount going on in the UK and Ireland governments with solid. We are aspiring to use solid in a mobility wallet app but do not have that up and running yet.
