Henry Story commented on CLEREZZA-473:
--------------------------------------
This feature is now described in great detail here in the paper to be presented
at Federated Social Web Conference in Berlin.
http://bblfish.net/tmp/2011/05/09/
Conference is at http://d-cent.org/fsw2011/
The issue is pretty simple, and only needs a couple of SSP filesor so and some
JSR methods.

> Enabling friend requests to work globally, without the reliance on e-mail is
> essential for any social web platform. Adding a friend, once the server has
> his WebId should be as simple as:
> 1. add webid to list of foaf:knows
> 2. find if the known person has a ping endpoint
> 3. ping that endpoint to let them know that one is pointing to them
> The pinged person should on receiving the friend request be able to see a
> message with the request, and decide what type of relation she wants to have
> with the original pinger.
> A very simple protocol for this is described here
