Hi Tom,Yes I have been discussing with Stéphane as well. Hopefully we can get things going.About the willingness to participate, if we make the system open enough (but with spam control) then we really don't need to be setting goals about the community's willingness to participate. It will create a spontaneous collaborative environment.That's why I favor a wiki system. But Drupal works very similarly to wikis, right? So no need to change the technology. Just more open and user-friendly signup system is enough for now.Luca
All,Circa. 2013 we have Web Access Controls and verifiable Identity that scales to the Web. Basically, these are applications of the very technology we are encouraging the world to explore and implement. If we don't use these technologies ourselves why should be in any position to ask others to use this technology.
Here's what we have: 1. WebID -- HTTP URI that denotes Agents2. WebID Profile Document -- the content of this document describes an entity denoted by a WebID
3. An X.509 Certificate that includes a WebID in its Subject Alternative Name slot -- this is for all intents and purposes a local profile graph installed to a secure location on your machine, alongside an associated private key that's paired with said certificate's public key
4. WebID+TLS -- uses RDF based entity relationship semantics and PKI to authenticate a WebID
5. Web Access Control Ontology -- describes resource access controls. How do you make it work hassle free?1. Get a WebID from an WebID Identity Provider -- there are several (a WebID supporting IdP will take the tedium out of steps 1-4 above) 2. Use a content management system that supports resource access controls based on the combined use of a WebID and the Web Access Control Ontology -- there are a number of these around.
Tom: you know how to get a hold of me, so lets get this domain back to what we aspired it would be circa. 2007 in Banff :-)

You're right, the site is very stale. As I've said many times before, I'm open to any suggestions about how to use the domain for the greatest benefit of the community. So, all ideas welcomed, though they have to include a willingness to participate and a plan for how to actually get the work done on an ongoing basis. As history shows I'm too busy right now to participate regularly :( Cheers, Tom.
