Re: close ISSUE-40: A glossary of the preferred terms used for talking about the WebId architecture

Hi Jurgen.

  thanks for your reply. Since you are very interested in the thesaurus project, we won't close the issue but just put you in charge of it. I like the idea of having it up as a wiki where members of this group can login with their webid and edit it. I think that would be a nice little use case too.

  I can see the following todos then:

   -1 have a server which we can use and login and members of the team can update the ontology
   -2 set some goals for what should be up there (I am not a thesaurus specialist, so I don't really know what we should be trying to do here)

    I have added that here
 
     ACTION-48: Jürgen Jakobitsch to put up thesaurus wiki available to team
    
 To report back in a couple of weeks. You don't seem to be an official member of the XG - if you want just ask for it - so I put it down as an action for me. But I can add you to the team for sure. Just send me your webid.

If possible it would be really nice if you could have your endpoint generate the EARL as described here

    http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/webid/wiki/Test_Suite
 
   so that we can help you debug your implementation, and so that we can write a report on what is supported in the community. This can then be very useful in helping us provide guidelines for what formats people should support when deploying webid profiles, and for adding elements to the spec in a way guided by deployments.
