Dear Michael, Dear Michael, thanks for your very valuable comments and pointers! Am 05.05.2011 um 10:34 schrieb Michael Hausenblas: > > Sebastian, > > Good stuff and timely, indeed. Can you please tell me, how this relates to TimBL's notes [1] [2] (if it does)? It certainly relates to [1] and [2], where TBL suggests using PUT for write-back of data. But TBL's notes are on a more abstract level while we have been working on a concrete realisation of these ideas by combining two widely accepted approaches (Linked Data and REST). > > I'm especially interested in the following: > > + How exactly is SPARQL utilised in your proposal? See also [3] and [4] for related work. The concept I describe is completely decoupled from SPARQL and focusses on the resource management itself. Of course we are also considering SPARQL (for querying and for updating) but this is a separate extension that is complementary (like SPARQL endpoints are complementary to Linked Data). However, in the mail I sent to the list I first wanted to concentrate on the issue where we have spent most work on. > + How is authentication and authorisation handled (like WebID [5] and WAC [6])? Since we are an applied research centre, we want to be standards-based as far as possible. There are actually two separate issues you are suggesting here. Authentication and authorisation. The authentication we are working on will be based on OAuth2, and we already have an experimental implementation for that. For authorisation we are planning to use access control lists in some form, but this is not really thought through yet- The proposal in [6] looks promising for access control lists. > > Cheers, > Michael > [1] http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/ReadWriteLinkedData.html > [2] http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/CloudStorage.html > [3] http://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-http-rdf-update/ > [4] http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1645412 > [5] http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/webid/spec/ > [6] http://www.w3.org/wiki/WebAccessControl > -- Greetings, Sebastian -- | Dr. Sebastian Schaffert sebastian.schaffert@salzburgresearch.at | Salzburg Research Forschungsgesellschaft http://www.salzburgresearch.at | Head of Knowledge and Media Technologies Group +43 662 2288 423 | Jakob-Haringer Strasse 5/II | A-5020 Salzburg
