Simple WebID, WebID+TLS Protocol, and ACL Dogfood Exercise #2

All,

Yesterday I shared a protected document [1][2] that's viewable by the 
public but only editable by identities verifable using the WebID+TLS 
authentication protocol. Building on the aforementioned exercise, I've 
made added the following tweaks:

1. applied an ACL to the folder containing the protected Turtle 
documents that allows members of a group called the RWW Crew to perform 
Read-Write operations at the folder level
2. created a protected Turtle document that describes the RWW Crew -- 
this means any member can extend Group membership by editing the Turtle 
doc which the passes on the folder level Read-Write privileges.

What problem does this solve, beyond the obvious?

There are many occasions where we make and publish lists that 
*inadvertently* include omissions. This is an example of how Linked Data 
exploitation addresses this common problem e.g., my RWW Crew list is 
incomplete (albeit by design in this case) but other members (rather 
than I solely) can help bring the list up to date.

Note, you could use the same pattern to crowd-source an Address Book, 
Calendar etc..

Let me know how you get on.
