Re: Contd: Using WebID ACLs to control access to my Google Drive, SkyDrive, DropBox, and Amazon S3

hi henry,

i remember we talked about that a year or so ago..

the problem is that you give control out of hands, which i can imagine is unwanted in most cases.
if i grant access to a resource to a group, access to that resource can be changed by whoever has
control over the group.

Works. But I think more fun is if your Access control policy allowed friends of your friends,
and perhaps members and friends of the WebID and rww community groups (as specified by foaf files
to be written).

That is when this starts becoming a lot more easy to understand.
