RE: Special Topic Call - Agentic Linked Data

Hi all,

Forgive my failure to attend in the previous call. Is there a time slot 
set out for the next meeting?


Also regarding authorisation and delegation: indeed I would say that's 
no less difficult (if not more difficult) than authentication. There 
will be the perception of the user / owner, and also the autonomous 
interaction of agents; in addition, there will be disappearing of 
agents. I would have a lot to argue in this area, given my background in 
data usage control...
