In that email he's very clearly showing a WebID denoting a persona, not a person. Sandro, A WebID denoting an Agent isn't disjoint with the notion of personae. When I demonstrate WebIDs across Facebook, LinkedIn Twitter, G+, and many other social media spaces [2][3], I actually refer to the whole things as being about a given persona. None of that negates the fact that a WebID denotes an Agent. We have to loosely couple: 1. identity 2. identifiers 3. identification 4. identity verification (e.g., when authenticating identification) 5. trust. Claims represented as RDF statements handle 1-5, naturally. We don't have a problem here, really.
