Re: WebID XG - semantic group profile.

What we could also do is start off with all people on the list and identify them
via the foaf:mbox_sha1sum relation, if this is not a privacy issue. Then  even services 
that identify people via e-mail could verify that they are part of the group.

   That would go like this:


:webIDXG a foaf:Group;
    foaf:name "The WebID Incubator Group";
    foaf:member <http://bblfish.net/people/henry/card#me>,
               [ foaf:mbox_sha1sum "60f034ceab5b8b6fe8085a9e9f72ae23d2e809e8"],
               ...


So that say that  Reto and I are members of the webIdXG list. That could then be enhanced to 
point with a doap:Project information, describing the project we are working on.


The mbox_sha1sums I could generate automatically by scraping the mailing list members,
Or perhaps somebody in the W3C even could write a script to do that. Then all that would
be needed would be a form where people who logged in with their e-mail could also login with their webid to prove the equivalence. 
                
   I am not sure if this is within what is feasible within the W3C rules. So I am CC Coralie here.
