[Social-discuss] friending on the social web

[Story Henry]

Hi,

   We just put together what is IMHO the simplest solution to creating remote 
friends possible. It is inspired by the well known xmlrpc pingback mechanism, 
for which we developed an ontology. 

 I think gnu social is happy with foaf, so this would be a minute piece of 
coding for
a huge gain. One could have completely distributed friending requests, which 
for the user would be as simple as point and click.

   See the description here:

   I'd be very interested in feedback on this,

        Henry
