About
A decentralized unified messaging and data exchange project based on FOAF profiles.
Goals
* Decentralized Architecture
* Human Client (appropriate visualization, e.g. friends as avatars on desktop)
Usecases (Protocol and API)
* Find/Search a friend
* Invite a friend
* Authenticate (in order to see the details of a friend's profile)
* Register a new identity
* Become trusted
* Hand over a file to a friend
* Talk to a friend
* Leave a message

Our goal is to design and implement D-FOAF, a distributed authentication and trust infrastructure without a centralised authority. D-FOAF will be a backbone for trust applications based on social relationships and will establish idenity of users similar to the way we establish identify and trust in real life.
