15:23:12 [Zakim]: mischat_, listening for 10 seconds I heard sound from the following: ??P41 (10%), ??P43 (5%)
15:23:24 [mischat_]: thank danbri
15:23:28 [mischat_]: thanks
15:23:47 [hhalpin]: Zakim, next agendum
15:23:47 [Zakim]: agendum 12. "Invited Speaker: David Recordon and Luke Shepard from Facebook" taken up [from hhalpin]
15:24:09 [davidrecordon]: let me switch phones
15:24:14 [davidrecordon]: while luke introduces himself
15:24:26 [mischat_]: yay this is better
15:24:30 [tpa]: Luke: really happy to be here, thanks for inviting us
15:24:41 [tpa]: … I worked on Facebook Connect and a lot of OpenID stuff
15:24:50 [tpa]: … both the relying partners and identity provider side
15:25:03 [tpa]: … mostly interested today in answering your questions or finding what you're interested in
15:25:19 [Zakim]: + +1.650.796.aajj
15:25:21 [mischat_]: ... also interested in OAuth in activity streams stuff ...
15:25:23 [Zakim]: -davidrecordon
15:25:30 [bblfish]: yes
15:25:31 [mischat_]: yes
15:25:35 [hhalpin]: much more clear!
15:25:39 [DKA]: zakim, aajj is davidecordon
15:25:39 [Zakim]: +davidecordon; got it
15:25:52 [tpa]: davidrecordon: we're very excited to be here
15:26:05 [tpa]: … we focused on OpenID and OAuth and those areas at Facebook
15:26:19 [tpa]: … we can both talk about OpenID and OAuth have been developed, but with Chris Messina & others coming on
15:26:33 [tpa]: … it would make more sense for us to talk about our stance on privacy, identity
15:26:45 [tpa]: davidrecordon: feel free to jump in when you want
15:26:53 [tpa]: … but when we think about web standards, we ran into some challenges
15:27:02 [tpa]: … we move extremely quickly from an engineering perspective
15:27:12 [tpa]: … a lot of things done by very few people
15:27:24 [tpa]: … teams of 2-3 people (or less)
15:27:29 [tpa]: … Luke did OpenID himself
15:27:35 [tpa]: … we have really small teams working by themselves
15:27:50 [tpa]: … To balance this, we try to think about how to be involved in Standardization efforts
15:28:19 [tpa]: davidrecordon: When we did things like Facebook connect, we were really trying to go fast, find partners, iterate
15:28:29 [hhalpin]: notes that this continual iteration is not built into W3C right now...but we could recommend that in our final report.
15:28:32 [tpa]: … in contrast standards efforts take a lot of time (we understand why, we appreciate that)
15:28:47 [tpa]: … but the challenges we face as a company were how to go at this quickly and iteratively
15:29:02 [tpa]: hhalpin: one thing the XG is doing is to write a report to the W3C and all member, advisory board
15:29:03 [rreck]: lite.facebook.com has apparently cached email messages i previously deleted
15:29:20 [tpa]: … including: “here's what the W3C could do to make its process more lightweight and more appealing to social web people, etc.”
15:29:26 [tpa]: … we would love to flag this
15:29:37 [tpa]: … ie: the process being a problem for Facebook to join in
15:30:08 [tpa]: davidrecordon: when we look at OpenID, OAuth, ActivityStreams, you notice that it took them just a few years or less to get implemented by a major company
15:30:17 [tpa]: for ActivityStreams, just a few months
15:30:25 [danbri]: q+ to ask what level of interop (eg. descriptive schemas) you look for with OpenSocial
15:30:33 [tpa]: davidrecordon: we need to get to a point where people feel safe about specifications to ship them
15:30:50 [DKA]: q?
15:31:03 [Zakim]: -Lalana
15:31:12 [davidrecordon]: tpa: and that with each one the time from start to shipping a draft on a really large site is decreasing with each specification
15:31:29 [tpa]: Luke: my only experience with standards is OpenID and OAuth but yes, it was definitely useful to have expectations of things being drafted and changing often but moving quickly
15:32:00 [tpa]: … ?? … Part of this is a cultural thing, it is sometimes better to do something ourselves rather than violate specifications
15:32:10 [hhalpin]: ack danbri
15:32:10 [Zakim]: danbri, you wanted to ask what level of interop (eg. descriptive schemas) you look for with OpenSocial
15:32:11 [tpa]: … It helps us adapt to new challenges
15:32:13 [rreck]: clearly adhering to a spec takes increased resource and effort
15:32:40 [tpa]: DKA: if I could jump in briefly, and reiterate: one of the things we're going to try to do here it make recommendations
15:32:52 [tpa]: … about how the W3C could be more involved in the lanscape of all of the standards
15:33:04 [hhalpin]: notes that this is when privacy comes in.
15:33:05 [tpa]: … we are try to list and catalog the things that are done out there
15:33:32 [tpa]: … and ask the questions for each, is this something we should try to bring inside the W3C, or next steps that should be done inside the W3C
15:33:39 [DKA]: ack danbri
15:33:41 [tpa]: … basically, how the W3C could help build this Social Web world
15:33:42 [rreck]: yes
15:33:44 [mischat_]: yes
15:34:05 [tpa]: danbri: we're on a fact-finding mission
15:34:09 [rreck]: mischat: thanks again
15:34:23 [Zakim]: +Lalana
15:34:26 [tpa]: … people say “how, the W3C will come in and offer me this big plan”
15:34:38 [tpa]: … but the W3C is offering a lot of things
15:34:41 [stpeter]: stpeter has joined #swxg
15:34:45 [tpa]: … Widgets, social APIs
15:35:10 [tpa]: danbri: my question was about OpenSocial
15:35:28 [tpa]: danbri: do you see a value in bringing ?? and OpenSocial towards convergence
15:35:42 [hhalpin]: s/??/Facebook Platform
15:35:57 [tpa]: Luke: yes, definitely I was working on a platform when OpenSocial came out
15:36:00 [danbri]: particular q, is whether schema convergence might be cheaper/easier than protocol convergence
15:36:07 [danbri]: between facebook platform and opensocial platform
15:36:10 [tpa]: … at that time we were moving away from the direction OS was taking
15:36:41 [tpa]: … at this point things are moving very quickly and I'm a big fan of standards, it's just a question of how to get there, but in time, yes, it'll be one big thing
15:36:55 [tpa]: davidrecordon: the questions is how can the W3C develop stuff like OpenSocial
15:36:57 [hhalpin]: q+ OWF and W3C
15:37:04 [mischat_]: http://code.google.com/p/webfinger/
15:37:08 [tpa]: … or other stuff like webfinger or salmon
15:37:12 [hhalpin]: q+ OWF and W3C
15:37:17 [hhalpin]: q+ "OWF and W3C"
15:37:33 [tpa]: davidrecordon: the other things is what about Facebook Platform and OS together
15:37:38 [DKA]: davidrecordon - do you have a URL for that?
15:37:52 [tpa]: … people are looking for standards but also for the organization to get out of the way and let them do their stuff
15:38:05 [tpa]: … there's a wiki, a mailing list, a svn repository
15:38:09 [mischat_]: http://salmon-protocol.org/ ?
15:38:14 [danbri]: http://blog.louisgray.com/2009/10/proposed-salmon-protocol-aims-to-unify.html
15:38:36 [tpa]: … the problem the OWF is trying to tackle is Intellectual Property
15:39:09 [tpa]: … and the next thing we're working on is letting people withdraw and vote
15:39:23 [Zakim]: +pchampin
15:39:24 [tpa]: … basically it's much easier if the process is not codified?
15:39:51 [tpa]: danbri: what you do with the foundation and make sure you have the paperwork, ensure the companies don't mess it all up :)
15:40:07 [tpa]: davidrecordon: for those efforts to be successful, they have to have corporate involvment
15:40:15 [tpa]: … from companies like Google, MS, Yahoo, MySpace
15:40:35 [tpa]: … it is a challenge; how do you involve people outside of the Bay Area?
15:40:52 [tpa]: … the social web standards tend to come from the same people but that's by accident
15:41:25 [davidrecordon]: http://www.salmon-protocol.org/
15:41:55 [oshani]: scribe:oshani
15:41:58 [hhalpin]: I guess your talking about the "my name isn't accepted" by the software.
15:42:00 [tpa]: danbri: ?? If the Social platforms we build keep the schema piece separate we won't have a problem involving people from around the world
15:42:01 [hhalpin]: scribe: oshani
15:42:39 [oshani]: Luke: lot of efforts don't come from the international side
15:42:39 [Zakim]: -tpa
15:43:02 [oshani]: ... separation happening in open social
15:43:45 [oshani]: ... Activity streams have a separate spec
15:43:58 [hhalpin]: sounds a bit like RDF
15:43:58 [rreck]: taxomies for verbs
15:44:26 [oshani]: ... FB platform has lot of intl involvement
15:44:48 [oshani]: ... opensocial is also the same
15:45:05 [oshani]: ... so even though they started in the bay area, but they've grown
15:45:12 [lshepard]: hhalpin: there was a lot of discussion re: rdf, but activitystreams is considered easier to implement
15:45:36 [oshani]: hhalpin: what do you see as a useful role of the W3C in this area?
15:45:47 [rreck]: bingo
15:46:04 [oshani]: ... what are missing around policy, privacy and provenance from a tech level?
15:47:43 [oshani]: lshepard: when working with large groups the W3C process is appropriate
15:49:07 [oshani]: ... useful to think of "identitiy" and "verified identity"
15:50:27 [hhalpin]: so sort of web of trust issues...
15:50:40 [oshani]: s/lshepard/davidrecordon
15:51:31 [oshani]: lshepard: enable trust using the platform
15:51:52 [mischat_]: i met some people which are trying to use your social graph to enable online IOUs http://www.checkoutlater.com/
15:52:05 [rreck]: IMHO, peoples' identity are instantiations of a role
15:52:33 [Zakim]: -hhalpin
15:52:35 [pchampin]: interesting thought, rreck :)
15:52:42 [oshani]: ... lot of annoymous things on the Web can be done using FB connect
15:53:10 [rreck]: people are multifaceted right? at least complex people are
15:53:17 [Zakim]: +hhalpin
15:53:29 [hhalpin]: and who else would be in the IRC?
15:53:30 [hhalpin]: :)
15:53:39 [oshani]: davidrecordon: FB links and mutual comments can socially verify idenities
15:53:45 [bblfish]: cool, that fits with foaf+ssl identify verification
15:53:52 [danbri]: that makes a lot of sense (socially verified, ....)
15:54:24 [melvster]: sounds a bit like web of trust
15:54:30 [mischat_]: sounds a bit like the web ...
15:55:49 [DKA]: zakim, who is on the call?
15:55:49 [Zakim]: On the phone I see Thomas, rreck (muted), DKA, MacTed (muted), tinkster (muted), oshani, mischat_ (muted), ??P41, ??P43, +46.1.08.01.aacc, Mcf (muted), +1.510.931.aadd, melvster,
15:55:53 [Zakim]: ... +1.303.308.aaee, +1.314.705.aaff, lshepard, petef, davidecordon, Lalana, pchampin (muted), hhalpin
15:56:17 [rreck]: in real life you have contextual cues you dont have online
15:56:19 [bblfish]: yep, foaf+ssl uses little pieces of verified information to make identity decisions, just like Facebook. What is missing with OpenId is the social network part
15:57:07 [oshani]: lshepard: socially verified identities using soft cues (mutual connections) which users can make decision whether they can trust or not
15:58:07 [rreck]: presenting valence on the attribute rather than a +/- might be a strategy
15:58:21 [oshani]: Adam: mutual friends can induce not-intended friendship relationships. From a business pov it is important
15:58:25 [bblfish]: q+
15:58:30 [hhalpin]: q+
15:58:37 [oshani]: lshepard: lot of orgs are working on that.
15:58:41 [DKA]: q?
15:58:49 [oshani]: davidrecordon: like to talk about our challenges from FB
15:58:56 [oshani]: ... privacy and trust
15:59:05 [oshani]: ... moving to a per object privacy model
15:59:13 [rreck]: me too
15:59:20 [rreck]: +1 stay longer
15:59:24 [melvster]: +1
15:59:35 [danbri]: q+ to ask about hosting user-owned domains within social networks (music.danbri.org vs last.fm/danbri; photos.danbri.org vs flickr.com/danbri; id.danbri.org fs facebook.com/danbri ...)
15:59:39 [pchampin]: +1
15:59:57 [Zakim]: -Lalana
15:59:59 [davidrecordon]: I'm good :)
16:00:12 [stpeter]: over time WFM
16:00:43 [Zakim]: -??P41
16:00:45 [hhalpin]: I know the W3C is looking at this "policy language" idea in this area
16:00:53 [rreck]: the relationships on fb are reciprocal but in real life that is not necessarily the case
16:00:55 [oshani]: lshepard: for each user we want to model privacy for each different fields based on the relationship between individuals
16:01:22 [hhalpin]: seems like some sort of round-trip would be necessary for per object privacy...
16:01:28 [mischat_]: ah, stpeter, I could I email you a link to my summary of your talk, so you can eyeball it?
16:01:30 [hhalpin]: but the overhead there might be really high...
16:01:42 [oshani]: ... activity streams will have different views based on who's viewing it
16:01:47 [stpeter]: mischat_: sure thing, my pleasure
16:01:56 [mischat_]: thanks stpeter
16:02:10 [rreck]: zakim, unmute me
16:02:10 [Zakim]: rreck should no longer be muted
16:02:11 [hhalpin]: http://www.w3.org/2009/policy-ws/cfp.html
16:02:17 [stpeter]: mischat_: but how do you know that this stpeter is the stpeter who gave a talk? ;-)
16:02:20 [FabGandon]: FabGandon has left #swxg
16:02:21 [hhalpin]: "W3C Workshop on Access Control Application Scenarios"
16:02:40 [stpeter]: mischat_: IRC doesn't have strong identity :)
16:02:49 [hhalpin]: I know this is TimBL's main research area, oshani and lalana could speak to it..
16:03:14 [mischat_]: your IP address points to your stpeter.im ;)
16:03:25 [rreck]: if we could standardize on vocabulary it would be a start
16:03:30 [mischat_]: like you said in your talk, IRC allows for IP address snooping
16:03:44 [stpeter]: mischat_: heh, true, that's probably good enough
16:03:50 [stpeter]: rreck: agreed
16:04:06 [tinkster]: stpeter, NickServ provides a reasonable level of identity on some IRC servers.
16:04:10 [DKA]: q?
16:04:10 [danbri]: q?
16:04:12 [rreck]: ?q
16:04:16 [mischat_]: yes
16:04:17 [DKA]: ack bbl
16:04:35 [oshani]: bblfish: Is FB thinking of how to distribute social networks?
16:04:42 [hhalpin]: I bet a paper from Facebook on this problem would be very much appreciated. Both how it's tackled and the interop issue.
16:05:14 [bblfish]: is there any thinking at Facebook on how to distribute social networks? So that all sites could work using a similar mechanism of trust, but in a distributed way, where I can put my profile on my home page and link to someone on Facebook?
16:05:21 [rreck]: q+
16:05:22 [mischat_]: http://www.w3.org/P3P/
16:05:27 [DKA]: q?
16:05:27 [oshani]: davidrecordon: can use FB connect
16:05:53 [mischat_]: google seem to be touching in this direction : http://www.dataliberation.org/
16:06:06 [oshani]: ... interacting with other social networks is not really straightforward
16:06:28 [oshani]: ... need to understand what the interactions are
16:06:30 [danbri]: zakim, who is on the phone?
16:06:30 [Zakim]: On the phone I see Thomas, rreck, DKA, MacTed (muted), tinkster (muted), oshani (muted), mischat_ (muted), ??P43, +46.1.08.01.aacc, Mcf (muted), +1.510.931.aadd, melvster,
16:06:31 [DKA]: ack hh
16:06:33 [Zakim]: ... +1.303.308.aaee, +1.314.705.aaff, lshepard, petef, davidecordon, pchampin (muted), hhalpin
16:06:58 [oshani]: hhalpin: Would you like to look over our final report and comment?
16:07:10 [stpeter]: I'm on the phone too, but not officially logged in I suppose :)
16:07:11 [oshani]: ... in about 6 months
16:07:24 [lkagal]: lkagal has joined #swxg
16:07:32 [hhalpin]: in general? re OWF?
16:07:41 [oshani]: ... What is your opinion about the W3C patent policy?
16:07:44 [stpeter]: I think it would be helpful for each of the speakers who've come through here could read and comment on the "manifesto"
16:07:55 [hhalpin]: We will definitely send it to everybody and the list.
16:08:00 [mischat_]: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20040205/
16:08:00 [stpeter]: hhalpin: cool
16:08:21 [hhalpin]: I mean, it doesn't exist yet. In fact, if *someone* wants to take editorship that would be great.
16:09:31 [hhalpin]: so people don't say have to do a full patent search or talk to a lawyer just to interact with a draft.
16:09:34 [hhalpin]: I would assume
16:09:41 [stpeter]: hhalpin: yes, that someone would receive great praise, I'm sure :)
16:09:48 [hhalpin]: hint hint anyone :)
16:10:15 [rreck]: editorship of what?
16:10:21 [danbri]: zakim++
16:10:35 [danbri]: :)
16:10:36 [hhalpin]: +1 to somehow having these tools in a central place.
16:10:49 [hhalpin]: Just wondering if there was something obviously wrong, but if not...
16:11:15 [danbri]: i like idea of collab around *tools* as a healthy and de-politicised way for all these different standard-y communities to collaborate
16:11:16 [oshani]: davidrecordon: We prefer a more iterative model (where everyone's involved is bound to the policy ?)
16:12:05 [rreck]: i think consensus sometimes degrades implementation
16:12:26 [hhalpin]: http://www.w3.org/News/2007.html#entry-4690
16:12:31 [hhalpin]: there's the news on REX.
16:12:35 [danbri]: ( stpeter, is there something bad in something in http://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/38482/showCommitments )
16:12:37 [danbri]: ah thx
16:12:40 [davidrecordon]: it's strange, having everyone bound makes it hard for companies to participate from the start
16:12:53 [davidrecordon]: so dealing with it in the end is nicer, if you don't have to worry about withdrawl
16:13:03 [davidrecordon]: assuming everyone is working under good intentions
16:13:09 [hhalpin]: it would be good to get our lawyer thinking about this.
16:13:23 [hhalpin]: Rigo should be at OpenID summit or IIW I think...
16:13:35 [hhalpin]: but yes, "no worry about withdrawal" is perfect.
16:14:01 [hhalpin]: q?
16:14:03 [oshani]: DKA: from a corporate perspective patent policies are good
16:14:14 [DKA]: q?
16:14:22 [Zakim]: -Mcf
16:14:30 [rreck]: the conversation has kinda left what i wanted to say
16:14:31 [Zakim]: -petef
16:14:31 [oshani]: davidrecordon: clarification on the earlier point: a lightweight process is preferred
16:14:51 [stpeter]: we would have liked to use REX for doing SVG over XMPP, but were prevented from doing so
16:15:12 [danbri]: i'd like to see w3c be more of a community of peers, where bad-players get named and shamed by other participating members a bit more
16:15:20 [danbri]: q?
16:15:24 [davidrecordon]: danbri +1 :)
16:15:37 [mischat_]: danbri +1
16:16:03 [danbri]: w3c team can't name-and-shame easily, because of the member fees aspect making it tricky to be rude to the paying members; but other members shouldn't be so restricted!
16:16:04 [hhalpin]: I just wanted to know how OWF was planning on doing legal differently than W3C, and if there should be some knowledge sharing on this between W3C and OWF.
16:16:20 [DKA]: ack danbri
16:16:20 [Zakim]: danbri, you wanted to ask about hosting user-owned domains within social networks (music.danbri.org vs last.fm/danbri; photos.danbri.org vs flickr.com/danbri; id.danbri.org fs
16:16:23 [Zakim]: ... facebook.com/danbri ...)
16:16:35 [lshepard]: hey everyone i'm signing off - just realized i have a meeting to get to, so i'm going to have to sign off. thanks a ton for having us on and i look forward to seeing the manifesto when this comes out
16:16:43 [Zakim]: -lshepard
16:16:45 [tlr]: re CSS:
16:16:46 [tlr]: http://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/32061/status
16:16:48 [rreck]: thanks
16:16:56 [hhalpin]: thanks luke!
16:16:57 [tlr]: note that patents were *disclosed*, but no claims *excluded*
16:17:07 [danbri]: yes, thanks lshephard!
16:17:09 [rreck]: q-
16:17:41 [hhalpin]: (sorry, didn't mean to go into patent blackhole, but happy to see the conversation going in way danbri's pointing)
16:18:01 [oshani]: davidrecordon: patent policies needs to be more transparent
16:18:10 [rreck]: right, no biggy.
16:18:18 [tlr]: q+
16:18:47 [tlr]: q-
16:18:49 [oshani]: danbri: W3C is not monolithic, and there are different working styles in different groups
16:19:06 [DKA]: q?
16:19:07 [MacTed]: and here we also see the potential trouble with name-and-shame.
16:19:07 [MacTed]: (very loud) "they did a bad thing!" "well, no, here's what actually happened." (quietly) "oh." (but how many people heard the correction and acknowledgement?)
16:19:07 [MacTed]: false rumors turn into "accepted truth" with disconcerting frequency -- even with visible public record of *actual* events.
16:19:10 [hhalpin]: we could also talk about membership mode.
16:19:15 [hhalpin]: membership model.
16:20:05 [danbri]: q?
16:20:53 [oshani]: ... social verification: based on what you see on the profile
16:21:09 [rreck]: well that is a tipping point thing
16:21:34 [rreck]: if they are pre-established
16:21:57 [mischat_]: danbri the hyper-conntected alpha-geek :)
16:22:03 [oshani]: ... have you considered the chat on the site? or a Turing chat? :)
16:22:08 [bblfish]: or even it is difficult to pretent you are someone else, because if you tweet information for yourself, or write anything, it is difficult to be accurate about someone else's life.
16:22:41 [bblfish]: Truth is coherent, and life is complex. So both of those together make it easy for friends to notice fakes
16:22:47 [rreck]: why was that feature removed?
