http://www.idcommons.net/ not accepting i-names as OpenID?

Filed under: - =nat @ 7:12 pm

Neither =nat nor http://xri.net/=nat seem to work.
I guess it is using Drupal.
Perhaps I should look at the Drupal library… when I have time :-)


What is Reputation?

Filed under: - =nat @ 4:11 am

Being hopelessly jet-lagged, I was thinking of the suitable definition of “Reputation” (note the capital letter - I am not talking of the day-to-day usage of the word “reputation") in bed.

Here is what I got:

Reputation
A Reputation is a Reputor’s assessment of a Subject on a Criteria.
Reputor
A Reputor is a third party that assess the likelihood of the Subject fulfilling the Criteria. A Reputor may be composed of 1 to N assessers.
Reputation Score
A Reputation Score of a Subject on a Criteria by a Reputor is the subjective probability assigned by a Reputor that the Subject fulfils the Criteria.

What do you think?

Reputation Discussion at iiw 2008

Filed under: - =nat @ 7:57 pm

Had a discussion about Reputation and Trust at IIW2008a.

Started to think that “Reputation” is a word that is too broad for most people. Probably better to concentrate on the more concrete cases.

The cases I am interested are specifically:

1) Probability of the PAPE assertion being true.
2) Probability of the adhearance of the RP to the usage proposal of the personal data that I provide.

In the above cases, I started to feel that just stating

a) Criteria, i.e., 1) or 2) above
b) Subjective Probability: 0 to 100 numeric percentatge.
c) Variance/Confidence range

together with other things like signature etc. for the security reasons are enough.

Et tu Paperboy.

Filed under: - =nat @ 9:46 pm

paperboy&co. in Japan started to accept OpenID for its online bookmark service today.

Unfortunately, it only accepts OpenID provided by:

- OpenID.ne.jp
- Yahoo! JAPAN
- livedoor
- hatena
- JugemKey

Why do those services do white listings?

Does it add value? NO. All these are free services, and you can make any number of OpenID with these providers. Then, why bother whitelisting to them?

Clearly, whitelisting does not go with the original philosophy of OpenID.

I hope that this “white listing” boom will find its end soon.

But for it, I guess we need some workable reputation framework…

OpenID Dinner @ Basel
 

From Left to Right:

=nat, Robert Ott (OpenID Switzerland*), David Reindl (OpenID Switzerland), Martin Paljak (OpenID Estonia), Snorri Giorgetti (OpenID France, OpenID Europe, Chaiman).

It was a six course dinner.
Drink started with Clemont(?) de Alsace, a Swiss white wine, which I do not remember the name, then Mouton Cadet.

* Yet to be formed.
