#agentGroup ⇒ RDF::Vocabulary::Term (readonly)

#Append ⇒ RDF::Vocabulary::Term (readonly)

Append accesses are specific write access which only add information, and do not remove information. For text files, for example, append access allows bytes to be added onto the end of the file. For RDF graphs, Append access allows adds triples to the graph but does not remove any. Append access is useful for dropbox functionality. Dropbox can be used for link notification, which the information added is a notification that a some link has been made elsewhere relevant to the given resource.

Returns:

  • (RDF::Vocabulary::Term)

#AuthenticatedAgent ⇒ RDF::Vocabulary::Term (readonly)

A class of agents who have been authenticated. In other words, anyone can access this resource, but not anonymously. The social expectation is that the authentication process will provide an identify and a name, or pseudonym. (A new ID should not be minted for every access: the intent is that the user is able to continue to use the ID for continues interactions with peers, and for example to develop a reputation)

Returns:

  • (RDF::Vocabulary::Term)

#default ⇒ RDF::Vocabulary::Term (readonly)

If a resource has no ACL file (it is 404), then access to the resource if given by the ACL of the immediately containing directory, or failing that (404) the ACL of the recursively next containing directory which has an ACL file. Within that ACL file, any Authentication which has that directory as its acl:default applies to the resource. (The highest directory must have an ACL file.)

  • (RDF::Vocabulary::Term)

When a user of the web application at a certain origin accesses the server, then the browser sets the Origin: header to warn that a possibly untrusted webapp is being used. Then, BOTH the user AND the origin must have the required access.
