There is growing interest in FOAF and its relationship to various approaches to "identity management" on the Internet. The FOAF approach to all this is distinctly pluralistic, to the extent that you might not even notice that there is a FOAF way of dealing with identity. There aren't, for example, 'FOAF identifiers' as such, although there is certainly a FOAF approach to identifying things. So this is a first cut at writing up some of the as-yet-unarticulated design assumptions behind FOAF. A more user-friendly version would have examples, those will have to come later.
