RE: [xdi] XDI and Next Generation Networks

["Drummond Reed" <drummond.reed@cordance.net>]

Giovanni,

Thank you very much for these uploads. I very much wish I could come to
Barcelona for the ID-Trust workshop, however commitments here in the States
prevent it. However I know at least XRI/XDI TC member Markus Sabadello will
be there, and he's been very busy with implementing the XDI RDF model.

I look forward very much to the two of you meeting there. Please do let us
know how it goes.

Also, we're hard at work on the final draft of the XRI Resolution 2.0 spec
this week, so I expect that activity to be concluded this month. At that
point we will return our focus to moving XDI 1.0 forward, as well as
commencing work on XRI 3.0.

Best,

=Drummond
