6) LINK CONTRACTS

Continue discussion from the list on the following special questions related to link contracts (but not the link contract format itself) raised by Markus:

- If link contracts are enabled at an XDI endpoint and no link contracts exists, what is the "default" behavior? Allow nothing? Allow only $get?
- Can an XDI endpoint have a special notion of the XDI endpoint "belonging" to a user?
- Is yes, does that user automatically have "full rights" to the XDI endpoint outside of normal link contract evaluation?
- As an alternative to signing XDI messages with a key, can an XDI message contain a user's password for authentication?
