Hi ALL:

i have a question about the authentication of FOAF information. i know the FOAF information is writen by the publisher himself. But when someone else wants to make use of it, how can he trust that the informatiion is true? i don't know wheather it is a good idea to build a kind of CA to authenticate the FOAF information. Sometimes it is very hard to say the information is true or not, for example someone said in his FOAF file that he believes in Christianism, and i am looking for persons with same faith, how can i trust his words?
