PLING - Policy Languages Interest Group

It might of interest to some folks working on information privacy in social network applications that the W3C has started an interest group called PLING (Policy Languages Interest Group). It is an open forum to discuss use cases, languages, and frameworks around information governance policies and serves as a global platform to enable different initiatives to share and exchange ideas about policy interoperability. Part of my PhD work is setting requirements and mechanisms to talk “privacy” to computers. Not an easy task. As we know, for computers the Web is flat. Privacy, however, has many dimensions and depends on various contexts. Therefore, I thought it might be a good idea to join PLING and see how I can contribute with some use cases related to privacy in social network applications. If you are interested in joining the group, please go to http://www.w3.org/Policy/pling/ and join the public mailing list.
