Martin-
I agree that the .htaccess file is a big stumbling block for many people
with low-cost hosting. Would a lightweight php-based application that could
write to the .htaccess / create the RDF file work to solve this easily?
I'd suggest exploring a lightweight but standards-based PHP app that
could be dropped into a site, given a configuration and top-level
directory, such that external sites could use a OAuth interface to
negotiate write access, and then use AtomPub to post all kinds of data
into that Web space.
(per my previous post)
Actually I forgot another benefit of this model: external sites could
re-post data automatically, with no further user interaction. This
solves a lot of "my foaf file ... i generated it once but didn't keep it
up to date" problems...
