Hi Xavier,

Thank you for the references you sent. They are at the crossroads of the
Concerto project and the Nepomuk-Eclipse taskforce we have in the
NEPOMUK project: http://nepomuk-eclipse.semanticdesktop.org

I was not aware of the specific Eclipse security project, we'll look
into it indeed.

As for ECF, it provides a good abstraction layer for various P2P
protocols indeed. We will consider it.

Cheers

Stéphane
