I would like to invite you to join us for the upcoming Federated Social Web Summit 2011 - June 3-5 20 in Berlin
http://d-cent.org/fsw2011/

Goals and Scope: This workshop intends to bring together communities building federated social networking code-bases with those involved in privacy and identity. It will be the second conference, following up on the original Federated Social Web Summit in Portland in 2010, but now with a focus on privacy protection in the social web and the cloud. As it is a W3C Workshop, it will have one day for position papers and discussion. To continue the tradition of the Federated Social Web Summit in Portland in 2010 and attract more developers, the summit will also have a open-space, including opportunities for collaborative coding and open talks, for an entire day. [*]

And also consider joining W3C Federated Social Web Incubator Group (soon changing into community group)

We're sending invites to various projects working on protocols for federated social networking and developers of open source platforms implementing them. You can see growing list of invites here:

Please also feel invited to take a closer look on the wiki of our group, still in it's early stage but already providing some information about group participants, related protocols and software - including list of open source platforms where developers already work on implementing federation or consider implementing it:

Last but not least, our public mailing list with its archives stays available here:

Looking forward to work together with you on improving interoperability of social networking platforms and increasing freedom of all of us using them!

Cheers Daniel (Participant of W3C Federated Social Web Incubator Group)
