Re: [foaf-dev] mbox_sha1sum describes only email

2008/9/14 Story Henry <henry.story <at> bblfish.net>
There are any number of solutions. Another solution would be to use an
foaf:sha1sum relation that relates an object to an sha1sum of one of
the URIs identifying it.

A while back I put together a vocabulary that allows for relating a file to its checksum with any particular algorithm:

http://downlode.org/Code/RDF/File_Properties/

At present it explicitly describes the subject of the checksum as a file, but I can see that you could change it to refer to generic "data", which could be typed as a file or an email address.

Of course such a solution is probably overkill for most FOAF users, but I thought it might be of interest.
