---------------------------------------------

@Henry: as issues CLEREZZA-509 depends on this one (by mofifying classes added with this issue) you should close this issue. As long as this isn't closed dependent issues should not be resolved.

> Enabling friend requests to work globally, without the reliance on e-mail is essential for any social web platform. Adding a friend, once the server has his WebId should be as simple as:
>   1. add webid to list of foaf:knows
>   2. find if the known person has a ping endpoint
>   3. ping that endpoint to let them know that one is pointing to them
> The pinged person should on receiving the friend request be able to see a message with the request, and decide what type of relation she wants to have with the original pinger.
> A very simple protocol for this is described here http://www.w3.org/wiki/Pingback
