Regarding MARMOTTA-432 : GSoC

[Sushant makode <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi ,
I have started to outline my proposal document for OAuth2 Support
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MARMOTTA-432.

Can somebody tell me where can I find related documentation or some sort of
pointers to me to get into this topic well.

The OAuth 2.0 specification is available at http://oauth.net/2/

There is not much background... The idea is basically to extend the 
current security mechanism (HTTP Basic Auth) to also access write 
capabilities in Marmotta via OAuth 2.0.

There are many papers exploring the concept in Linked Data:

http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=oauth2+linked+data

but I'm not aware of concrete results besides the regular OAuth2 libraries.

I think we only have some documentation for users:

http://marmotta.apache.org/platform/security-module.html

not really about the internals of the security module, so you'd need to 
dive into the code for getting some clues.

Cheers,
