HBX Startup
Revision as of 10:39, 21 December 2006 by Unnamed Poltroon (Talk)
This page is a temporary placeholder to describe what HBX does when it starts up. At present this page is just a bunch of random notes.
First time HBX starts up
- Connect to a Higgins IdA service endpoint
- If HBX has been "seeded" (from where it was downloaded) with an service URI then attempt to resolve (if the URI is an iname/XRI then perform XRI resolution as needed), otherwise prompt the user for their "Higgins Identity Agent URL"
- Display and user acceptance of Higgins EULA / Terms of Service
- Display and user acceptance of Higgins Privacy Agreement
- If user already had an account, ask them to type their Higgins IdA password. Else prompt for a new username and password and create a new Higgins IdA account
- Drag & drop a vCard (optional) [to create & initialize a "Personal" personal card]
- Edit "Personal" I-Card
Nth time HBX starts up
- Connect and authenticate to Higgins IdA service endpoint
- Background processing of HTML scraping jobs (e.g. identity verification)
