Yes, one can reference legislation, in notes in the source text, in fixed "talk" files like on Wikipedia or freehand.  My sense is that it makes sense for the comments to reference the text rather than the text reference the comments.  Comments should change more often than the text and different people can have differing views, hence different comments.  The back-links are roughly available now via search on GitHub, but it is funky.  In future should be available as queries in the app (grep) or in a graph.

From our conversation today, it seems it might be useful to map the requirements of the privacy laws Adrian mentions to an implementation in UMA.  The European part is here (sliced like fish) http://www.commonaccord.org/index.php?action=doc&file=Wx/eu/europa/europarl/2012-0011/Form/0.md, and I could do the US one.

Re accodification (sure that isn't the process of adding cod to a dish?), should we be thinking about referencing various legislative sources from our model text in parameterized fashion, if possible, as we make our clauses jurisdiction-specific?

This is very interesting and I agree.  

I had accodified ( Eve ;) ) the European text so that one can rehash it and make deep links into it. E.g.:

My sense is that such requirements can drive adoption of good (even best) practices, for instance regarding retention and access:

Those requirements could be baked into agreements with users and governments, such as Appendix 2 to the "Model Clauses" (the tan-colored part near the end of the document):

In the last month two very important regulatory guidance documents have been released by the EU and US governments respectively:
By adding to these regulations a single constraint - that an individual can own and specify the UMA Authorization Server if they choose to - I think we can derive a complete UMA Legal profile and associated clauses.

I've started analysis of the US reg at http://bit.ly/HEARTfromHIPAA I think a similar analysis could be interesting for the EU regs.
