4. Should end-user only authorization be supported? For
instance, if a data consumer wants to perform language
translation to the web page he/she requests, should he/she be
the one who would authorize the OPES device which performs
the transformation. Should the content provider be notified
that the content they provide is being modified? There are
some copyright issues in there, since the transformation may
have already infringed the copyright of the content owner.


There is an advantage in notifying the content provider when the data is
modified by opes device. The provider will come to know which lang. the
content 
is transformed the most. So that the provider could keep a copy of the
content
in the same language. Thus he could contribute on avoiding that many
opes 
transformations.

Thanks
