[OpenID] putting myopenid clients certs together with openid foundation enrollment, with webid profiles

[Peter Williams]

I played with web identity, in a blog post. I feel like I'm close to what was originally intended, with the XRI/XDI/HXRN and openid integration. But, is this REALLY what folks intended? I cannot decide it its nirvana, or a giant mess. if it is close to what was sought after, Im thinking of going a last step: ensuring a missing piece from the XRI trusted reoslution is replicated using present day mechanism - delivering the ability of one namespace to sign the next, in a chain, supproting a list of of XRDs in an XRDS. Rather than do it the (unwanted) XRI trusted resolution way and use XRDS chains (great idea, wrong timing), Ill just use cross-certificates, which are now mainstream (for name space co-recognition, purposes)  > From: home_pw at msn.com
