Hi Henry - Yeah - having played with FOAF+SSL it is nice, albeit a bit of<br>
work is needed at the moment. I think for that bit to get easier we either<br>
need really good installers or, ideally, support by the browsers to make the<br>
cert bits a no brainer.<br>
<br>
It is certainly the closest I have seen to OpenID just working in the<br>
browser.<br>

It already works in the browser, and has for years. The problem is that most<br>
people here don't want to look at the solution, because of fear of the<br>
semantic web it seems, or some such (not sure).<br>
<br>
You can see it working in this home made video<br>

<br>
(I welcome people coming up with better videos)<br>
The protocol is detailed here:<br>

<br>
There are some small browser improvements that could be made, though it<br>
would not take long to convince some of the browsers vendors to make them.<br>
