http://esw.w3.org/topic/foaf+ssl

FOAF+SSL is a authentication and authorization protocol that links a
Web ID to a public key, thereby enabling a global,
decentralized/distributed, and open yet secure social network. It
functions with existing browsers.

It is a very simple protocol for RESTful authentication for the Social
Web. It is OpenID simplified and made web friendly and secure. It uses
the SSL (https) stack available in all browsers, and does not invent
anything new.

Architect at Sun Microsystems.
