To be fair (to me :-), I was trying to imply that it must work with
either whois++ or LDAP w/centipede. One might argue that if you can
handle X.509, adding LDAP isn't too much extra work; however the converse
doesn't necessarily apply, so an LDAP oriented solution may not be as
stupid as it sounds, however RFC822/whois++ is simpler for the non DER
savvy (InDERviduals?)
