What does it take to ensure SPKI certs are searchable?
1) expressed in readable text rather than binary encoding
2) available by URL
but there needs to be some convention on content -- some format for what I
call Meaning fields -- to let the searching user specify searches.
I'm inclined to leave that problem for another day -- after we have acquired
experience with SPKI certs in actual practice. Do you have specific ideas here?
