A very basic implementation of foaf+ssl is up here:

  http://webid.myxwiki.org/

We put it up at its own wiki to allow us more freedom to try out new ideas. 
You can currently create an account there, then create your X509 certificate in 
one click which you can use to login to other sites.

  Some things that would be fun to put there:

 1- cool homepage URLs
   -------------------

  For example:

  http://webid.myxwiki.org/id/bblfish

  would be nice, and a lot better than

  http://webid.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/hjs

  This would then allow us later to all have URLs like

  http://xwiki.org/id/bblfish

  Which makes for good OpenIds.


 2- Add OpenId to the home pages
  ------------------------------

 This is extremely easy. Just add 

   <link rel="openid2.provider openid.server" 
href="http://openid4.me/index.php"/> 

 to the header of the profile page. 
 http://OpenId4.me/ automatically logs one in then if one has a WebId


 3- Add Foaf+ssl login to xwiki
 ------------------------------

 - using https://foafssl.org/srv/idp
   to start off with to get the basics right

 - by developing a module that fits into xwiki
  (more setup costs, but speeds things up a lot)


 4- Somewhat more clever authentication policies 
 -----------------------------------------------

  Using foaf+ssl one can develop rules to give access to parts of the wiki to 
all the friends of one's friends, to all people working on a project (described 
by DOAP), etc...

 Many more ideas.

 But I'll be happy if the above work. I think that should get everyone here 
interested enough to develop more such cool examples.
