WebID discussion in Debian

Hi,

A discussion at the Debian developers' mailinglist touches WebID, with 
sceptical input from one of our "wise guys", Russ Allbery.

I think it might be helpful if someone knowledgeable on WebID crypto 
details read https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/05/msg00886.html 
and consider if relevant to clarify some details.

NB! Please beware it is a looong thread where WebID is only *briefly* 
touched: While helpful to "clue us in" on specific details, I suspect it 
high risk of being misunderstood as "hijacking the conversation" or even 
"spamming" if expanding to educate us more generally on the virtues of 
WebID.

Best would be a short, sharp input, preferrably referencing hardcore 
documentation on the topic, I think.  Unless Russ' judgement is fully 
correct.
