Human Centric appears to be a much better solution, and by that i mean
something that can be decentralised and rather than being secured simply by
cryptography, also something that is socially-aware as a means of humans
providing ID/AUTH support for other humans.

Thereafter; we've got something to start issuance of credentials to/at.

I also note; the physical function of someone being able to goto a
post-office or something of that nature to get access to their ID again (if
their world is lost to them) is also a far more sensible approach than
email-recovery IMHO.

LoL.  I also note his use of CC in it.

It would be interesting to hear from TimBL what the story is...
