Hugh, if you use an end user directed service such as https://my-profile.eu you can get a certificate in one click. If you choose to use the hard way, by doing everything by hand then things get complicated. But then you could argue that HTTP is complicated too, if you tried to write one by hand. The video on https://webid.info/ shows just how simple things can be. Henry Social Web Architect http://bblfish.net/
