Performing a SPARQL query at *all* is merely a suggested approach. IMHO this is an important point. essentially you are performing a the pseudo code : Get Public Key from a URI ======================= getPublicKey ( URI ) Conceptually, at Web scale, there may a number of different ways of doing this, each with a confidence interval.
