As I mentioned earlier I had to change foafssl.org server certificate as I changed my server and as the cert had expired. The new one that is up at https://foafssl.org/srv/idp/ has the following new features:
1. It uses a URL friendly base64 encoding of the signature to avoid odd issues
2. It has a new key. But they key is now published in RDF on the page itself. It should be the same public key as is used by the ssl layer which you can find with
$ openssl s_client -showcerts -connect foafssl.org:443 | openssl x509 -noout -text
So if you have a library, you could test the ssl key if you get to many errors from time to time automatically.
The URL is exactly as previously:
The signature is signing the string
Please let me know if you have any issues. Andrei found a bug in the signature. I am not absolutely sure it is fixed.
