How can this possibly be of any value? The whole point behind
having a signed certificate is having a "trusted" third party vouch that
you are who you claim to be. OpenCerts email verification is weak at
best.
At one point Bruce Perens was working with a company that was
planning to have the Notary Publics at one of the large Mailbox chains
checking photo IDs and signing certs at a very low cost -- a service
like that would have a lot more value to me.
