Micropub issuer? #3

How can we leverage micropub to publish badges? Can We turn Jess Klein's badging app into a micropub client?

How would this interact with potential ledger?

Could we opt for cryptographically signed badges instead of hosted? It would make the necessary addition to the spec lighter. See bSkilled for an example of signed badges in JS. The key is stored encrypted in local storage I think, so you'd have to make sure you trust the code running on the site because that stuff isn't deeply built into browsers yet.
