/**
The Certificate class is an abstract class used to manage
identity certificates. An identity certificate is a
combination of a principal and a public key which is
certified by another principal. This is the puprose of
Certificate Authorities (CA).
This class is used to manage different types of certificates
but have important common puposes. Different types of
certificates like X.509 and OpenPGP share general certificate
functions (like encoding and verifying) and information like
public keys.
X.509, OpenPGP, and SDSI can be implemented by subclassing this
class even though they differ in storage methods and information
stored.
