### 6.1 Public Key Format
BrowserID public keys make use of Cryptographic Algorithms for JWS as [listed here](http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-algorithms-00.html#SigningAlgs).
The private/public key pair can be generated using OpenSSL.
The public key is a JSON Web Algorihtms (JWA) public key as [listed here](http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-algorithms-00.html#SigningAlgs).
This is a private/public key pair than can be generated using OpenSSL. The
EyeDeeMe service has a [.well-known/browserid document](https://eyedee.me/.well-known/browserid)
that shows exactly what the [Mozilla Wiki](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Identity/BrowserID#Public_Key)
means in the example.
Generate a public key JSON document in Ruby:
private_key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(1024)
public_key = private_key.public_key
{"algorithm"=> "RS", "n" => public_key.n.to_s, "e" => public_key.e.to_s }.to_json
