Hi all,

In http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-03#section-4.1.6
,

"The  certificate or certificate chain is represented as an array of
   certificate values. "

But, Appendix B gives us a text stream which seems to be the same one
as the return from "x5u" .
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-03#appendix-B )

Am I missing anything between lines ?

I like the same format as the return of x5u anyway.
