True.  I mentioned it very quickly in passing, but didn't go into
details.


Oh, Cristobal.  I think, to properly cover this subject, that we should
plan on a whole day, how about January 1st, and have sessions on Web of
Trust ( PGP-style and CA-style ( Thawte and CACert )), The History of
Certificates, History of CACert and the Audit Process, How to Create and
Use Certificates, the implementation of your own private CA, The Role of
the CACert Assurer, The Rights and Responsibilities of a CACert
Community Member, --- what else?
