In case it wasn't obvious, I need to state that *it is my opinion*
that 512 bits is not a reasonable length for an RSA public key
to be used by a CA in 2007.

I base that opinion on NIST's statement to the effect that even 1024-bit
RSA public keys will not be strong enough beginning in the year 2010.
