It is indeed unbelievable to hear the COO of a CA company making threats like this. I'm sure that making such threats is not covered by Mozilla's inclusion policies, but maybe it should be. And, yes, I'm serious. Given that Startcom has the ability to issue bogus certificates like the kind that Eddy is threatening, I would think that a public statement like the above is relevant to Mozilla or Microsoft deciding whether or not the organization is trustworthy. _______________________________________________ dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
