I've been talking to Verisign over the last year, and they offered to provide 
code signing certificates for *free* to open source projects.

There are a few logisitical hurdles being worked thru-and I'm not sure how the 
acquisition by Symantec has altered their path... I think I should make a phone 
call this week...

And, even at $99 (not $500)... that's not make-or-break money.

Howdy!

The certificate is actually $99, if you click through to Verisign via WinQual. 
(Or click the link below.)
https://securitycenter.verisign.com/celp/enroll/upsell?promo_code=THEDEAL99&application_locale=VRSN_US&originator=VeriSign:CELP&bundle_id=MSIECS002&enable_options=validity_1

If an OSS organization/developer wants to peruse access to WER data, a one-time 
$99 payment isn't too bad. (I did it.) I believe Garrett was poking providers 
for a commitment to support open source, but I'm not sure Verisign is on board.

Are there any plans for CoApp to feature crashdump collection? Will it be 
handled by going through Windows Error Reporting/WinQual? (if so how will it be

certificate that is the only one Microsoft will accept for WER?)
Will CoApp invent their own crashdump collection logic?

Or will CoApp not have crashdump collection/analysis at all?
