Here's an idea: an authentication is considered valid if it is vouched for by the United States, China, Russia *and* the European Union. Those governments are the only entities that would have the right to delegate their respective certification powers to private entities. The governments would also offer to certify anybody in the world free of charge. Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
