Funny, I was thinking the other day about the certificate issue on Sage, having just had to sign one myself. There would be no harm in contacting Verisign, Thawte or any of the other properly supported CA's and asking them if they would do a freebie, Show them your sponsers page, say they would be added etc. The problem with the cheap CA's (GoDaddy etc) is the browsers don't support them, so people will get a warning anyway. In that case, you might as well sign it yourself as Micky Mouse and not bother asking them for a free one for OS projects. Universities would be in a pretty good position to act as CAs for students and staff and might well get Firefox to support them if they did a job well. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
