http://eurosign.com/ JohnHemming@eurosign.com (no relation *not* ) When I initially implemented SSL (back in March 1995) I had all sorts of problems getting a Cert. I decided to establish a CA outside the US ASAP because of all the grief. To be fair until Netscape 2.0 is very widely available I do not think a CA outside the US can fairly charge for the provision of certs.
