Mmm. I think the brewery test is an unfair comparison. Our problem is not that the major CAs are hopeless. If they were hopeless we'd have abandoned PKIX years ago. Instead the problem is that they're good but not as good as we'd like.

We are looking for somebody who can run aforesaid event fifty times a year for the general public without anybody falling in any of the machinery.
