Hi Arno,
Yes that is what I feared.
I have checked out CA Cert a bit and I am now collecting points (getting people to check my identity by face-to-face contact), I should have 100+ points by the end of the week (3 face to face contact showing at least 2 official identification documents with picture). This will give my certificate a high security rating (you need 100 points for maximum rating) and would even allow me to become a certifyer for CA cert, if I would like to become one that is. As soon as I have that I will see if I can use this certificate to code-sign my gauges.
If that also works out, I will post the proces on the forum, because it is a bit mistifying and very unclear to say the least.
It is all a bit of a hassle but I've been told it also is for the paid CA's, the main difference being that they have their master certificates (our whatever these things are called) are included in WinXP whilst CA Cert is an association built on the open source community which isn't something MS is likely to support...
Kind regards,
Björn
