I agree with your view.
If your postdoc wants to share, brainstorm, etc
I will be available.
Security will become a topic next year for the KNMG.
And most likely we will start of with a small (invitational) conference.
They asked me to start thinking about it.
At some point you gave a reference to Ron Rivett's articles.
I suggested to him to use the SGML syntax instead of his own one.
I haven't thought every thing through completely.
In general I tend to agree. I haven't read all of his articles yet.
But I haven't found out how Certificates can be revoked. (people die, get
other functions are transferred, etc) The only mechanism which limits the
use will be the limitation in time attatched to the certificate.
What will happen if there is no Time-Limit to a certificate?
