But surely, why should we use some free or open initiatives like COMODO
while we dished out more than $8M of taxpayers money on the National PKI?
Is there a problem somewhere? Or this are just allegations

say CA or ICTA to be so kind as to share the implementation status of the
National PKI with the community?
