Congratulations on your great project to be included in 1.8.0.

RAA will allow project owners to update his/her entry via SSL
with client certificate.  This means RAA have it's own CA
and publish(word?) certificates to project owners.  Soap4r +
http-access2 will help you to handle certificates for
secure RAA update.

Welcome.  Gotoyuzo did the main job.  I only fixed some glitches
and added examples.

We NaHi and gotoyuzo had a presentation about PKI
based on OpenSSL and Ruby/OpenSSL.  Slides are here
but bear in mind, no code in slides and it's in Japanese.

Michal, how is the status of your PKI project?
Are there anyone who are interested in PKI, CA/RA?
