HI!

I would like to announce a new beta release of my package pyCA, a set of
scripts and CGI-BIN programs written in Python for setting up and
running a certificate authority using OpenSSL.

See

  http://sites.inka.de/ms/python/pyca/

for more details.

I would like to ask for feedback of people using this package. Any hints
for improving this package are appreciated. I do not have the
possibility to test this software under other Unix environments than
Linux, OpenLDAP and ApacheSSL.

Changes since 0.4.5:
- you have to upgrade to Python 1.5.2
- some bugfixes and code cleaning
- better documentation
- some changes to configuration (might be incompatible to 0.4.5!!!)
- allow defining the request form depending on specific certificate type
- configuration of preferred certificate format
- automatic publishing of certificates with informing user by e-mail

Ciao, Michael.
