No Objections with PoJAM.

Not me, neither.  I read it, I'd vote AYE if the vote were posted.

Security Policy (SP) should undergo a review and should be made ISO
27001 conform. It's on my task list but not on priority 1.

I'm thinking the same. We could pull in the team leaders for the critical areas and ask them to work through their sections. It's too important a policy to not give it as good a thrashing as we can. So, maybe later?





These other issues below -- I'll do under another email because they are interesting but less priority.

One Policy I like to add is CP / CPS. It is not totally compliant to RFC
3647. The RFC states one policy or at least one practice statement per
(sub-)CA. As I figured out, CAcert has 4 CAs: Test (no security),
Anonymous (low security), Named and Organisation (medium security).
Not really covered is the security need for code signing. However,
CAcert is not capable to issue high security certificates at the moment.
This is also on my task list, after SP is done.

Benedikt

Any other suggestions?
To pick up on this, some other suggestions have circulated:

*  move PoJAM to POLICY

*  move Security Policy to POLICY
