I have obtained the domain password but have not arranged to move the domains to an Australian registrar yet. Rob

I do not know how far Robert is progressing on this.

Hi Ian (and others),

I think we are still missing one important element in the Security Policy
and Security Manual. This concerns the management of the DNS for cacert.org.
CAcert's operations are critically dependent on the correctness of some of
the DNS entries under the cacert.org domain. So I think this needs to be
specified in some detail in the security documentation.
(Un?)fortunately I don't know how this is organised right now. All I know
is from observing the contents of 'whois cacert.org' and the NS entries for
cacert.org. Apparently CAcert Inc., owner of the domain, has subcontracted
its DNS service to an Austrian organisation operating under the domain
go-now.at. It is *not* under control of the critical system administrators.
Probably the CAcert board and/or Philipp can give you more information.

Best regards,
