  Camino  Nein  18  0.1 %
  LibWWW  Nein  9  0 %
  Curl  Ja  2  0 %

so ie users are the minority. at least judging from the data for today.

april data:
   
Browser Grabber Zugriffe        Prozent
  Firefox  Nein  85095  36.7 %
  MS Internet Explorer  Nein  61867  26.7 %
  Konqueror  Nein  21683  9.3 %
  Mozilla  Nein  16884  7.2 %
  Unbekannt  ?  16192  6.9 %
  Wget  Ja  15474  6.6 %
  Opera  Nein  6221  2.6 %
  Safari  Nein  5848  2.5 %
  Netscape  Nein  676  0.2 %
  Galeon  Nein  618  0.2 %
     Sonstige     878  0.3 %

so I could use startcom.

the more important questions is: but why do we need an official ssl 
certificate at all? there is no user information on opensc-project.org,
all we use ssl for is the developer write access to the svn repository
(and the login with trac and awstats and munin -  but those are not
very important).

also I think the ssh security model - save a key the first time you access 
some site, and in the future check it is the same - is supperior to the ssl
model wit CAs and CRLs and all that for many use cases. at least for the
https+svn case I think it is.

anyway, much more important things to do right now, but feel free to keep the 
discussion alive and remind me after the 0.11.2 release, ok?

Thanks, Andreas
