Questions about why individual CAs are included are not on-topic to this bug.
To quickly answer your question though: Debconf is the annual Debian
conference and this certificate was used to sign services related to that.


Cheers,

Bug#647848: About the Debconf CA

2012-09-07 Thread Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez 
Hi,


I was inspecting the CAs that Debian enables as trusted by the system [1],
and I found this Debconf CA 



Who is behind this Debconf CA? For what this is used?
Why Debian enables it as trusted by the system?



Thanks!


Regards!
