[ca-tf] Next steps & Write-up of the CA-TF kick-off meeting

Dear All,

> As discussed, we will group areas and facilitate the discussion of these
> areas (one-by-one) on the mailing list.

To get started: It would be good if everybody could read these minutes and
confirm (or deny) that they are a fair representation of what was said during
the meeting.  If we forgot anything essential or misquoted you, please let
us know by Friday, March 9, 12:00 cet.

It looks like we then have the following topics with questions and open issues:

   a) Checks on customers seeking certification
   b) Revocation of certs and resources
   c) How to generate a critical mass of users
   d) End users and PI space
   e) Resource Transfers
   f) Certificate repository
   g) Policy issues
   h) Open questions
   i) Anything that we forgot.

These are 9 areas.  The TF has to be ready by RIPE55 (October), or in 5 months
time.  If we substract a bit of time to prepare a report, this gives us
approximately 2-3 weeks per topic.

I suggests, for the lack of a better idea, to address these topics in this
order and give ourselves 2 weeks/topic (and a bit more during the summer
months with people vacationing).  Does this sound reasonable?

Henk
