[sidr] TA questions

[Robert Kisteleki <robert at ripe.net>]

Hi,

I'm proxying two questions from our development team regarding the TA draft:

1) How do the authors envision key roll overs for the RTA?

Even though the draft allows for re-publication of the self-signed RTA with 
new resources, it does not seem to address key roll overs for that RTA. It 
seems one would have to publish a new ETA to support this, which would make 
invalidating the previous RTA (if that's ever needed) difficult.

2) Can we have a more clear pointer the RTACMS object for relying parties?

The current proposal has the ETA CA point to a directory. See page 7 of the 
draft for an ascii-art representation of this. This means that relying 
parties will have to find the actual RTACMS object in this directory 
themselves. Probably rsync the whole thing and loop over the entries to 
figure out which is which.
