Hi Marta,
nice to hear from you and thanks for the explainations. This sounds like a real success story for DSS !
Is the validation service available for goverment use only or is it a public service ? As a midterm goal we try to supply a verification service for the EU qualified certificates and the launch of the TSL brings us a big step ahead. But if a country got a ready-to-use service I would prefer to re-use than to re-invent ...
Greetings
Andreas
