Hi folks,

I'm sure this is a bit of a FAQ. Are there plans to support signing
JARs using Verisign keys, e.g. the keys used with Microsoft's
Authenticode? I notice they don't seem to be in the DER format used at
least by ssleay and javakey.

Alternatively, does anyone know how to get legal DER credentials out of the
Authenticode creds?
