I am a little surprised it hasn't appeared by now. We did not agree a
specific deadline, but my impression was that it would appear in a few
days, which I mentally interpreted as "by the end of the week". Today is
Friday, so there is still time for my vague expectations to be met :-)

I'm sure Edward, Tan and Inigo are working on it furiously. Perhaps they
can give a status update and an estimated time of publication?

Hi Gerv,

I'm sorry for the somewhat late reply due to holidays/weekends and flight connections of the participants of the meeting. First thanks for hosting the meeting and I'm sorry that I personally couldn't attend.

WoSign already provided its incident report which includes basically most information regarding the various issues and failures. There were parts of the proposed steps mentioned already, hereby I'm trying to summarize it. Next week we'll add sub sections and dates to it:


1) Legal Structure - Separation of StartCom and Wosign's legal structure - StartCom reports directly to Qihoo 360.

2) Management / Board - Mr. Tan is appointed Chairman of StartCom, Inigo Barreira appointed CEO/Director of StartCom.

3) Team / Operations - Tan and Inigo work to separate StartCom and Wosign verification, development and management teams. Basically any previously shared functions (where they existed) will be separated.

4) System / Software - Any shared infrastructure will be separated from WoSign, current code base will be reviewed by Qihoo 360 and audited internally. StartCom makes the systems available for an external security audit as necessary.

5) All certificates past, present and future will be logged with CT compliant log servers.

6) Public Documentation - StartCom will present its near-term plan and update as it progresses.


Item 6 is currently the outlined steps above, plus most specifications, sub steps, specific dates in particular for items 3 and 4. I assume that steps and promises StartCom commits to will be audible and/or easy to be confirmed.

I assume that Inigo will report to the mailing list sometimes directly too in order to update on the progress.
