Thank you for the review and the analysis.

Yes, you are right -- we need to get some sort of 'automation' of in 
requesting/retrieving the certificates.  I think the way you mention is a very

There is no rush from my side in pushing this -- we can update this to make it 
fit our need any way we want.  Let me know when it's time to tailor this a bit 
as needed.
