				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 28th Large Installation System Administration conference (aka. Lisa 2014) will be meeting November 9-14 in Seattle, WA, USA. We have held a CAcert Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) session at several previous LISA events. The CAcert Assurance BoF at LISA 14 will be Tuesday evening November 11th. This session is open to the public. Full details are posted on the event page on the CACert Wiki:</p>
<p>http://wiki.cacert.org/Events/2014-11-11-LISA14</p>
<p>We will start with a presentation to introduce CAcert to newcomers. We will also discuss recent changes to the CCA (CACert Community Agreement), the TTP Assurance Program and other changes.. We will have several assurers there to do initial assurances. Mutual assurances are encouraged for getting practice and for answering questions. And there is the added benefit of earning experience points.</p>
<p>If you are in town for the conference or you live in the area, please join us to learn more about free digitial certificates available through CAcert.org.</p>

Details sind unter [3] zu finden.</p>
<p>Dieser Assurance-Point ist interessant für alle die ihren Status innerhalb der CAcert-Communitiy verbessern wollen. Dabei ist jeder, ob CAcert Assurer, CAcert Assuree/Member, CAcert Interessierte, Einsteiger oder Unentschlossener herzlich willkommen. Es gibt die Möglichkeit für Assurees/Members Assurance-Punkte zu erwerben, für Assurer sich Erfahrungspunkte zu verdienen und sich über die CAcert Community zu informieren. Um einen reibungslosen Ablauf der Identitätsüberprüfung zu ermöglichen, wird darum gebeten neben hinreichenden amtlichen Lichtbildausweisen auch genügend ausgedruckte CAP-Formulare, für sich selber und andere, mitzubringen.</p>
<p>Es wird empfohlen, sich vor der Veranstaltung schon bei CAcert [1] zu registrieren, da so der Prozess vor Ort beschleunigt werden kann.<br />

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On July 23, the CAcert webdb server will be unavailable for most services from 10:00 CEST until approximately 11:30 CEST.</p>
<p>The reason for this is the need to convert the database from MyISAM format to InnoDB format, to address <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1172">https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1172</a></p>
<p>We cannot predict exactly how long this conversion will last, but it is estimated to be less than 90 minutes. During this time, the server will remain up and running. The web frontend will also remain up and running, but with very limited functionality only (no user logins), due to the database being offline.</p>
<p>We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this major but necessary operation.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The software team pushed a new patch to production that has an impact on the way how new assurances have to be entered into the system.</p>
<p>Starting today, besides entering the primary email address further information has to be provided in order to gain access to assurance relevant data of the assuree. Additionally the date of birth of the assuree has to be stated by the assurer, before any data of the assuree is displayed for the assurance process.</p>
<p>This change was made for data protection reasons to ensure nobody is able gain access to personal data entrusted to CAcert by mere guessing of email addresses.</p>
<p>It hopefully will also reduce the number of problems with assurances that contain a wrong date of births.</p>

in business again.</p>
<p>In February board nominated a Policy Officer (Eva Stöwe) and this was later<br />
confirmed by a Policy Group vote.</p>
<p>At about the same time an intensive discussion regarding changes to the CCA<br />
started.</p>
<p>There are a lot of changes, some of them being just cleanups or<br />
rephrasing, but there are also some bigger changes.</p>
<p>The central changes are:<br />
<strong>- The CCA can be accepted by more ways than currently allowed.<br />
&#8211; How CCA may be terminated was greatly rephrased, it now also covers<br />
death of members.<br />
&#8211; A clear obligation to answer truthfully before and to help arbitration<br />
was added.</strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[German version below]<br />
The software team recently released a patch which enables users to choose the hash algorithm used during the creation of a new certificate. Since the deprecation of SHA-1 earlier this year only certificates using SHA-512 for the signature could be issued. Now the available choices have been extended to SHA-256, SHA384 and SHA-512 where SHA-256 is the current default. Due to some organisational issues, the choice of SHA-384 will for now silently use SHA-512 instead.</p>
<p>The default hash algorithm has been selected as SHA-256 for compatibility with Debian systems using GNU TLS 2.12, which fails to operate correctly when a certificate signed with anything but SHA-256 has been used. This decision may be reviewed in the near future once the new Debian (Jessie) is released.</p>
<p>The move away from SHA-1 had to be made as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) disallowed certificates with SHA-1 algorithm issued after 2013-12-31 [1]. If your software still needs a SHA-1 signed certificate, get in contact with your vendor and request a software update, to cope with SHA-2 signatures. The use of SHA-1 had been deprecated since 2011.</p>
<p>N.B.: The software team still needs your help to test the remaining parts of the patch and get it released in a timely manner. The same is true for all our other patches that are waiting to be released. Feel free to drop by in the IRC channel or ask your questions on our mailing list.</p>
<p>[1] <a href="http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-131A/sp800-131A.pdf">http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-131A/sp800-131A.pdf</a>;</p>
<p>[German]<br />
Das Software-Team hat einen Patch herausgegeben, der es Nutzern erlaubt, die Stärke des bei der Erstellung des Zertifikates benutzten Hash-Algorithmus auszuwählen. Seit Anfang des Jahres ist die Nutzung von SHA-1 geächtet. Daher wurden die Zertifikate bisher mit SHA-512 ausgestellt. Jetzt stehen die Algorithmen SHA-256, SHA-384 und SHA-512 zur Auswahl, mit SHA-256 als Standardeinstellung. Aus organisatorischen Gründen, benutzt SHA-384 intern derzeit allerdings noch SHA-512.</p>
<p>Der Standard-Hash-Algorithmus wurde mit SHA-256 gewählt, um kompatibel mit Debian-Systemen zu sein, die noch GnuTLS 2.12 nutzen und Schwierigkeiten haben andere, als mit SHA-256 signierte Zertifikate zu verwenden. Diese Vorgabe wird überarbeitet werden, sobald das nächste Debian (Jessie) veröffentlicht wird.</p>
<p>Der Wechsel weg von SHA-1 wurde notwendig, da Zertifikate, die nach dem 2013-12-31 ausgestellt werden und SHA-1 nutzen, vom National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) als unsicher eingestuft werden [1]. Falls Ihre Software noch ein Zertifikat mit SHA-1 erfordert, fragen Sie bei dem Hersteller Ihrer Software nach, warum die Software noch nicht angepasst wurde, da SHA-1 bereits seit 2011 nicht mehr eingesetzt werden sollte.</p>
<p>P.S.: Das Software-Team benötigt weiterhin Unterstützung, um die verbleibenden Teile dieser Änderung zu testen, damit diese zeitnah freigegeben werden können. Das gleiche gilt auch für weitere Änderungen, die auf ihre Freigabe warten. Jeder ist eingeladen, sich in unserem IRC-Channel zu melden oder auf unserer Mailingliste seine Fragen loszuwerden.</p>

The software team has just released a patch to add a feature to the user account which allows users to view the history of their accounts.<br />
Once an user has logged in they areable to go to &#8220;My details&#8221; -&gt; &#8220;Edit/View&#8221; -&gt; &#8220;Show account history&#8221;. This will show all entries that are recorded for the account.</p>
<p>The functionality was discussed with several members (including arbitrators and the internal auditor). It has been approved by the internal auditor as meeting the data privacy policy</p>
<p>[Dutch]<br />
Het software team heeft zojuist een patch vrijgegeven om een nieuwe eigenschap toe te voegen aan het gebruikers account menu. Hiermee kan elke gebruiker de geschiedenis van zijn/haar account bekijken.<br />
Nadat de gebruiker ingelogd is, kan hij/zij gaan naar &#8220;Mijn Details&#8221; -&gt; &#8220;Bewerk/bekijk&#8221; -&gt; &#8220;Toon account geschiedenis&#8221;. Daar kan de gebruiker alle gegevens zien die voor de account zijn vast gelegd.</p>
<p>Deze functionaliteit is besproken met verschillende leden, waaronder arbiters en de interne auditor. De functionaliteit is goedgekeurd door de interne auditor met betrekking tot de CAcert privacy policy.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wir laden ein zur Assurance-Party am 04.06.2014 um 18:00 Uhr.<br />
Dieses Community Event ist interessant für alle die sich für CAcert und die Identitätsprüfung von CAcert interessieren. Dabei ist jeder, ob CAcert Assurer, CAcert Assuree/Member, CAcert Interessierte, Einsteiger oder Unentschlossener herzlich willkommen. Es gibt die Möglichkeit für Assurees/Members Assurance-Punkte zu erwerben, für Assurer sich Erfahrungspunkte zu verdienen und sich über die CAcert Community Policies (Richtlinien) zu informieren. Um einen reibungslosen Ablauf der Identitätsüberprüfung zu ermöglichen, wird darum gebeten neben hinreichenden amtlichen Lichtbildausweisen auch genügend ausgedruckte CAP-Formulare, für sich selber und andere, mitzubringen.</p>
<p>CAcert ist ein Vertrauensnetzwerk, das über seine Zertifizierungsstelle digitale Zertifikate für seine Mitglieder zur Verfügung stellt. Das Vertrauen entsteht aus der Einhaltung der Policies, dem korrekten Verhalten des einzelnen Mitgliedes und durch eine ordnungsgemäße Identitätsüberprüfungen. Für die Identitätsüberprüfung gibt es Assurancepunkte. Mit dem Punktestand steigt der Vertrauensstatus innerhalb der Community. Da hier ein strenger Maßstab angesetzt wird, wird für eine Assurance auch die Vorlage von 2 gültigen, amtlichen Lichtbildausweisdokumenten empfohlen. Hierbei wird meist Personalausweis, Reisepass oder Führerschein dem Assurer vorgelegt.</p>
<p>Es wird empfohlen, sich vor der Veranstaltung schon bei CAcert [1] zu registrieren, da so der Prozess vor Ort beschleunigt werden kann.<br />
Die Einsicht in die Policies ist unter [2] möglich.<br />
