Hello,

unfortunately probably due to no mention of the public meetings in the
official DevConf schedule - they were mentioned only on a separate page
in the DevConf brochure - there was only a single non-redhatter that
appeared at the meeting.

We had some informal discussion with him and the redhatters that were
present. The conclusion was that our team should probably focus more on
the crypto libraries support for the stapled extensions and using the
trust store directly via the p11-kit-trust PKCS#11 module and not
through the extracted certificate lists - namely OpenSSL lacks this
support and probably should be the first priority to fix before any
development of high-level trust management application/API should
start.

No matter how far down the wrong road you've gone, turn back.
