Personally I suspect there are too many variables for a general attestation, but also suspect your opinion will be infinitely more informed than mine. ;-) I have no idea on that currently. In general attestations / certifications are drive by someone who needs them (e.g. a vendor selling a product that requires an attestation for specific customers). The Project itself doesn't really do any of those directly. -- John Baldwin
