EFF Certificate Authority - Free SSLs! - Lets Encrypt

Its an open protocol for requesting certificates. Its quite nice actually, currently working on a PHP client.

Does this means that we will be able to get the certificate and install it by ourselves or will the install software be mandatory ?

@SentinelTower Well if you trust someone else to run the certificate generation client they could do it for you, but in all likelihood the EFF may offer a web interface or something in addition to the open protocol for requesting certificates.

Being able to submit our CSR via a web interface would be neat while having to run their client sounds like a no-go for me
