I don't like the idea of not having my development certificates under control. They should be as secure as the production certs in my opinion. I use PHPKi for that purpose, it's not pretty but easy to setup and it runs in my own environment.

Indeed, this should be changed. The root is 2048 bits, but it's still unacceptable to issue 1024-bit certificates.

I will indeed update this. It is still a work in progress.

And now it has been updated. Any new CSRs generated will be 2048-bit.

What a quick fix, I'll bookmark this and watch what it becomes.

Pretty slick app, clean and easy. It has a ways to go to be adopted in a production environment if that is indeed the goal, but it's a good start.
