From an off-list discussion: Can someone who knows more about how these CDNs
handle certs provide a brief summary for the list? From looking at Sybil
certs grabbed from a few CDN sites there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or
reason to them. Also, how and under what conditions can you get access to the
CDN as an insider? I'd found ads like
http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=873555, "Resell the Edgecast
CDN and make a killing!", which seem to imply that anyone with a chequebook
can play.
Peter.
