If I understand correctly, DANE (<http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung
/DANE-Bund-sichert-nach-Mail-Transport-auch-Webservice-mittels-DANE-
ab-2215929.html>, <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS-
based_Authentication_of_Named_Entities>) would allow server owners to
publish their certificates with their DNS entries. This could -- if I
understand correctly -- replace the need for having certificates signed by
a CA, which is always expensive and cumbersome.
