The University of Missouri is in process of switching to Comodo via InCommon.  No warnings or red flags yet as we 
haven't switched but feel free to ping me again in a few months.

Subject: [SECURITY] Certificate vendors

We are currently using Thawte for all our certificates and Thawte is pretty pricey.  Comodo's pricing, by comparison, 
seems almost to good to be true.  Is anybody using Comodo for their SSL certificates and have you anything particularly 
positive to say or, and more to the point, any warnings or red flags?

Thanks,
