    The EUGridPMA have announced a new set of CA rpms. Upgrade for this release is considered to be *urgent* by the EGEE project. Based on this IGTF release, new CA RPMs have been packaged for EGEE. Please upgrade within 1 day. SAM started a 1 day timeout (including time needed to complete this CA release procedure). When timeout is over, SAM will throw critical errors on CA tests if old CAs are still detected. See the following page for more details about this new EGEE CA release : http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/lcg2CAlist.html
