I think what scares people the most is about the security, meaning
that if the cert is somewhat community-made how they keep the
questions not public,
I guess part of the solution was already explained in which companies
using a software are the ones making the standard (with users having
to log in).

Probably other questions have to do with the method to take the exams,
actually once the exam is online (no controlled environment, which is
the way most companies do it I guess) no matter what we do people can
reveal the questions just by taking pictures or video of the screen.

ANother question was about who oversees the process, probably about
the organization of all this.

Basically what we need is some guidance about all of it ;)
