The title is misleading. StartCom is asking for its fee for revoking, that's all. Not making revocation free of cost isn't refusal to reissue cert.
With startcom you cannot request a cert for the same (sub)domain until the current certificate expires in 2 weeks or less
But you CAN revoke the current one.
for which you pay dearly.
Yes, 25 USD. I wasn't arguing that, though. My point was: the original title to the tune of "StartCom is refusing to reissue certs" was misleading.
Yes, you're right. But that makes it far worse!
