According to the "fedora-packager-setup" script, the sources for these 
two certificates are:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/fedora-server-ca.cert
and
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/fedora-upload-ca.cert
respectively.

Does anybody else see the horizontal scrollbar when opening these 
certificates' links in a browser? IOW, several first lines in both 
certificates are too long, because of extra spaces at the end-of-line. 
Try, fe.:

sed 's/$/<NL>/' .fedora-server-ca.cert

My result is:

Perhaps the binary data (incapsulated in the base64 form) is OK, but the 
fact that there are such strange "in general" and strange "invisible" 
garbage in the security-sensitive data causes people at least to ask 
about it...
