[lp-ca-on] NETFILE certified freedom

[Stephen Paul Weber]

Looking at 
<http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/esrvc-srvce/tx/ndvdls/netfile-impotnet/menu-eng.html> 
I see that there are a few requirements, but it looks doable.  Of course, a 
given deployment of the software would need to be ceritified by the CRA and 
have credentials for their backend, but this does not cause a serious issue 
for producing free filing software.

Based on what we talked about in the mumble meeting, and previously on-list, 
it seems like the easiest first step would be to produce a libre web 
service, and get it certified, where people upload a digital T1 (in some 
format -- perhaps based on the format we need to send the CRA APIs, or some 
nice format or whatever).  And then the software files this digital T1 for 
the user.  Then anyone can write software that generates this standard 
format that we accept, etc.
