Oh just posted about this!

What about the POP? As in, is this in any other place?

[asraa]

Not in any other place, but the POP has already been removed from the repository subfolder.
#776

Just wanted to check removing it here is intentional! So we will recreate the POP later on and store it elsewhere I assume?

Hmmmmmmmm... I'm not sure I totally understand - the POP was already verified when the delegation was merged as a PR into this repository - it doesn't belong in the TUF repo itself. The history of it is in the PRs though.

You may want to comment on this: #775

If we solve it with option (2) from that, then it can stay in a subfolder "delegation_pops" adjacent to the TUF repo, like we do with keys holding the HSM cert info.

Ah, I was thinking the POP would be checked periodically so it'd need to be persisted.
