Thawte Certificate Expiry

Thawte just phoned to explain expiry of certificates.

You can buy a 1 or 2 year certificate. It will let you sign code for 1
or 2 years.

How long does the signed code remain valid? YOU CHOOSE. You can
choose anything up to 10 years, and possibly beyond.

However, since jarsigner.exe has no -expiry option, I don't know just
how you would specify the expiry limit.
