I don't think anyone is home:

https://forum.startcom.org/viewforum.php?f=8

After I saw the state of their forums/community I ran, not walked, away from their service. Which is rather scary considering they are a trusted CA...

I think really the only reasonable thing to do is pay $15/yr for any site that other people will use and use your own CA for your personal projects.

Getting CA certs into Android however is whole other issue...
