I did, but it is far from trivial to do right....
And even then the mess in certificate fields and the non-standard way
all kinds of implementations are done over various services sometimes
drives me insane.....

Anyway, if your needs are fairly simple (1-2 level CA + signing
certificates) I can definitly recommend xca:
http://xca.sourceforge.net/

I has reasonable documentation and a nice GUI. It also produces well
defined certificates and most importantly has the ability to revoke
certificates that you have issued...

If you stick it's database into a VCS you can share the work.
