Update to Verified Method of Communication<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;color:windowtext">The EV Guidelines
Working Group has revisited Section 11.4 of the EV
Guidelines (Applicant’s Physical Existence) and has decided
that it is best to split it into two separate sections.
Section 11.4.1 would remain as is for "Address of
Applicant’s Place of Business." Section 11.4.2 would be
moved to its own section--a new 11.5, and all subsequent
section numbers in 11 would be renumbered accordingly. The
new Section 11.5 will focus on a verified means for
communicating with the organization to be named as the
subject in the certificate (to verify the authority of EV
roles and ensure that it was appropriately aware of the
certificate request).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
