<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Background:<o:p></o:p></b></p>

“actively issue certificates to Web servers…”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Section 2.1(b) of the bylaws lists the
items needed in a membership application by CAs. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But that section does not ask the CA
applicant to provide a 3<sup>rd</sup> party website where the
CA/B Forum can validate that they are actively issuing certs
to web servers. We do however ask the applicant this
question, after they have submitted their application. It
would be helpful to have this in the bylaws so we don’t have
to go back and ask every time.<o:p></o:p></p>
