The purpose was to explain more about the reason for QWACs and how they are supposed to work. The regulation goes into effect on July 1, 2016. Dean said it was a response to the Diginotar and other incidents. QWACs can only be issued by Qualified CAs but there is no requirement to use or buy them. Dean and Ryan were on a panel along with representatives from Austria and Luxembourg. There are a number of controversial items which are still being clarified namely the Trusted Status List (TSL) and potential browser UI changes. Presentations from the meeting will made public soon. Kirk asked why this was happening and what the perceived benefits are to this legislation. Ryan said the certs are similar to EV but with the backing of the EU and that the legislation regulates all CAs. He also said that it would introduce another UI which users would have to be conditioned to look for. And if they were in some way harmed, the liability would fall in the CA. Moudrick asked if the requirements for EV and QWACs were the same. Andrew said there were incompatible standards between the 2 requirements. For example, QWACs would not automatically get EV treatment. A Qualified CA can put in a Qualified OID but may not be able to assert the EV OID. This needs to be reconciled. Peter asked if there was an action for the CA/B forum to work closer with eIDAS. Ryan said there was some confusion among eIDAS members as to what CAs had to comply with as many thought it was just the CA/B Forum BRs. This misperception was corrected at the meeting. A discussion on the trust list ensued, how it could work, the obstacles to making it work, etc. It’s still a fluid situation. Dean said that more meetings are likely and encouraged others to attend. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>9.<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>PAG/IPR Status: Dean said that the IPR agreements are now due but quite a few members have not submitted them yet. Peter said the ballot said those that haven’t signed should be “suspended” but it’s not clear what that means. Dean said we would have to remove their wiki access, suspend from public list access, remove voting privileges, etc. which is a bunch of work vs. just waiting another week for the agreements to come in. A discussion continued and it was decided to give people 2 more weeks to comply. On a related topic, Cisco had raised an issue with the IPR agreement which relates to undisclosed (unpublished) patents which need to be disclosed. Cisco wants to insure trade secrets and IPR are secure before something has been patented. Hence they feel there is a problem with the language. Josh from Cisco said unpublished patent applications are part of the company’s IP strategy. The current IPR says that you must disclose the entirety of an unpublished patent as it relates to an essential claim and there is concern on their part about that. Discussion will continue in the PAG to see if that language can be revised. Peter said that Cisco signed the current IPR.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>10.<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>Validation WG Update: No further updates<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>11.<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>Code Signing WG Update: No update.
