<p class="MsoNormal">Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
Here's an updated version with Peter's tweak to allow CN to be the same if the Name is different, and some clarifications requested by Kirk as to the scope of applicability time-wise.<br>
<br>
Can I get a couple of endorsers?<br>

<b>Ballot XXX - Require commonName in Root and Intermediate Certificates</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto"><b>Purpose of Ballot: </b>Section 7.1.4.3 of the BRs, which deals with Subject Information for Subordinate CA Certificates, currently requires only that all information in a Subordinate CA Certificate is
accurate; it does not say what information is required. Some of the necessary information is required elsewhere in the BRs, but it is not complete - commonName is missing. If commonName is omitted, DN clashes can more easily occur. So this motion centralises
that information in the obvious place, and adds a commonName requirement.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto">The following motion has been proposed by Gervase Markham of Mozilla and endorsed by XXX of XXX and XXX of XXX:<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto">-- MOTION BEGINS --<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
<b><u>Section 1</u></b> <o:p></o:p></p>
<pre>Make the following changes to the Baseline Requirements:<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>* Delete 7.1.2.1 (e), which currently defines the Subject Information required in a Root CA Certificate.<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>* Delete 7.1.2.2 (h), which currently defines the Subject Information required in a Subordinate CA Certificate.<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>* Rename section 7.1.4.2, currently titled "Subject Information", to "Subject Information - Subscriber Certificates".<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>* Rename section 7.1.4.3, currently titled "Subject Information - Subordinate CA Certificates" to "Subject Information - Root Certificates and Subordinate CA Certificates".<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>* Based on the style used in 7.1.4.2.2 and the content from the now-deleted 7.1.2.1 (e) and 7.1.2.2 (h), add the following section 7.1.4.3.1:<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>7.1.4.3.1 Subject Distinguished Name Fields<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>Certificate Field: subject:commonName (OID 2.5.4.3)<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>Required/Optional: Required<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>Contents: This field MUST be present and the contents MUST be an identifier <o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>for the certificate such that the certificate's Name is unique across all <o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>certificates issued by the issuing certificate.<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>b. Certificate Field: subject:organizationName (OID 2.5.4.10)<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>Required/Optional: Required<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>Contents: This field MUST be present and the contents MUST contain<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>either the Subject CA’s name or DBA as verified under Section 3.2.2.2.<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>The CA may include information in this field that differs slightly from<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>the verified name, such as common variations or abbreviations, provided<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>that the CA documents the difference and any abbreviations used are<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>locally accepted abbreviations; e.g., if the official record shows<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>“Company Name Incorporated”, the CA MAY use “Company Name Inc.” or<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>“Company Name”.<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>c. Certificate Field: subject:countryName (OID: 2.5.4.6)<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>Required/Optional: Required<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>Contents: This field MUST contain the two<span style="font-family:"Cambria Math",serif">‐</span>letter ISO 3166<span style="font-family:"Cambria Math",serif">‐</span>1 country code<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>for the country in which the CA’s place of business is located.<o:p></o:p></pre>

<pre><b><u>Section 2<o:p></o:p></u></b></pre>
<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre>
<pre>For the avoidance of doubt, these updated requirements apply only to root and intermediate certificates issued after the Effective Date of this ballot, which is upon approval (i.e. at the end of the IPR Review Period if no Exclusion Notices are filed). <o:p></o:p></pre>
