<p class="line874">Section 6.1.7 of the Baseline Requirements
states that the Root CA Private Keys MUST NOT be used to
sign end-entity certificates, with some exceptions. It is
unclear if this exception list includes end-entity
certificates with EKU id-kp-timeStamping. This ballot
attempts to clarify two things: <o:p></o:p></p>

1024-bit RSA Subscriber Certificates and testing products
with Certificates issued by a Root.
