In the above example, streetAddress not only contains a street name
and house number, but other info as well, including the locality
(already specified in the separate localityName attribute) and the
country (already specified in the separate countryName attribute),
and a postal code that should probably be moved elsewhere (e.g. in
the specific postalCode attribute, if used).<br class="">

It is quite obvious, in the above example, that the address
information are consistent, overall. The question I am asking is: is
this way of populating streetAddress okay, from a compliance point
of view?<br class="">
<br class="">
Does anybody think that such a certificate should be regarded as
non-conformant to the BRs ?<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><br class=""></div><div>It’s not ‘non-conformant’, exactly; the word I would use is ‘wrong’.
