<p class="MsoNormal">CA Community, I wanted to provide you with Microsoft’s position on CAA algorithms to add to what has already been posted by Google Chrome and Mozilla.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Given that CAA is now mandatory and ballot 214 is currently in voting period, Microsoft will give immediate dispensation for CAs to issue certificates following the algorithm specified in either RFC 6844 or RFC 6844 as amended by Erratum
5065 when performing the mandatory pre-issuance CAA checks. If Baseline Requirements are updated to require Erratum 5065 algorithm then CAs will be expected to transition to this updated algorithm within a reasonable amount of time which may be specified
by a follow on ballot to 214 in the CAB Forum. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
