RFC 3647 says that Section 4.9.10 is meant to place requirements on relying parties, not on CAs, which explains much of the confusion.</div><div><br></div><div>The result is a total rearrangement of Sections 4.9.9 and 4.9.10. This ballot empties 4.9.10, moves all of its requirements into 4.9.9, and arranges them into three sections:</div><div>- A few definitions (which apply only in this section);</div><div>- Requirements which apply to OCSP Responders whose URLs are found in the AIA OCSP field of certificates; and</div><div>- Requirements which apply to all OCSP Responses, regardless of how it was queried.</div><div><br></div><div>The PR representing this ballot is here: <a href="https://github.com/cabforum/servercert/pull/535" target="_blank">https://github.com/cabforum/servercert/pull/535</a></div><div><br></div><div>Please let me know if you have any comments or suggested changes on the GitHub PR, and please let me know if you'd be willing to endorse.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Aaron</div></div>
