https://github.com/cabforum/smime/issues/237</a>. Following discussion it was agreed that suspension be clarified as specifically as certificateHold. Adriano Santoni noted that it was unclear if suspension was even supported by email clients and perhaps should
be considered for removal in future.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">Stephen noted that the ballot would soon move ahead with endorsers including Martijn Katerbarg of Sectigo and Roman Fischer of SwissSign.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">The group had a discussion of SC ballots for relevance to the SMCWG, noting that if the MPV ballot is successful a review may be required for the S/MIME BR.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">Stephen noted that the server certificate working group is working towards automatically distributing audio recordings of meetings to participants, which may be extended to the SMCWG as well. There was no objection.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">Stephen noted that the group would soon discuss the possible deprecation of the Legacy profiles and again asked Certificate Issuers to review items that presented obstacles to moving to the Multipurpose or Strict
profiles. He noted that there were concerns on the ability of ERAs to parse out giveName and surname as separate Subject attributes, and shorter certificate validity may be an issue for implementations using smartcards.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">Stephen asked if using CCADB to poll Certificate Issuers regarding their S/MIME BR profiles would present a by-laws/anticompetitive issue?<o:p></o:p></p>
