Can one of our European colleagues comment about Qualified certs? I seem to recall that was the sticky point when we last discussed this.

You must be joking, aren't you? :-)

Sorry, I omitted a qualifier: "...that do not conform to the BRs (e.g. are not technically constrained or publicly audited)."

In other words, require the revocation of CA certificates that do not comply with the BRs, if issued by a CA for which the BRs apply. Again, this should already be the case.

Ah, that's something else :-)

Thanks for confirming.
