> The published Guidelines and Requirements all have the following
> statement on the cover page:
>
> "Verbatim copying and distribution of this entire document is
> permitted in any medium without royalty, provided this notice is
> preserved"
>
> This would, on its face, appear to not allow incorporation of the
> requirements into other documents, such as the Certificate Policies of
> individual CAs.  Is this the intent of the statement?  If so, how do
> CAs who incorporate the requirements into their CP get a license to do
> so?
>
> Thanks,
> Peter
