[cabfpub] Repost by text mode:An appliacnt in Direct-controlled municipality (Special municipality ) or in small countries witho ut State/Province with EVGL Version 1.6.0 section 9.2.5

[realsky(CHT)]

    I repost this discussion to solve format problem. I sent by HTML mode by Microsoft Outlook 2010 in office computer before, but other representive of CP working group suugested me to use text mode to prevent some code appeared in other email client software. 

    In CP working group call two weeks ago, I have pointed out a question about an entity in Special municipality with EVGL version 1.6.0  section 9.2.5. I think we can discuss in CP working group call or discussion in the mailing list. 

  In Section 9.25, the jurisdiction for the applicable Incorporating Agency or Registration Agency at the locality level MUST include the country and state or province information, where the state or province regulates the registration of the entities at the locality level, as well as the locality information. Country information MUST be specified using the applicable ISO country code. State or province or locality information (where applicable) for the Subject’s Jurisdiction of Incorporation or Registration MUST be specified using the full name of the applicable jurisdiction.

  Let us take a business entity such as “ABC store” in Taipei city as an example. Taipei city is a special municipality (Direct-controlled municipality), so the Subject DN will be


CN =ABC Store's FQDN
O = ABC Store
L = Taipei City
C = TW
PostalCode = 10001
STREET = ABC Store's street Address
SERIALNUMBER = ABC Store's uniform number of tax status
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.1 = Taipei City
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.2 = 
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.3 = TW
2.5.4.15 = Business entity

  As the rank of Taipei City, in current law and EVGL, I don’t know how to give the value for 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.2 (jurisdictionStateOrProvinceName) attribute.

  Or could we use 

CN =ABC Store's FQDN
O = ABC Store
L = Taipei City
C = TW
PostalCode = 10001
STREET = ABC Store's street Address
SERIALNUMBER = ABC Store's uniform number of tax status
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.1 = Taipei City
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.3 = TW
2.5.4.15 = Business entity

  Is it acceptable by browser?


   In  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-controlled_municipality, there are 11 countries have Direct-controlled municipalities. I doubt there will be the same problem. 
   More information can be find in  https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%9B%B4%E8%BE%96%E5%B8%82, but they were written in traditional Chinese, may be you could use Google online translation.

The issue will also appears in small countries without State/Province like Taiwan and Singapore, etc. 

   I think the problem should be considered with the relief of BR section 7.1.4.2.2. (Subject Distinguished Name Fields ) d/e together. 

   Full paragraph of current EVGL Version 1.6.0 are as below: 

9.2.5. Subject Jurisdiction of Incorporation or Registration Field
