[cabfpub] givenName and surname revived

IMO - The OIDS should be set based on the section under which validation occurred, not whether the organization field contains the entities name.

Bonjour, 

If the person’s name information is placed in the organizationName attribute, it doesn’t mean the certificate is « Organization Validated », it’s still «   Identity Validated ».

Placing the person’s name in the O attribute is a bad tradeoff on my opinion, because it brings confusion. This thread also collides with the one about omitting ST/L when there’s a country-level registry of corporations.

Cordialement,

Erwann Abalea

Hi Jeremy,

Would like some clarification. On the call yesterday, it was said that IV certificates were not defined, so this ballot will help resolve this.

Per 7.1.4.2.2 b, the current BRs allow givenName and surname to be included in the organizationName field. Will this still be allowed? If so, what would the certificate type be? OV or IV? I would prefer that these be OV certificates.

If we do make the changes and the CAs have to meet Microsoft’s requirement to put a DV, OV, or IV certificate policy in the certificate, I think we should clearly define each certificate type.

Also, the stateOrProvinceName field appears to currently have an issue as it does not have any language to address the case where there is no state or province in the address.

Thanks, Bruce.
