[cabfpub] RFC5280-related Ballot - For Discussion

[Ben Wilson]

All,



I’ve posted the proposal to the PKIX list and haven’t heard sufficient opposition on that list, IMHO, that would merit holding up this proposed revision to the Baseline Requirements.  I need two endorsers for a ballot.



Thanks,



Ben

For those who want to understand why the IETF rejected this change, the thread begins at



https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/pkix/MJwKL1lqRDuEAhqQ1Ydb5eWBSIs/?qid=ace7ed4844045716922706d6a80b0747



You can also see https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/376/ and the discussion at https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/pkix/current/msg02361.html



This was reviewed prior to the production of 5280 - that is, it was known at the time 5280 was produced, and was decided not to adopt - see https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/pkix/current/msg02357.html and https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/pkix/current/msg02336.html

   Here is a redlined version of sections 7.1.4.2.1 and 7.1.4.2.2 of the Baseline Requirements which proposes amendments to the way the Baseline Requirements handle the maximum length for subjectAltName, commonName and organizationName and also clarifies the use of the underscore character.
