Hi Ben,

I think that would be great. I assume you will be leading this session.

I think it's a great opportunity for CAs with past experience on delayed 
revocations to share some insight about specific challenges in the 
sectors you listed, and possibly add some that are missing.

FYI, public evidence for delayed revocation incidents (open and closed, 
based on specific tags) is available in this link 
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?f1=OP&f4=CP&v2=ca-compliance&f2=status_whiteboard&o2=allwordssubstr&component=CA%20Certificate%20Compliance&query_format=advanced&list_id=17029100&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=RESOLVED&v3=delayed-revocation%20leaf-revocation-delay&resolution=---&resolution=FIXED&resolution=INVALID&resolution=WONTFIX&resolution=DUPLICATE&resolution=WORKSFORME&o3=anywordssubstr&f3=status_whiteboard>.

Although you mentioned that this affects the BR section 4.9.1, this 
topic affects all Working Groups because all the WG BRs have a section 
4.9.1 that is pretty much similar with the TLS BRs. With that said, I 
would like to ask if Members have any objections for discussing this 
topic as part of the Forum plenary.


Thank you,
Dimitris
CA/B Forum Chair
