[Servercert-wg] Replacement for Method 10

As an early recommendation, how does something like this sound for a
replacement to Method 10?

 

Confirming the Applicant's control over a FQDN by validating domain control
of the FQDN using TLS as specified in this specific IETF specification and
version:  https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-acme-tls-alpn-05 

Note: Once the FQDN has been validated using this method, the CA MAY also
issue Certificates for other FQDNs that end with all the labels of the
validated FQDN.  This method is suitable for validating Wildcard Domain
Names.

 

According to Let's Encrypt, we should be able to EOL current method 10 by
June 1 as they have transitioned to this new method at least 90 days prior
to this date.  We can also set the EOL date for Method 10 as part of this
ballot.

 

Apparently we need to wait until 05 version is final.  When do we expect
that to happen?

 

Doug
