[Servercert-wg] [EXTERNAL] Discussion Period Begins: Ballot SC-061: New CRL Entries must have a Revocation Reason Code

[Bruce Morton]

Hi Ben,

The reference should work as it will tie the CRL extension section to the revocation reason section; however, it would still seem odd that one section prohibits 2 reason codes and another section approves reason codes. It would seem to be better form to state all the CRL extension requirements in the CRL extension section.

Bruce.

Hi Bruce,

What if this line from section 7.2.2 were modified " If a `reasonCode` CRL entry extension is present, the `CRLReason` MUST indicate the most appropriate reason for revocation of the certificate, as defined by the CA within its CP/CPS."?

It could say, "For Subscriber Certificates, if a `reasonCode` CRL entry extension is present, the `CRLReason` MUST indicate the most appropriate reason for revocation of the certificate, as set forth in section 4.9.1.1 defined by the CA within its CP/CPS."?

Hi Ben,

I think it would be best if the text regarding “Only the following CRLReasons MAY be present in the CRL `reasonCode` extension” be in section “7.2.2 CRL and CRL entry extensions”. This is the section which I would check and already discusses reasonCodes and prohibits reasons 0 and 6.


Thanks, Bruce.
