[Servercert-wg] Section 7.1.5 as required by RFC 3647 is no longer in the TLS BRs

[Inigo Barreira]

Yes, in the already published version 2.0.2, the section 7.1.5 is included. This section is empty as many other sections in the TLS BRs, for example, 7.1.7, 7.1.8 and 7.1.9, which are just right after.

Sure.

Indeed, the cleanup ballot brings back the number 7.1.5 but the section is empty, despite the real information being already included in other sections of the BRs.

Hopefully we can add pointers to the right name constraints language. Does that make sense?

Dear Members,

While taking another pass at reviewing the new certificate profiles introduced in ballot SC62, I realized that there is some deviation from the RFC 3647 structure that the BRs should maintain to help alignment of CA CP/CPS documents.

This is the structure defined by RFC 3647 for section 7:

   7.  CERTIFICATE, CRL, AND OCSP PROFILES

   7.1  Certificate profile

   7.1.1  Version number(s)

   7.1.2  Certificate extensions

   7.1.3  Algorithm object identifiers

   7.1.4  Name forms

   7.1.5  Name constraints

   7.1.6  Certificate policy object identifier

   7.1.7  Usage of Policy Constraints extension

   7.1.8  Policy qualifiers syntax and semantics

   7.1.9  Processing semantics for the critical Certificate Policies

Section 7.1.5 does not exist anymore. The BRs have the name constraints information in 7.1.2.5.2, 7.1.2.10.8. I believe that, at a minimum, we should re-introduce 7.1.5 and point to other subsections of 7.1.2 for consistency with RFC 3647.

Thoughts?
Dimitris.
