Subject: [Servercert-wg] [Voting Period Begins]: SC65: Convert EVGs into RFC
3647 format v2

 

Summary: 

The Extended Validation Certificates guidelines (EVGs) were developed and
written in a specific format. Since then, the RFC 3647 has been the basis
(and the de-facto standard) for the CA/Browser Forum to develop other
documents.

This ballot aims to update the EVGs to follow the RFC 3647 format without
changing any content, just moving current sections to those defined in the
RFC 3647. There are no normative requirements changes.

This change also affects the Baseline Requirements for TSL certificates
(BRs) which needs to point to the new sections of the EVGs. Both documents
will be updated according to the latest version published.

This ballot is proposed by Iñigo Barreira (Sectigo) and endorsed by Pedro
Fuentes (OISTE) and Ben Wilson (Mozilla).

--- Motion Begins ---

This ballot modifies the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and
Management of Publicly-Trusted TLS Certificates" ("TLS Baseline
Requirements"), based on Version 2.0.2 and the “Guidelines for the Issuance
and Management of Extended Validation Certificates” (EVGs) based on Version
1.8.0. 

MODIFY the TLS EVGs and BRs as specified in the following Redline:
