These are all things the auditors control, not necessarily CAs.  Enacting 
something like this would require WebTrust and ETSI buy-in to update the 
templates and information. If you said the CA must clearly indicate in their 
submission that X, Y, and Z must happen, then it makes more sense (as the CA is 
the one communicating with Mozilla, not the auditor).

Subject: Audit report timing

The current CA policy does not specify when audit reports are due to Mozilla 
relative to the end date of the audit period.  It only says that CAs much 
provide the reports to Mozilla within 30 days of receiving the report from 
their auditor.

For the next version of the CA policy, I suggest that this be remedied.  I 
propose the following revised requirements:

- All audit reports must clearly state whether they are for a period of time or 
point in time.
- All audit reports that cover a period of time must list the start date and 
end date of the period
- All audit reports that are for a point in time must list the point in time 
date
- All audit reports must separately include the date the report was issued 
(which will necessarily be after the end date or point in time
date)
- All audit reports must be provided to Mozilla within three months of the 
point in time date or the end date of the period

I think that all of these are reasonable and help to ensure that compliance is 
appropriately monitored.

Thanks,
Peter
