Yes. It is. I requested the revocation of two StartSSL certificates due
to CVE-2014-0160 more than two weeks ago.
The revocation has not happened, probably due lack of payment methods I
provided so far.
IMHO: This violates mozillas polices (as quoted).

I think, there is an urgent need for a public statement from mozilla:
Being either:
-> An explanation, why StartSSL is still in the trust store although
violating or mozilla's policies.
OR
-> An explanation, that StartSSL is removed.

This statement is urgently needed - imho.

Thanks, Jan
