While well-intentioned, I don't think this is really a reasonable thing to ask/expect. If they had contractual requirements on resellers, it just means you'd have new entities spring up that are equivalent to resellers without the requirements. Would we similarly require that hosting providers don't store the private keys? It's the same conceptual issue. _______________________________________________ dev-security-policy mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security-policy
