That is a very valid point. Well since I do not have a concrete proposal it is hard to say at this point if a CA should be kicked out for non-conformance to a given critera. With that said today there are over 20 SHOULDs in the BRs and I can imagine failure to meet those should would be considered in aggregate when looking at a distrust event. If nothing else addressing any potential ambiguity would be useful. > > I disagree on that venue suggestion, since here we can actually have > widespread public participation.
