In a recent discussion [1] we decided to clarify the audit requirements for
new subordinate CA certificates. I’ve  drafted a change that requires the
new certificate to appear in the next periodic audits and in the CP/CPS
prior to issuance:

https://github.com/mozilla/pkipolicy/commit/09867ef4a0db3b1cab162930c0326c84d272ec10

We also discussed requiring root key generation ceremony (RKGC) audit
reports, but I have since realized that the BRs (section 6.1.1.1) only
require these audit reports for new root certificates. I’m not convinced
that we should begin requiring an auditor’s report every time a new
subordinate CA certificate is created.

I would appreciate everyone's comments on this proposed change.
