I can understand your desire to understand what "real CAs" do, but that's not at all aligned with what is required, which is the conversation that matters - as are the reasons for revocation. The simple answer is "It doesn't matter, because they're not required to, so stop trying to make it seem like they are" - and the threads all demonstrate the various flaws with the argument being made/advocated :) While I hope it is well-intentioned questioning, the answer is irrelevant to any of the discussions. _______________________________________________ dev-security-policy mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security-policy
