I've been asked if the section 5.1.1 restrictions on SHA-1 issuance apply
to timestamping CAs. Specifically, does Mozilla policy apply to the
issuance of a SHA-1 CA certificate asserting only the timestamping EKU and
chaining to a root in our program? Because this certificate is not in scope
for our policy as defined in section 1.1, I do not believe that this would
be a violation of the policy. And because the CA would be in control of the
entire contents of the certificate, I also do not believe that this action
would create an unacceptable risk.

I would appreciate everyone's input on this interpretation of our policy.
