I updated https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA/Revocation_Reasons#Communication_to_Subscribers to add a sub-bullet under affiliationChanged: " This option does not need to be made available by CAs who only issue DV certificates that do not include any Subject Identity information."

Thanks,
Kathleen

"Subject's Name" would refer to the Organization Name.  We can clarify that more.

        I think it would be appropriate to shield the
        "affiliationChanged" reason code from appearing in your CRLs
        when you only issue DV certificates, and they don't include
        Subject Identity Information.


    We intend to specify the same reasonCodes in both CRLs and OCSP
    responses. The most straightforward choice would be for us to
    reject subscriber revocation requests that specify
    "affiliationChanged", requiring the subscriber to choose a more
    correct reasonCode. A second choice would be to accept those
    subscriber revocation requests but silently change them to
    "unspecified" before writing to our storage.

          - "subject's name" is not totally clear to me. From context
        it seems like it means a subset of "subject identity
        information" (specifically the Organization field), but that
        would be redundant. Alternatively, it could refer to the
        entire Subject field (which is encoded as an X.501 Name), but
        then "subject identity information" would be a subset of
        "name" and it would be redundant in the other direction.

        Yes.  We should have been more clear that Subject Identity
        Information" refers to the definition in the BRs.  We can make
        this clearer in the guidance.


    Sounds good! What about "subject's name" - what does that refer to?
