This is extremely nitpicky and in the weeds, so excuse me, but ...

It has been pointed out internally that the draft 2.9 Mozilla policy includes a 
normative reference in section 3.1.4 to CCADB policy section 5.1, without 
specifying a version.

The has the practical effect of meaning that CCADB Policy updates to section 
5.1 could happen at any time, and CAs are expected to comply immediately with 
no transition period.  This seems extremely dangerous, unintended, and likely 
to end badly.

I'm not sure what the best fix is.  Requirements that reference external 
documents that can change at any time are always very tricky to handle in a 
good way.
