I don't know what the calculus will be for Google's trust of Entrust-issued
BIMI certificates, but I am pretty sure that they won't be announcing that
policy on MDSP—you could ask in a Google forum of some kind, but I think
most likely you just have to wait for the announcement if/when it comes.

(I personally think Entrust will not keep the BIMI business around by
itself even if the root somehow stays trusted, but it's possible they were
completely compliant with all BIMI-related requirements!)
