I would like to propose a change to cover a current gap in the BRs.  Right now 
there is no clear link from content in the certificate to the date of issuance 
of the certificate.  I would propose the following change to the BR.  Note that 
this intentionally only covers Subscriber (End-entity) certificates, not CA 
certificates.

What do others think?

Definitions:
(new) Issuance Date: The latest of the notBefore value of a certificate and the 
time value of any cryptographically signed timestamps included in a certificate

(modified) Validity Period: The period of time measured from the Issuance Date 
of a Certificate is issued until the Expiry Date of a Certificate.

(new) 7.1.2.3(g) Issuance Date
The Issuance Date of the certificate must be no more than 24 hours from (either 
before or after) the date when the CA signed the certificate.

Thanks,
Peter
