Thanks to the group for ploughing through this. * There is now a "Root CA Operator", and a "Subordinate CA", both of which are organizations. This is particularly clear in the definition of "Certification Authority", where it says: > The term applies equally to Root CA Operators and Subordinate CAs. Is there a reason why these two terms were not made linguistically parallel - i.e. either "Root CA" and "Subordinate CA", or "Root CA Operator" and "Subordinate CA Operator"? * 6.2.6: Some but not all instances of the word "Issuing" have been removed. Is that intentional? > I did want to highlight one of the proposed changes that is not > related to "CA" terminology. That proposed change is in Section > 4.9.10. This change seems fine to me.
