Subject: [EXTERNAL][cabfpub] Ballot 217: Sunset RFC 2527

 

Ballot 217: Sunset RFC 2527

 

Purpose of Ballot: The Baseline Requirements and Extended Validation Guidelines 
require that CA's disclosures of the Certificate Policy and/or Certification 
Practice Statements include all of the material required by either RFC 2527 or 
RFC 3647 and structured in accordance with RFC 2527 or RFC 3647.

 

RFC 2527 is an obsolete RFC, published in 1999, and replaced by RFC 3647 in 
2003. This sunsets the use of RFC 2527, ensuring that CAs' disclosures will 
follow a consistent pattern across the industry, facilitating easier review by 
Subscribers, Browsers, and the broader community. Based upon Member feedback, 6 
months is provided for CAs to review and update their CP/CPS documents.

 

This motion aligns the language to be consistent between the BRs and the EVGs. 
For the benefit of minimal changes, this aligns the existing language through 
duplication, rather than attempting to incorporate the BRs by reference. 

 

The following motion has been proposed by Ryan Sleevi of Google and endorsed by 
Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and Dimitris Zacharopoulos of HARICA.

business practices to the extent required by the CA's selected audit scheme 
(see Section 8.1). The disclosures MUST include all the material required by 
RFC 2527 or RFC 3647, and MUST be structured in accordance with either RFC 2527 
or RFC 3647. "

WebTrust for CAs and ETSI TS 102 042 and ETSI EN 319 411-1.  The disclosures
