The archive link there goes to the google page.

Maybe it'd be a good idea to provide a link to an alternative archive
option? The list is archived mail-archive.com:

I'm not sure how a fair and just assessment of a CA, that primarily serves the 
Chinese market, can be had without any participation from any of its users.

Having equal right for the Chinese citizen to participate in the discussion of 
this technical matter not only benefits Mozilla, as more evidence of the 
technical strength of a CA can be presented, but also gives credibility and 
value to a Chinese CA, since a right process can be had by giving its users a 
way to audit its behavior.

Without a participation from the Chinese citizens, this supposedly free 
discussion group seems more like a privileged club, where only those who are 
either outside of China or have a VPN can join.

I look forward for Mozilla and CA organizations to work to build a better 
internet for everyone, by urging the Chinese government to stop censoring the 
internet, starting from this forum.



Most ways of accessing this "forum" are completely outside Google.

Google runs an online web app that can access 3rd party NTP "forums",
and you appear to be using that Google web app, but not everyone does.

If the Google web app is blocked in China, then the Chinese
participants (I have read messages from at least 2 people from China in
the past week here), are presumably not using the Google web app.

Enjoy

I believe this group is also accessible as a mailing list, with no
connection to Google at all.

https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security-policy

I hope that that allows people in China to participate, even if Google
services are inaccessible.  Please let me know if that's not the case.
