Dear IETF Community - For the past 7 years, the IETF has been digitally signing all Internet-Drafts which we receive, to mark these specific drafts as being authentic, and being received by the IETF through the normal Internet-Draft submission process.
We were recently informed that the Certificate Authority which formerly provided our certificates was no longer able to provide them to us. We have therefore located a new provider, Digicert, who has kindly donated new certificates to the IETF for this purpose. Because we are using a new provider, it is necessary for us to update our certificate verification bundle. The certificates needed to validate the new certificates have been added to the bundle, and the older ones are preserved for validation of the previous signatures. The overall Internet-Draft signing process is available on our website at https://www.ietf.org/standards/ids/idsignatures/ . Thank you for your patience with this change. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Digicert for their kind and very appreciated donation to the IETF. If there are any questions, please contact Russ Housley or Glen Barney, and we will assist you.
