Hi Martijn, Good point! I'm actually going to take this in a slightly different direction, though: replacing "shall be" with "is". Since this is a definition rather than a standalone requirement, I think phrasing it as a simple statement of truth is even clearer.
The PR has been updated and the updated redline is at https://github.com/cabforum/servercert/compare/90a98dc7c1131eaab01af411968aa7330d315b9b...510e130166d948a7c00fb29e355b768ead6f0bbe Thanks!
