Melinda,

I have complained for a long time (see my messages in June of 2014) that 6962-bis failed to define mis-issuance. Thus you ought not surprised that I have raised this issue yet again, since 6962-bis has never been revised to address this serious omission.

If 6962-bis is not going to have to wait for the threat model to be
published, then, yes, a cite of that doc won't work. However, using
the definitions of mis-issuance from that doc, will work. Failing to
define mis-issuance in 6962-bis makes it seriously deficient and
provides a basis for it not being approved by the IESG, IMHO.

I was quite surprised to see this come through given that
we've said repeatedly that the threat document isn't going
to block the -bis document moving forward.  A better
approach might be to propose text for the -bis draft.

#116: ned definition for mis-issuance

  the document does not include a definition for misissuance [sic], even
  though this is the central motivation of CT.  The doc should use the
  definition from the threat/attacks model, cite that document, and change
  the spelling to “mis-issuance”  “mis-issue”, “mis-issued”, etc.)
