Hi Bruce
here are my comments on this version
1. There is a potential problem with the scope/Introduction of the
document, since it only covers trust between the browser and the
subscriber, when what really matters is trust between the RP and the
subscriber. How is this gap to be covered?
2. Section 2.1. 3rd para insert may -> The root store provide "may"
require the root CA....
Rationale. If the root store provider can verify a CA simply because it
has been accepted by another root store provider, as per the second
paragraph, then conversely, it may not require it to be annually audited
but may remove it only when the other root store provider removes it.
3. Section 2.3 insert may -> The subscriber may identify...
Rationale. This more accurately reflects the current situation today,
doesn't it?
4. Section 3.2.3. A third party RA is not identified in a CA certificate
as anything, is it?. Remove "as an issuing CA" as this implies it is
identified as something else.
5. What is the relevance of section 3.3.1? If a third party is
subcontracted to a party to do work on its behalf, then the party is
ultimately responsible for this and there is no need to mention it.
6. Section 5.2. Non-unique names. It is unclear whether non-unique names
refers to Internet wide unique names, or only to CA wide unique names.
Be explicit.
regards
David
