Hi Adriano,

My apologies! It was in the past discussed about limiting timestamping to 72 or 
75 months alltogether, then not requiring the SubCAs to be offline. The 
compromise here still allows up to 135 month timestamp certificates, if the 
SubCAs are offline. 

Mind you there’s no current limit to SubCA validity periods yet, but I would 
like to limit this to in a future ballot as well 

Regards,

Martijn

(v2): Timestamping Private Key Protection 

Hi, 
wouldn't it have been a little kinder to wait for an answer to the question I 
asked on Friday 5? 
It may be that the answer was obvious, but it remains unclear to me where that 
72 months comes from.....
