I agree with you that decentralizing the ACME might be a topic too large and exceed the scope of the ACME working group. However, considering that the transparency of CA management is vital important for the future internet. It might be worthy to thinking about the idea in the paper. ________________________________ From: Q Misell <q=40as207960....@dmarc.ietf.org> Sent: Wednesday, 8 November 2023 10:52:23 PM To: Wang Haiguang Cc: Q Misell; acme@ietf.org Subject: Re: [Acme] Decentralized the ACME
Whilst I agree that CAs could do with more transparency, ACME isn't the place to work on that. ACME is one of many methods to interact with a CA, most CAs don't even offer it. It is merely a protocol interface to a CA, the CA/BF actually defines how a CA operates, and any transparency requirements around that. ________________________________ Any statements contained in this email are personal to the author and are not necessarily the statements of the company unless specifically stated.
