Given that it is Mozilla policy to require all CAs to follow the
CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements, and that the Baseline
Requirements require that "the CA SHALL publicly disclose its
Certificate Policy and/or Certification Practice Statement through an
appropriate and readily accessible online means that is available on a
24x7 basis" and that "the CA SHALL disclose all Cross Certificates
that identify the CA as the Subject, provided that the CA arranged for
or accepted the establishment of the trust relationship (i.e. the
Cross Certificate at issue)," should Mozilla require that disclosure
of the CP, CPS, operator name, and operator URL for all
cross-certificates prior to use?

I realize that Mozilla carved out allowance for not disclosing, but
the CA/Browser Forum did not adopt this, instead only exempting
technically constrained CAs from the audit requirement.  Maybe this is
a place where the Mozilla policy can aligned with the BRs.

Thanks,
Peter
