Kathleen,

Can you explain how policy 2.4 applies to existing CAs with respect to being 
Technically Constrained?

This is my understanding:  
- Under policy 2.3 a CA that is technically constrained with EKU set to only 
secure email but without name constraints was considered out of scope of the 
Mozilla Policy.  
- Policy 2.4.1 adds a requirement that for the CA to be out of scope of the 
Mozilla policy the CA needs to have name constraints if the CA is capable of 
issuing secure email certificates.

Is this accurate?  If so, when does this new requirement apply to existing CAs?

Doug
