Bonjour,

If the person’s name information is placed in the organizationName attribute, 
it doesn’t mean the certificate is « Organization Validated », it’s still «   
Identity Validated ».

Placing the person’s name in the O attribute is a bad tradeoff on my opinion, 
because it brings confusion. This thread also collides with the one about 
omitting ST/L when there’s a country-level registry of corporations.

Cordialement,

Hi Jeremy,

Would like some clarification. On the call yesterday, it was said that IV 
certificates were not defined, so this ballot will help resolve this.

Per 7.1.4.2.2 b, the current BRs allow givenName and surname to be included in 
the organizationName field. Will this still be allowed? If so, what would the 
certificate type be? OV or IV? I would prefer that these be OV certificates.

If we do make the changes and the CAs have to meet Microsoft’s requirement to 
put a DV, OV, or IV certificate policy in the certificate, I think we should 
clearly define each certificate type.

Also, the stateOrProvinceName field appears to currently have an issue as it 
does not have any language to address the case where there is no state or 
province in the address.

Thanks, Bruce.
