I attempt to do so).  No end entity certificates have been issued by the new

first thing next week.

Ben, I will follow up with you in separate email.

All, Just FYI... CAs are not allowed to directly add/edit Root Cert 
records in the CCADB, because that information must be verified by a 
root store operator first.


Cheers,
Kathleen
