Your name is not Bismarck, and this is not the Emser Depesche. :-)

  I have 'remarked' that there was no discussion of keyUsage in your text.

  You have introduced a restriction that was not in 3370. 

  Since both versions of your proposals seem wrong to me I had already
proposed to delete the second half of the sentence that talks about
keyusages of crlsign or keyCertSign.  

I also had asked whether it is true that 'Currently no EAP methods require
keyCertSign or crlSign'. I have the feeling that this is what you wanted
to express.

This text is what I had proposed to you yesterday in a reponse that 
didn't went to the list since you did not answered the question above
(unless I have missed it). 

I can live with an with that.
