Re: rfc 3280bis





SCVP uses wild characters for validationNames, not for names included in certificates.
Until I have clue to understand where "three additional lines" (which ones ?) would be included in RFC 3280bis, I disagree.
SCVP seems ambiguous in this sense.

Names may contain the wildcard character * which is considered to
  match any single domain name component.  That is, *.a.com matches
  foo.a.com but not bar.foo.a.com.

To me it is not clear what "Names" refer to because in the previous sentences
'name' is used for both cases.

The name validation algorithm allows the client to specify one or
  more subject names that MUST appear in the end certificate in
  addition to the requirements specified for the basic validation
  algorithm.  The name validation algorithm allows the client to supply
  an application identifier and a name to the server.  The application
  identifier defines the name matching rules to use in comparing the
  name supplied in the request with the names in the certificate.


I have no problem not allowing wildcards in subjectAltName.
