SEIS: Stray Poll: SerialNumber definition



Reinstate dnQualifier!
It is more "user friendly" when discussing certificate contents with non-technical people. In 
the wake of the EU-directive this will definitively be the case that a much larger community 
than PKIX will address digital certificate format and content. Nobody wants to think of 
themselves as "serial number". Besides, as A. Rudgren points out, the dnQualifier has been 
(mis)used for unique number by many (us in Norway, e.g.).
