Logotype: what happens when a communityLogo is lost ?
What happens when a communityLogo is lost ?
The current text says:
"If communityLogos is present, the logotypes MUST represent one or more
communities to which the certificate issuer is affiliated."
The question is the following:
If for any reason, a certificate issuer is loosing (even temporarily) one
of its community logos, MUST all certificates bearing such a logo be
revoked ? or is the community logo testified by the CA as valid only at
the time of issuance of the certificate ?
Same question for the Issuer Organization Logotype and the Subject
Organization Logotype.
Should we distinguish between logotypes verified as valid only at the time
of issuance of the certificate and logotypes that will be a case for
certificate revocation when the logotype is temporarily or definitively
lost ?
Whatever decision is taken on that aspect, the text should be explicit,
but beware of revoking XXXX certificates just because one logotype has
been (even temporarily) lost.
