Re: [IETF-PKIX] Multiple certificates for same key?

[Stephen Kent <kent@xxxxxxx>]

Stefan,

I don't think we have any prohibitions against issuing multiple certs
against the same public key.  In fact, if the certs represent renewal
certs, I'm sure we would not preclude such actions.  Since two certs can
differ in terms of extensions, validity intervals, etc., not just in terms
of subject names, this would seem an unduly restrictive prohibition in the
general case.  Thus I suscept this is more of a policy matter for a given
CA context.
