RE: QC certificates and Nationality

[BalluffiF@xxxxxxxxxx]

I would like to offer the following observation.

Since an ATTRIBUTE is multi-valued by default, there is nothing wrong with
countryOfCitizenship below. The problem seems to be that Name is comprised
of single-valued attribute (i.e., AttributeTypeAndValue), not multi-valued
attributes (i.e., Attribute).

Unfortunately, I do not have a simple solution. I am not comfortable
suggesting Name be changed.

Hello Russ,

very good point! The wording in chapter 3.2.1 doesn't fit to the 
definition of the attribute.

Right now, you have to add the attribute multiple times. I suggest that
we replace the definition by the following:

countryOfCitizenship  ATTRIBUTE ::= {
	WITH SYNTAX   SEQUENCE OF PrintableString(SIZE (2)) 
					-- IS 3166 codes only
	ID            id-at-countryOfCitizenship }

countryOfResidence    ATTRIBUTE ::= {
	WITH SYNTAX   SEQUENCE OF PrintableString(SIZE (2)) 
					-- IS 3166 codes only
	ID            id-at-countryOfResidence }
 

Best regards - Petra
