KISTI Grid CA was returned since IGTF CA Distribution 1.16.
KEK Grid CA audited NAREGI CA (July)
Some major problems
NAREGI CA embedded field in subject DN.
It is used to guarantee uniqueness of the subject name.
NAREGI CA will remove field from the subject DN, therefore NAREGI CA need to consider how to guarantee uniqueness of the subject name.
Organization is not clear
There is a RA, but different people are responsible for identity vetting.

4. Updates (cont’d) ASGCCA would create a new root CA certificate.
Problems about ASGCCA-2007
ASGCCA would create a new root CA certificate.
Old one will be expired next year.
Hash of the new root CA was same with the hash of the old root CA.
They used the same private key with the old one.
Subject name of the new root CA included a trailing space.
Issued a new root CA on October 9th.
Will be included in the next IGTF CA distribution.
PRAGMA CA is now reviewing for accreditation.
NAREGI CA is planning to draft (and provide) a template of CP and CPS as separate documents based on RFC3647.
CP can be shared between member CAs with some modifications.
