DigiCert: Transition Plan for Existing Dual-Purpose Roots
This case is a Mozilla Root Store Policy transition plan submitted by DigiCert for existing dual-purpose roots. DigiCert’s submission lists specific root certificates and the requested Mozilla trust-bit changes, including removals and changes to S/MIME-only trust, with dates such as 20260415, changes to SMIME before 20270915 or 20260615, and removals on 20300415. DigiCert also states an “ultimate goal” to consolidate on certain roots (e.g., DigiCert SMIME and TLS roots) and notes that some roots should be kept. DigiCert references Mozilla Bug 2017453 for removals scheduled for 20260415. In a later comment, DigiCert requests a correction to the table entries for DigiCert Global Root G2 and DigiCert Global Root G3, adjusting the described trust-bit changes and related notes. The bug remains in the ASSIGNED state.
