Keynectis/Certplus root CA inclusion request

This case is a request to include the Keynectis/Certplus "Certplus Class 2 Primary CA" root in Mozilla products. The request was opened by Erwann Abalea of Keynectis/DocuSign, who provided the root certificate, policy documents, audit references, and later an updated CPS. Mozilla reviewers asked for clearer public documentation about validation practices, the certificate hierarchy, and CRL handling, and Keynectis responded with additional links and CPS updates. Gervase Markham then evaluated the request, noted that Keynectis appeared to meet Mozilla's minimum requirements, and said he was minded to approve it after a public discussion period. The thread ends with Gerv stating that evaluation was complete and that the inclusion bug was bug 379032.
