Additional StartCom CA root
This case involves a request from StartCom for the inclusion of an additional root certificate in the NSS module. The request was initiated by Eddy Nigg from StartCom, who indicated that this new root certificate would eventually replace the current CA root certificate. The request was evaluated by Mozilla's Gervase Markham, who confirmed that there were no known technical issues with StartCom's certificates and that they met the minimum requirements for subscriber verification. The bug was resolved with the request being approved and tracked under a separate bug for the actual inclusion of the certificate.
