TWCA has a couple of incidents open for revocation delays. I think until 
this CA can show that it can follow its own CP/CPS and BRs, new trust 
anchors from that CA should not be accepted into the Mozilla Trust Store. 
Beyond that looking at the document linked here: 
https://www.twca.com.tw/upload/saveArea/filePage/20240313/05926332a5cb42bbb70bc7a0c841dff4/05926332a5cb42bbb70bc7a0c841dff4.pdf
 
in section 4.9.2, they seem to not actually include non-subscribers as 
entities that can request revocation. For example, if some subscriber 
manages to issue a certificate for a domain I own, and I decide to get that 
revoked, under this document it doesn't seem like I have the authority to 
do that.

My objection is that while the CA is showing that they're comfortable 
ignoring the BRs, they should not be permitted to have additional roots 
join the trust store. Specifically, on this incident: 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1886110 0 they didn't even 
understand what revocation actually entails.

I'll go even further that Mozilla should consider a motion of distrust on 
this CA rather than extending trust to them even further than it already 
has - but that is a discussion for another thread.
