Hi Frank,

I've visited that page you are pointing me obviously. However this page 
also says:

"The standards ETSI TS 101.456 (Europe) and ANSI X9.79 (USA, Canada) 
*may* also serve *as a basis* for the certification of a Public Key 
Infrastructure (PKI) respectively a Certification Service Provider (CSP)."

I would be interested to know which criteria was used by the auditor for 
auditing this CA before studying the "Bundesgesetz über die 
elektronische Signatur (ZertES)" more in detail.
