I tried to found out more about the trial and other certificates at your 
site (now that it's in English), however couldn't make the distinction 
between any of them...perhaps you can guide me?

Well, the discussion is about your CA which is currently considered to 
be included in NSS! Any shortcoming by another CA can be discussed in an 
unrelated thread on this mailing list. If you know about CAs which issue 
unvalidated certificates and its root is currently in NSS please post it 
here.

Right, however your CPS doesn't make a distinction between different roots!

It doesn't makes it OK. Maybe the CA you refer to has a separate CP/CPS 
which regulate such certificates? But again, the only relevant authority 
what Mozilla concerns is the Mozilla CA policy which must be satisfied.

Absolutely and as I mentioned, the discussion about this issues doesn't 
affect your application directly since the Mozilla CA policy doesn't 
have any requirements in that respect. Sorry that this was so 
extensively discussed in this thread.

This is the same statement from June 2005 which is already at the bug 
report.
