Digicert has applied to upgrade an existing root CA certificate for EV 
use, as documented in the following bug:

   https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=403644

and in the pending certificates list:

   http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/certs/pending/#Digicert

I have evaluated Digicert's request, as per the mozilla.org CA 
certificate policy:

   http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/certs/policy/

and plan to officially approve this request after a public comment 
period. (This approval is contingent on one final verification step as 
outlined in the bug, but to save time I want to start the comment period 
now.)

Note that the WebTrust EV audit for Digicert was done under the final EV 
guidelines and WebTrust EV criteria, so its acceptance under our policy 
is not dependent on making the proposed policy change discussed in my 
earlier message.
