Near the bottom of that page is a link that says: "Change columns". Click that, and you will get a page with a form that enables you to choose the columns you want. >> 5) I think there are still some discrepancies.

That's on my list to do. (WISeKey is in this same situation as > well.) Well, if it's now back in a state of awaiting more evaluation from you, I'd say it's no longer in "public discussion" state. I'd like to suggest that every time there is a state change in a request, a comment should be added, documenting the state change. One should be able to tell when the last state change occurred by simply starting at the bottom of the bug and working up until that comment is found. I'd also like to suggest that, for each of the bugs that is now in "information incomplete" state, a comment should be added stating exactly what information is missing. I think more than a few of the CAs whose requests are in that state don't realize that the request is in that state, and don't know what they should be doing to move it along. They probably just assume that their request is just in the queue. _______________________________________________ dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
