For the texts on the current standardization of extensions to certificates and
certificate revocation lists please

anonymous FTP to NC-17.MA02.Bull.com

and go to /pub/OSIdirectory/Certificates

This directory contains the Technical Corrigendum (TC_for_DR128) that addresses
defect report 9594/128. This TC affects implementations conforming to either the
first or second editions of X.509 | 9594-8 by defining the facility to support
extensibility for both certificates and certificate revocations lists (CRL).
Support of this TC is essential to allow the deployment of certificates and CRLs
as being defined in the current standardization work (now at the status of Draft
Amendment, i.e. one more ballot to go)

This TC has been approved by ISO/IEC. However, since this work is collaborative
with ITU, this TC must also be approved by ITU. Since that approval is typically
a process of affirmation, implementors may confidently implement this TC.

The TC is stored here as a Word 6 document (.DOC) and in postscript for A4
(.A4.ps) and US (.US.ps) paper. The PostScript is stored in two formats - a
binhexed Stuffit self extracting archive (.sea.hqx) (windows users, please check
out the utility in the tools directory here), and as a uuencoded UNIX compressed
file (.Z.uu).

The Draft Amendment for extensions to certificates is also contained here
(CertificatesDAM). This document has be submitted for ballot as a Draft
Amendment (the last round). It is stored here as a Word 6 file (.DOC) and in
postscript for A4 (.A4.ps) and US (.US.ps) paper. The PostScript is stored in
two formats - a binhexed Stuffit self extracting archive (.sea.hqx) (windows
users, please check out the utility in the tools directory here), and as a
uuencoded UNIX compressed file (.Z.uu).

Use binary FTP to transfer the Word 6 files and text FTP for all others.
