About Mozilla's CA Certificate Policy Version 2.3

Purpose of this update

The purpose of this update to Version 2.3 was to officially publish some agreed-upon changes which had been made a year or more before the date of publication and which had been de facto adopted but had not been officially published. Also, we added information about new versions of the ETSI audit standards.

Time Frames for included CAs to comply with version 2.3 of the policy

Immediate - Even though Version 2.3 was published December 19, 2016, the changes had already been adopted in practice.
