Fwd: The gmail account used for public discussions

[Kurt Seifried]

So this is helpful, posting publicly for everyone else. So the email headers:

And the DNS records they mention:

dig -t txt bjca.org.cn

bjca.org.cn. 600 IN TXT "mozilla-root-inclusion-auxiliary-contact=wash...@gmail.com"

and the bjca.cn doesn't show it:

bjca.cn. 600 IN TXT "mozilla-root-inclusion-auxiliary-contact=wash...@gmail.com"

Now the question about authorization to make these statements comes up, however being that they can edit the root DNS records, anything we would ask could be faked without a BIMI level of checking (https://bimigroup.org/resources/VMC_Requirements_latest.pdf) which to be clear I would be in support for for root CA's.

Hi Kurt,

The Gmail account (wash...@gmail.com) is an account that BJCA logs in to the Google Forum for public discussion. At the same time, we added TXT records of "mozilla-root-inclusion-auxiliary-contact=wash...@gmail.com" to the DNS servers of bjca.cn and bjca.org.cn for auxiliary inspection.

Regards,

BJCA team
