I just noticed that the description I put in table 1.2.2:

2026-09-15 7.1.3.2.1 Sunset all remaining use of SHA-1 in Certificates and CRLs.

is not very descriptive of the requirement to revoke unexpired SHA-1 subCAs.

The actual requirement states:

Prior to 2026‐09‐15, the CA SHALL revoke any unexpired Subordinate CA Certificate that contains RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 with SHA-1 within the Certificate.

I will update the description in the next BRs update to state:

2026-09-15 7.1.3.2.1 Revoke any unexpired Subordinate CA Certificate that contains SHA-1

Please let me know if this description reflects the requirement better than the previous one.

Thanks,
Dimitris.

Dimitris, both descriptions are correct though. Perhaps add your proposed line to the table, but also keep the existing one.
