This CA has been assessed in accordance with the Mozilla project guidelines, and the certificates approved for inclusion in bug 849950. 

The next steps are as follows:
1) A representative of the CA must confirm that all the data in this bug is correct, and that the correct certificates have been attached.
2) A Mozilla representative creates a patch with the new certificates, and provides a special test version of Firefox.
3) A representative of the CA uses the test version of Firefox to confirm (by adding a comment in this bug) that the certificates have been correctly imported and that websites work correctly.
4) The Mozilla representative requests that another Mozilla representative review the patch.
5) The Mozilla representative adds (commits) the patch to NSS, then closes this bug as RESOLVED FIXED.
6) At some time after that, various Mozilla products will move to using a version of NSS which contains the certificates. This process is mostly under the control of the release drivers for those products.

This does NOT yet add EV status. Please ignore that EV is not yet enabled, and please test that the root has been correctly added.
