I apologize for the delay in my response. My work on root inclusion requests was postponed for a while. I am accepting this bug, and will work on it as soon as possible, but I have a large backlog. https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA:Schedule#Requests_in_the_Information_Gathering_and_Verification_Phase I will update this bug when I begin the Information Verification phase. https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA:How_to_apply#Information_Verification

Hi Kathleen, Reminder - please let us know the next steps. Thanks, Rashmi
We are remove support for DSA/DSS certificates completely from Gecko and mozilla::pkix. Whether or not this certificate should be added should be contingent on the results of bug 1073867 and bug 1107787.

Mozilla does not plan to add DSA support to Mozilla's CA Certificate Policy, so we will not add DSA root certs to NSS. https://groups.google.com/d/msg/mozilla.dev.security.policy/JFmDFlHILOY/KHJzcJezpnQJ
