[cabfpub] Naming rules

[Jeremy Rowley]

Correct. For #5 to be true, #3 must be true (which is still unclear), and OV must represent jurisdiction of incorporation (which it doesn’t).

There's one important item that seems unclear to me. What I took from reading Li Chun's message:

1)      Taiwan has a country-level registration
2)      Taiwan has a city-level registration
3)      The two are not mutually exclusive (ie ABC Company at the country level might be a completely different entity than ABC Company at the city level)
4)      You want the BRs to distinguish whether the ABC Company was registered with the country of Taiwan vs. a city registration.
5)      If locality is included in a cert, the actions of ABC Company (country) could be falsely attributed to the ABC Company (local)

I can't tell if #3 is true. If it is, then I can see why we'd want to make the change. If #3 is not true, then the change is only for convenience in Taiwan.

 

#5 is true if and only if we view OV information to indicate jurisdiction of incorporation. If it indicates physical address, then #5 is not true, correct?
