clarification
It is '''not''' sufficient to simply reference section 3.2.2.4 of the [https://cabforum.org/baseline-requirements-documents/ CA/Brower Forum's Baseline Requirements (BR)]. The BRs list several ways in which the CA may confirm that the certificate subscriber owns/controls the domain name to be included in the certificate. Simply referencing section 3.2.2.4 of the BRs does not specify which of those options the CA uses, and is insufficient for describing how the CA conforms to the BRs. Section 2.3 of the BRs says: "The CA SHALL develop, implement, enforce, and annually update a Certificate Policy and/or Certification Practice Statement that describes '''in detail''' how the CA implements the latest version of these Requirements."
Notes'''Important:'''
* The CPS should state what the CA actually does, not what it could do. Such as which of the allowed domain validation methods the CA uses.
* BR subsections 3.2.2.4.1 and 3.2.2.4.5 were banned effective 1-August-2018.
