General

There is a link on the How_to_apply page that will automatically create the bug to request root inclusion, with all of the appropriate fields filled in and with a template in the bug description field.

Using the link, a bug will be created with the following fields set:

  • Product: mozilla.org
  • Component: CA Certificates
  • Version: Other
  • Severity: enhancement
  • Platform: All
  • OS: All
  • Summary: Add [your CA's name] root certificate(s)
  • Description: [see below]

Note: It is strongly recommended that you use the link on the How_to_apply page to avoid errors in creating the root inclusion request. However, if needed, you can manually create the bug: Go to the Bug Entry Page, click on Other Products, and select mozilla.org under Other. Then select the fields as listed above.

If you create the bug using the link on the How_to_apply page you will get the following template in the bug description field.

You must also provide all of the information listed in the CA Information Checklist.
