This document forms a certificate profile, based on RFC 3280, for
identity certificates issued to natural persons.

The profile defines specific conventions for certificates that are
qualified within a defined legal framework, named Qualified
Certificates.  However, the profile does not define any legal
requirements for such Qualified Certificates.

The goal of this document is to define a certificate profile that
supports the issuance of Qualified Certificates independent of local
legal requirements.  The profile is however not limited to Qualified
Certificates and further profiling may facilitate specific local
needs.

This document is a product of the Public-Key Infrastructure (X.509)
Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the
"Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution
of this memo is unlimited.
