·  What user interface element is the TLS indicator defined in this 
specification. 
The padlock in the address bar

·  What user interface element is the identity signal defined in this 
specification. 
The location bar with the extra indicator information. 

·  What broadly accepted practices are considered sufficient for a trust 
anchor to be deemed augmented assurance qualified (see 5.1.2 Augmented 
Assurance Certificates  ), and what data elements are deemed assured by 
those certificates. [added ?what data elements?.]
WebTrust EV audit, in accordance with CA/B Forum EV guidelines. 
O= and C= are deemed assured by those certificates. 

II. To derive a human-readable subject name from an augmented assurance 
certificate, user agents  SHOULD use the Subject field's Organization (O) 
and Country (C) attributes. 
Conforms Advanced 
IIa (or III replacement) They MUST  use information that is subject to the 
certificate authority's additional assurances, as  documented in the user

Conforms Basic 

XXXI User agents with a visual user interface  MUST show the  Identity 
Signal in a consistent visual position. (should -> must) 

Conforms Basic

XLIV Where security context information is provided in both primary and 
secondary interface, the  meaning of the presented information MUST be 
consistent. Best practice will also avoid inconsistent presentation, such 
as using identical or semantically similar icons for different information 
in different places. (presentations moved out of must) 
Conforms Basic (no change)

I've made the following changes, based on our last meeting, and on the 
discussions Thomas and I had today: 

XLIII - Conforms Basic (redundant)
XLIV - Conforms Basic
XXIX - Does Not Conform Basic 
XXX - Does Not Conform Basic 
XXXVI - Conforms Basic
LXXVIII - Conforms Basic
XCVII - Conforms Basic

and a bit of cleanup

Ian and Thomas, at the very least, should verify they understand and agree 
with each of these. I'll upload the changed Implemenation report.
