Dear ACME team,
We just submitted a major revision to this document. Summary of changes:
* Delegation of non-STAR certificates.
* More IANA clarity, specifically on certificate extensions.
* Add delegation configuration object and extend account and order objects
accordingly.
* A lot more depth on Security Considerations.
Note: We consider delegation of regular (non-STAR) certificates a useful
feature, but not a central use case. Therefore we kept most of the body of the
spec focused on STAR certificates, with the changes for non-STAR certs listed
in Sec. 2.4.
Thanks,
Yaron

Abstract:
This memo proposes a profile of the ACME protocol that allows the
owner of an identifier (e.g., a domain name) to delegate to a third
party access to a certificate associated with said identifier. A
primary use case is that of a CDN (the third party) terminating TLS
sessions on behalf of a content provider (the owner of a domain
name). The presented mechanism allows the owner of the identifier to
retain control over the delegation and revoke it at any time by
cancelling the associated STAR certificate renewal with the ACME CA.
Another key property of this mechanism is it does not require any
modification to the deployed TLS ecosystem.
Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
