Perhaps I have to clearify that again:

CAcert currently only puts the town, region, country into the certificates 
for 
Organisations.
CAcert currently does not put street into the certificates for Organisations.
CAcert currently does not put any address for individuals into certs.

I don´t remember any requests to add the address information of individuals 
into the certificates, so it seems there is no demand for it, therefore I 
don´t think we should change that. (We would have to verify the address 
before 
we put it in the certificate, so we would have to send our assurers there to 
verify it, or send some postal-mail to the address to verify it ...)

I guess we could put the street into the ST= field of the certificates, which 
we do not use yet. I haven´t seen any demand for that.

We need the country of organisations to clearify jurisdiction.

Best regards,
