Warning

Do not merge until July 8, when we have removed the tlsclient profile, and with it the last usage of the Gen X intermediates.

Warning

Before merging, update the lastmod date. It is currently in the past so that the tests and deploy preview are willing to render the page.

On the certificates page, move the Gen X intermediates to the "retired" section. Create a new "expired" section to hold the very oldest Gen X intermediates, to prevent the "retired" expando from getting unwieldy. Update the diagram to match.

On the profiles page, remove the tlsclient profile and all mentions of the TLS Client Auth EKU. Wordsmith the description of the tlsserver profile somewhat, to paper over the removal and better reflect reality.
