Purpose of the Ballot

offline HSMs
2.      Add a requirement to remove Private Keys associated with Timestamp 
Certificates after a 18 months
3.      Add a requirement to reject SHA-1 timestamp requests

The following motion has been proposed by Martijn Katerbarg of Sectigo and 
endorsed by Bruce Morton of Entrust and Ian McMillan of Microsoft.
