Ballot 166: Clarification of Membership Requirements
The following motion has been proposed by Dean Coclin of Symantec and
endorsed by Gerv Markham of Mozilla and Kirk Hall of Trend Micro:
*Background:*
Section 2.1 (a)(1) says that Issuing CAs “actively issue certificates
to Web servers…”
Section 2.1(b) of the bylaws lists the items needed in a membership
application by CAs.
But that section does not ask the CA applicant to provide a 3^rd party
website where the CA/B Forum can validate that they are actively
issuing certs to web servers. We do however ask the applicant this
question, after they have submitted their application. It would be
helpful to have this in the bylaws so we don’t have to go back and ask
every time.
-- MOTION BEGINS --
In CA/B Forum Bylaws, add under 2.1(b):
(7) The URL of at least one third party website that includes a
certificate issued by the Applicant in the certificate chain.
-- MOTION ENDS –
The review period for this ballot shall commence at 2200 UTC on 21
March 2016, and will close at 2200 UTC on 28 March 2016. Unless the
motion is withdrawn during the review period, the voting period will
start immediately thereafter and will close at 2200 UTC on 4 April
2016. Votes must be cast by posting an on-list reply to this thread.
A vote in favor of the motion must indicate a clear 'yes' in the
response. A vote against must indicate a clear 'no' in the response. A
vote to abstain must indicate a clear 'abstain' in the response.
Unclear responses will not be counted. The latest vote received from
any representative of a voting member before the close of the voting
period will be counted. Voting members are listed here:
