Thanks for the suggestion, Bruce. We'll incorporate the definition change into 
the next revision of the draft ballot.

"**Subscriber Agreement**: A set of terms and conditions accepted by the 
Applicant/Subscriber that specifies the rights and responsibilities of the 
Applicant/Subscriber and the CA."

Hi Dustin,

Thanks for the update. Would still like to know why the Subscriber Agreement 
definition is so narrow, "Provisions that the Applicant/Subscriber accepts 
regarding the safekeeping and acceptable uses of the Key Pair and Certificate 
issued in accordance with these Requirements", but the TLS BRs items to be 
included which are greater than this scope?

Entrust would prefer the definition to be, "A set of terms and conditions 
accepted by the Applicant/Subscriber that specifies the rights and 
responsibilities of the Applicant/Subscriber and the CA." Would be great to get 
your feedback on this proposal.


Thanks again, Bruce.

Hello all,

Purpose of Ballot SC-0XX: Subscriber Agreement and Terms of Use Consolidation
This ballot proposes updates to the Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and 
Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates related to Subscriber Agreements 
and Terms of Use. It combines the requirements for both into only the 
Subscriber Agreement and clarifies the requirement language. It removes the 
requirement and reference to "Terms of Use".

Notes:
*              This removes any ambiguity to ensure that there is no 
requirement that the Subscriber Agreement be legally enforceable when the CA 
and Subscriber are affiliated.
*              This updates definitions for "Subscriber" and "Subscriber 
Agreement" and removes the definition for "Terms of Use" as these separate 
concepts are creating unnecessary work for CAs and Subscribers without adding 
any value when separated.
*              As observed with other ballots in the past, minor administrative 
updates must be made to the proposed ballot text before publication such that 
the appropriate Version # and Change History are accurately represented (e.g., 
to indicate these changes will be represented in Version 2.0.2).


The following motion has been proposed by Ben Wilson of Mozilla and Dustin 
Hollenback of Microsoft. And, endorsed by <NEEDED> of <NEEDED> and <NEEDED> of
