<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Ryan – There were intermittent issues with the build
guidelines tool where work on a local branch or pull request would fail. Those
are sorted out now. It had to do with the Latex publishing to PDF. We made it
download less. We performed GitHub integration so that the steps are published
as a docker image which reduced random downloads necessary to build PDFs. <span> </span>There are minor changes left for the working
groups. <span> </span>Ryan has already worked on the Server
Cert WG issue, and other working groups should be able to copy from the Doc
GitHub directory to use the new tooling. Related to that, Ryan cleaned up
artifacts from the old infrastructure now that SC41 has landed (there shouldn’t
be any weasyprint or kramdown bits left over). Ryan is not aware of any
remaining action items on the automated building part, although he is still working
on the HTML output, which will help with the redlines.<span>  </span>We are stable now on Github.<span>  </span>Ryan will still be working on formatting to
support the Validation Subgroup’s certificate profiles (fonts, page sizes, and
margins).<span></span></p>

list still lives in Google Sheets. We need to create a new spreadsheet and make
sure there is a CA/Browser Forum account that is the owner and that it is
backed up regularly. Currently, spreadsheets are all owned by an individual, and
access is granted to editors.<span>  </span>There should
be a Google account for managing the documents.<span> 
</span>We can create a plain vanilla Google account, a G-Suite org or a bot
account that owns these. One issue with a plain vanilla account is that there might
be account protection monitoring issues if the same user is logging in from multiple,
geographically diverse locations. Jos will create a Google account. Backing up locally
is still a good idea. <span></span></p>
