[cabfpub] Forum Ballot to Amend Server Certificate WG Charter

[Dimitris Zacharopoulos (HARICA)]

Thanks Ben, happy to endorse.

One minor nit, since there is no longer a "transition" phase, we should 
probably remove the part about the quorum that says:

"For transition purposes, if three meetings have not yet occurred, 
quorum is ten (10)."


Best,
Dimitris.
