<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">One minor amendment was made during the comment period to add the phrase “while still providing acceptable levels of security” to the description of the proposed working group’s expected work product. So, unless
endorsers withdraw their support such that there are fewer than two endorsers, I do not see the need to further delay this ballot, and voting will begin at 2200 UTC later today.
