        <p class="MsoNormal">Ben,<br>
          <br>
          Obviously I have nothing against Entrust, Tim and Bruce rejoin
          the forum - I actually miss them :-)<br>
          <br>
          BUT....I'm not sure if this is a wise thing to do because
          Entrust is a certificate authority, a previous member and a
          member that left the forum due to the IPR policy. Somehow it
          simply doesn't sound good to me and might be a slippery slope
          if we introduce such waivers for this or the other requirement
          the CAB Forum has decided it wants in first place.
          <br>
          <br>
          Tomorrow something else could turn up and another CA could be
          affected and then we are in a problem if Entrust got some
          preferential today and don't allow it for another one. Just my
          0.02 US$ (and I believe Entrust will understand and consider
          it the right thing too if they'd be a member today).<br>
          <br>
          On 01/23/2014 03:08 AM, From Ben Wilson: <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Pursuant to Section 5.4 of the Bylaws,
          “other persons” may be invited by the Chair in the Chair’s
          discretion to participate in a CA/Browser Forum Meeting based
          on a person’s relevant expertise.  In light of recent
          discussion and the proposed Ballot 110, which if endorsed will
          not complete voting until 6 February 2014, I am proposing that
          we invite Bruce Morton of Entrust as our Invited Guest during
          the working group and F2F Meeting 31 from 18-20 February 2014
          and that we waive the IPR Agreement requirement for purposes
          of such invitation.  <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">The basis for this request is that I have
          known Bruce Morton since 2005 and he was present during the
          early formation of the CA/Browser Forum during that time and
          through July 2012 when Entrust had to withdraw from
          participation in the CA/Browser Forum due to enforcement of
          the IPR Policy.  Bruce Morton has deployed and managed several
          public and private PKIs for both government and industry for
          over 15 years and over the last 8 years, Bruce has managed the
          governance, compliance and risk management aspects of
          Entrust's Certificate Services. He has indicated a desire to
          attend the meetings and that Entrust is planning on executing
          the IPR Agreement, but that due to logistics of obtaining
          required corporate/legal approvals to sign the IPR Agreement,
          he does not anticipate that the IPR Agreement will be
          submitted in time for Meeting 31 to be held in Mountain View,
          CA. 
          <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Based on these representations and for
          other good and valid reasons, I believe that the CA/Browser
          Forum should waive its requirements to sign the IPR Agreement
          for Bruce Morton so that he may be invited to and attend the
          upcoming meetings.
