<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p>Here's an updated draft with the details around how suspension would work in practice, as requested.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Would anyone care to endorse?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Gerv<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><b>Ballot XXX - Membership-related clarifications</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto"><b>Purpose of Ballot: </b>The CAB Forum Bylaws define membership criteria, but don't say what should happen when an existing member ceases to meet those criteria. This ballot is intended to fix this, for
the avoidance of doubt and uncertainty. It also makes it clearer that proper recognition of currently-issued certificates by at least one browser member is a membership requirement, and adds the definition of "Affiliate" from the IPR policy.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto">The following motion has been proposed by Gervase Markham of Mozilla and endorsed by XXX of XXX and XXX of XXX:<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto">-- MOTION BEGINS --<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto">This motion changes the CAB Forum Bylaws.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Section 1<br>
</u></b><br>
Add a new section between 2.1 ("Qualifying for Forum Membership") and the following section, numbering the new section 2.2, and renumbering following sections appropriately. The new section shall read:<br>
<br>
<b>2.2 Ending Forum Membership</b><br>
<br>
Forum Members may resign from the Forum at any time. Resignation does not prevent a member potentially having continuing obligations, under the Forum's IPR Policy or any other document.<br>
<br>
(a) <u>Browser</u>: A Browser member's membership will automatically cease if any of the following become true:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo2">

six months have elapsed since the last such published update.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal">(b) <u>Issuing CA</u> or <u>Root CA</u>: An CA member's membership may be suspended if any of the following become true:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l4 level1 lfo5">

it is no longer the case that its currently-issued certificates are treated as valid by at least one Browser member.
<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any Forum Member who believes one of the above circumstances is true of a CA Forum Member may report it on the Public Mail List. The Chair will then investigate, including asking the CA for an explanation or appropriate documentation. If
evidence of continued qualification for membership is not forthcoming within <span style="color:#1F497D">
FIVE</span> working days, the Chair will announce that the member is suspended, such announcement to include the clause(s) from the above list under which the suspension has been made.<span style="color:#1F497D"> [SHOULD WE GIVE THE CHAIR AUTHORITY TO EXTEND
THE DEADLINE FOR REACHING A CONCLUSION IN CASE THERE IS DISPUTE AS TO THE ALLEGATIONS THAT A MEMBER NO LONGER QUALIFIES? THREE DAYS IS PRETTY SHORT.]</span><br>
<br>
A suspended CA Forum Member who believes it has now re-met the membership criteria under the relevant clauses shall post evidence to the Public Mail List. The Chair will examine the evidence and unsuspend the member, or not, by public announcement. A CA Forum
Member's membership will automatically cease six months after it becomes suspended if it has not re-met the membership criteria by that time.<span style="color:#1F497D"> [Should we include a dispute resolution process, such as “IF ANY MEMBER DISPUTES THE
DECISION BY THE CHAIR, THE MATTER WILL BE PUT TO A VOTE OF THE MEMBERS WITH CAS AND BROWSERS VOTING AS A SINGLE CLASS.”?]</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color:#1F497D">VOTES BY A CA MEMBER PRIOR TO SUSPENSION WILL BE COUNTED AS VALID EVEN IF THE CA NO LONGER QUALIFIES TO BE A MEMBER AT THE TIME OF THE VOTE AND IS SUBJECT TO POSSIBLE SUSPENSION.
</span>While suspended, CAs may participate in meetings and on the Forum's discussion lists, but not take part in any form of voting.<br>
<br>
<b><u>Section 2<br>
</u></b><br>
Update both sections 2.1 (a) and (b) to insert words as follows:<br>
<br>
"actively issues certificates to Web servers that are openly accessible from the Internet<u>, such certificates being treated as valid when</u> using a browser created by a Browser member."<br>
<br>
<b><u>Section 3<br>
<br>
</u></b>Update section 2.2 b) as follows:<br>
<br>
Only one vote per Member company shall be accepted; representatives of <s>corporate affiliates</s><u>Affiliates</u> shall not vote.
<br>
<br>
Add to the Definitions section:<br>
<br>
<b>Affiliate:</b> an entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, a Member. Control for the purposes of this Agreement shall mean direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent of the voting
stock, or decision-making authority in the event that there is no voting stock, in an entity.
