<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As Kirk mentioned during the teleconference call yesterday, we are in the process of spinning up the Server Certificate Working Group and will hold our first meeting on July 12. Kirk and I will be sending out a more formal announcement
of that meeting and solicitation for participation. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, given that the new Bylaws come into effect early next week, I felt it was important that we start the transition before then. I propose that the Forum’s mechanism for formally declaring participation in the Server Certificate Working
Group be that existing members and interested parties (who have signed the Agreement for IPR Policy v. 1.3) send an email to Kirk and me, respectively as Chair and Vice-Chair of the WG, and formally declare their participation in the WG. (I had contemplated
that everyone might send their email to the public list, but I felt that all of those emails might clutter your inboxes.)
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a follow up task to this declaration, I’d ask that CABF members list the name of their organization here
<a href="https://cabforum.org/wiki/Server%20Certificate%20Working%20Group"><span style="color:#0563C1">https://cabforum.org/wiki/Server%20Certificate%20Working%20Group</span></a>. If you are an interested party, we will add your name as a participant when
we receive your email.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, everyone is welcome to subscribe to the WG’s mailing list here -
<a href="https://cabforum.org/mailman/listinfo/servercert-wg"><span style="color:#0563C1">https://cabforum.org/mailman/listinfo/servercert-wg</span></a>. <o:p></o:p></p>

<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
