Ben and Martijn), but it would be good to clearly state, so we know everyone proposing is still on board. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="paragraph" style="vertical-align:baseline"><span class="normaltextrun">We believe that the requested date of November 15, 2023, will allow enough time for Certificate Authorities to enact any changes to their systems to ensure that they perform the
weak key checks on all CSRs submitted for TLS certificates. As such, we would like to move the ballot to the voting stage.

Certificates” (“Baseline Requirements”), based on Version 2.0.0.</span></span><span class="eop"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#0E101A"> </span></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="paragraph" style="vertical-align:baseline"><span class="normaltextrun"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Notes: Upon beginning discussion for SC-59, the then-current version of the BRs was 1.8.4; since that time several ballots have been
approved, leading to the increment of the version to 1.8.7 and eventually 2.0.0, which is the latest approved version of the BRs. The changes introduced in SC-59 do not conflict with any of the recent ballots. As observed with other ballots in the past, minor
administrative updates must be made to the proposed ballot text before publication such that the appropriate Version # and Change History are accurately represented (e.g., to indicate these changes will be represented in Version 2.0.1).
