[Cscwg-public] Draft Ballot CSC 17 - Subscriber Private Key Protection Extension

[Ian McMillan]

Hi Folks,

Per the meeting outcome yesterday and wanting to move quickly, I have drafted up a ballot for discussion and have listed Tim and Bruce as endorsers, but I’ll be looking to confirm their endorsement with the draft ballot now.

Please note that this is based on the v3.1 that is in IPR now and will complete IPR on 09-18-2022 14:00 Eastern Time, so I’ve reflected that date in the “Discussion” period proposed dates. I wasn’t sure we could officially get going earlier, so please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks,
Ian
