[Cscwg-public] FW: Ballot CSC-22: High Risk Requirements Update

Wed Jan 17 17:09:26 UTC 2024

Dean, Bruce,

Apologies for not spotting this sooner. Can you please confirm if this 
is the email that was sent to the public list to start the discussion 
period?

https://lists.cabforum.org/pipermail/cscwg-public/2023-December/001141.html

If this is the only email that was sent to start the discussion period, 
I'm afraid it is not compliant with the Bylaws because when the official 
discussion period started, the ballot did not include two endorsers. 
Instead, it seems that it went straight to voting, per 
https://lists.cabforum.org/pipermail/cscwg-public/2024-January/001145.html.

Again, sorry for not discovering this earlier and I would definitely 
need another pair of eyes to confirm this.

Dimitris.
