Hi Dimitris,

Would you please let us know what changes you’d propose to resolve the issues you’ve mentioned below?  Your changes weren’t left out intentionally - we probably just missed your request. Thanks.

I sent a proposal on Jan 9th (https://cabforum.org/pipermail/govreform/2018-January/000355.html) about the Server Certificate Working Group Charter but the concept is the same for the Bylaws.

So, if a CA issues Certificates for Digital Signatures which are trusted by Adobe and Adobe is not a Member of the Forum, then this CA doesn't meet the requirements. Is this a correct interpretation?

I am sending diff files for the Bylaws and IPR policy, as the Word compare function will not cooperate. The diffs may be easier to read in the end anyway.

From this point forward, we need to just review what we have, clean up typos or any errors in the ballot, and move it forward.  With this in mind, I’d appreciate it if you’d review the documents attached/referenced below to see if there are any corrections/adjustments that need to be made.  We can keep a list of additional issues that should be addressed for the next ballot.
