[cabf_governance] Ballot FORUM-4 v3

I just sent an email to the public list about the Bylaws.  The GitHub
version still said "seven calendar days", so I left it that way.  In the
Word and PDF versions, I inserted the following as indicated in red in
2.3(c):  "The discussion period then shall take place for at least seven
[Editor's note: "calendar days" was inadvertently deleted] before votes are
cast."

We discussed it on the Validation WG call.  Trustwave was voluntold to write
a quick ballot to fix it.

Dimitris, Tim, Ben - can you add the issue raised by Frank below to the
running list we have of Bylaws problems to fix?

 

Thanks, Frank.

Trustwave votes No to Ballot FORUM-4 v3.

 

Unfortunately, in conducting our final review, we noticed "days" was deleted
as a part of the redline in section 2.3 (c) in explaining the timeline for
the discussion period.  We appreciate the hard work put into this ballot.
We certainly would not want to see this effort delayed.  However, as is, the
sentence could be confusing without "days" or "calendar days" reintroduced
to limit ambiguity.

As no additional typos or mistakes appear to have been found in the proposed
redline, Ballot FORUM-4 v2 is hereby withdrawn, and this new Ballot FORUM-4
v3 submitted in its place.  Apologies for not including the latest ETSI
fixes; I really wanted to include them, but I'm just worried that discussion
may not be over yet.

 

Ballot FORUM-4 v3: Fix mistakes made during passage of Governance Reform
Ballot 206

 

Purpose of Ballot

 

The Governance Reform ballot (Ballot 206 under the old ballot numbering
scheme) was extremely complicated and took roughly two years to draft. 

The changes to the Bylaws from Ballot 216 were intended to be included in
the Governance Reform ballot, but were accidentally not included.

 

The attached version of the Bylaws restores the important discussion period
changes that were approved by the members but then accidentally overwritten.

 

The following motion has been proposed by Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and
endorsed by Wayne Thayer of Mozilla and Moudrick Dadashov of SSC.

 

--- MOTION BEGINS ---

 

This ballot replaces the "Bylaws of the CA/Browser Forum" version 1.9 with
version 2.0 of those Bylaws, attached to this ballot.

 

--- MOTION ENDS ---

 

The procedure for approval of this ballot is as follows:

 

Discussion (7 days)

 

Start Time: 2018-09-14, 2:50 pm Eastern Time

 

End Time: 2018-09-21, 2:50 pm Eastern Time

 

Vote for approval (7 days)

 

Start Time: 2018-09-21, 2:50 pm Eastern Time

 

End Time: 2018-09-28, 2:50 pm Eastern Time
