Ballot 155 - Convert Network and Certificate System Security Requirements to
RFC 3647 Framework and GitHub

The Certificate Policy Review Working Group was chartered by Ballot 128 to
(i) consider existing and proposed standards, (ii) create a list of
potential improvements based on the considered standards that improve the
existing CAB Forum work product, (iii) evaluate the transition to a 3647
format based on the amount of work involved. 

The CP Review WG has met and concluded that the best path forward for the
Forum is to complete a conversion to the RFC 3647 framework for the Network
and Certificate System Security Requirements and to post it on GitHub. 

Ben Wilson of DigiCert makes the following motion, and _____  from ______
and _______ from __________ endorse it. 

Motion Begins 

Be it resolved that the CA / Browser Forum directs the Certificate Policy
Review Working Group to prepare a version of the Network and Certificate
System Security Requirements that moves existing content into the RFC 3647
format;

Be it further resolved that the CA / Browser Forum also directs the
Certificate Policy Review Working Group to post the RFC-3647-formatted
Network and Certificate System Security Requirements on GitHub to serve,
upon formal adoption by the Forum in a future ballot, as the canonical
version of the Network and Certificate System Security Requirements. 

Motion Ends 

The review period for this ballot shall commence at 2200 UTC on ___  2015
and will close at 2200 UTC on ___. Unless the motion is withdrawn during the
review period, the voting period will start immediately thereafter and will
close at 2200 UTC on ___.

favor of the ballot must indicate a clear 'yes' in the response. A vote
against the ballot must indicate a clear 'no' in the response. A vote to

the motion to be adopted, two thirds or more of the votes cast by members in
the CA category and more than one half of the votes cast by members in the
browser category must be in favor. Quorum is currently nine (9) members- at
least nine members must participate in the ballot, either by voting in
favor, voting against, or by abstaining for the vote to be valid.
