Without Kirk's endorsement and the other votes of concern let's consider the
ballot withdrawn for further editing.

Mozilla votes NO - see below for why.

Looking at the discussion history for ballot 107, it was proposed, and then
various people provided comments, but it has not been withdrawn or
resubmitted, and voting ends tomorrow. (With one early vote from Trend Micro
and one from GlobalSign being the only current outstanding votes).

I think consideration needs to be given to the feedback provided and so, to
prevent it 'accidentally' passing when most people seem not to have voted,
Mozilla votes NO. We are not against in principle, but we wish to see either
a good explanation of why the proposed changes are not necessary, or the
ballot being withdrawn and updated. If the former is provided before the
deadline, we would certainly consider changing our vote.

Unfortunately, I am not able to be on the call today.

Gerv
