[cabfpub] Further unencumbered domain validation methods?

I would support this.  

Can we wait to start a new Ballot adding back Methods 1 and 8 to BR 3.2.2.4 until we have adopted clarifying changes to our Bylaws (Ballot 183) that will apply to new ballots amending Final Guidelines (here, amending the BRs)?

I've been reviewing the IPR Exclusion Notices filed on ballot 182:
https://cabforum.org/ipr-exclusion-notices/

It seems that people have made claims which purport to cover the following methods in section 3.2.2.4:

2, 3, 4: Symantec:
7: GoDaddy
9: GlobalSign

However, ballot 182 contained the text for the following methods not included in ballot 181: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 and 9.

This suggests that methods 1 ("Validating the Applicant as a Domain
Contact") and 8 ("IP Address") may be IP-unencumbered, and perhaps we should have a ballot to include them?
