Ah, the confusion is that Doug's most recent email confuses the voting period with the discussion period:

 

Discussion (7+ days)

 

Start Time: 2019-01-29 15:00 Eastern

 

End Time: 2019-02-05 15:00 Eastern

 

Vote for approval (7 days)

 

Start Time: TBD

 

End Time: TBD

 

Doug, do you want to send out a correction?

I thought the discussion period started on 22 January and ended today.

The enthusiasm is great, but voting on SC15 won't start until next week, so these won't be counted.

Ballot SC15 version 2: Remove Validation Method Number 9

 

Purpose of Ballot:  Method 9, Test Certificate, is insecure when web hosting platforms use a single IP address for more than one Domain Name, so this method must not be used.

 

The following motion has been proposed by Doug Beattie of GlobalSign and endorsed by Bruce Morton of Entrust Datacard and Ryan Sleevi of Google.

 

--- MOTION BEGINS ---

This ballot modifies the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates” as follows, based on Version 1.6.2:

 

Replace the content of section 3.2.2.4.9 with:

 

This method has been retired and MUST NOT be used. Prior validations using this method and validation data gathered according to this method SHALL NOT be used to issue certificates.

 

 

--- MOTION ENDS ---

 

*** WARNING ***: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.  THE REDLINE BELOW IS NOT THE OFFICIAL VERSION OF THE CHANGES (CABF Bylaws, Section 2.4(a)):

 

A comparison of the changes can be found at: https://github.com/dougbeattie/documents/compare/master...dougbeattie:SC15---Remove-Method-9 

 

 

The procedure for approval of this ballot is as follows:

 

Discussion (7+ days)

 

Start Time: 2019-01-29 15:00 Eastern

 

End Time: 2019-02-05 15:00 Eastern

 

Vote for approval (7 days)

 

Start Time: TBD

 

End Time: TBD
