Thanks. I went and merged
https://github.com/sleevi/cabforum-docs/commit/4ed95dc591a228cc5a1ec27842af1a36db77b3ed

In the process, I spotted a few more areas of dates that have now passed
from when we started this whole process. If someone could spot check
https://github.com/sleevi/cabforum-docs/pull/6/files and make sure the
requirements have stayed the same, that would be great.

Of particular interest are the changes to 4.2.1; while not consistent with
Ballot 197, it's possible that the provisions might be read that "If the CA
obtained the data prior to 1 March 2018" rather than "If the issuance is
prior to 1 March 2018, and the CA obtained the data...". The latter
interpretation is what is spelled out in 197, but the former interpretation
can be read with the way things are worded.

If Wayne, Jacob, or someone interested in this section could give a spot
check (as well as the other sections that have since passed, such as
underscores or CP/CPS changes), that'd be great.
