[Servercert-wg] Discussion period begins: Ballot SC60: Membership of ZT Browser

[Tim Hollebeek]

Our endorsement of this ballot simply indicates that we support ISRG’s right to ask for a ballot, that the charter requires a ballot in this situation, and to avoid unnecessary delays in resolving this issue.  It does not indicate whether we are for or against ZT Browser’s membership.  We look forward to seeing the discussion on this important issue.
