Ballot SC-064:  Temporary Moratorium on New Certificate Consumer Memberships

Purpose of the Ballot

During discussions at Face-to-Face Meeting 58, it was noted that the
membership criteria for Certificate Consumers in the Charter for the Server
Certificate Working Group (SCWG) lacked sufficient detail. Since then,
several members of the CA/Browser Forum have worked to develop better
criteria for membership of Certificate Consumers in the SCWG, however,
discussion is ongoing. A moratorium is necessary to preserve the status quo
and ensure impartiality while we re-evaluate and revise our membership
criteria so that they are more clear, fair, and aligned with the goals of
the Forum.

The following motion has been proposed by Ben Wilson of Mozilla and endorsed
by Tobias Josefowitz of Opera and Thomas Zermeno of SSL.com.

Motion Begins

Effective immediately, there is a temporary moratorium established on the
acceptance of applications for membership as Certificate Consumer members in
the Server Certificate Working Group. This moratorium will expire on
December 1, 2023, or prior to such date, upon publication of the Forum’s
vote on a revised Charter for the Server Certificate Working Group.

During the moratorium, the Server Certificate Working Group will not accept
or consider applications for membership as Certificate Consumers.
Applications for other types of membership may be accepted and considered. 

Motion Ends

This ballot does not propose a Final Guideline or Final Maintenance
Guideline.  The procedure for approval of this ballot is as follows:

Discussion (7 days)

    Start Time: 2023-05-25  21:25 UTC

    End Time: Not before 2023-06-01  22:00 UTC

Vote for approval (7 days)

    Start Time:  2023-06-05  18:00 UTC 

    End Time: 2023-06-12  18:00 UTC
