Voting begins for this ballot.


SC-75 v3 Pre-sign linting


Summary


There have been numerous compliance incidents publicly disclosed by CAs in 
which they failed to comply with the technical requirements described in 
standards associated with the issuance and management of publicly-trusted TLS 
Certificates. However, the industry has developed open-source tools, linters, 
that are free to use and can help CAs avoid certificate misissuance. Using 
such linters before issuing a precertificate from a Publicly-Trusted CA 
(pre-issuance linting) can prevent the mis-issuance in a wide variety of 
cases.

The following motion has been proposed by Dimitris Zacharopoulos of HARICA and 
endorsed by Corey Bonnell of Digicert and Ben Wilson of Mozilla.
