Ballot 195 - CAA Fixup
Purpose of Ballot: The CAB Forum recently passed ballot 187 to make CAA 
checking mandatory. This ballot corrects some wording issues in the text added 
by that ballot.
The following motion has been proposed by Gervase Markham of Mozilla and 
endorsed by Ryan Sleevi of Google and Jeremy Rowley of DigiCert:

-- MOTION BEGINS --
Change the following in section 3.2.2.8 of the Baseline Requirements:
1) Add a carriage return after "any other time."
2) Replace the sentence:
"CAs MUST process the issue, issuewild, and iodef property tags as specified in 
RFC 6844."
with:
"CAs MUST process the issue, issuewild, and iodef property tags as specified in 
RFC 6844, although they are not required to act on the contents of the iodef 
property tag."
3) Replace the sentence:
"CAs MUST respect the critical flag and reject any unrecognized properties with 
this flag set."
with:
"CAs MUST respect the critical flag and not issue a certificate if they 
encounter an unrecognized property with this flag set."
