Perhaps I missed the discussion of this on last week’s call, but is this ballot 
currently in the voting period or did it get held up at some point? It has a 
number and sponsors and we appear to have had some brief discussion on the list 
about it, but I’ve literally seen no one vote for it, so I’m wondering if it’s 
stuck and the discussion/voting period dates should be adjusted, or if no one 
has submitted a vote on it yet. :)

Ballot 212: Canonicalise formal name of the Baseline Requirements

The official name of the Baseline Requirements document shall be 'The Baseline 
Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates'.
