This was discussed on today’s GWG call.

Suggestions made:


  1.  Intent for the calls: Majority of work will be under Server working 
group. Forum business will be done at the conclusion of the server cert call. 
So if the sever cert call is from 12-1, the forum business will start at 1. 
This way other members of the forum can join at that time and discuss forum 
business.
  2.  Initial chairs: Yes, unless otherwise decided by the working group (as 
currently stated in the document)
  3.  Schedule: Agree, removed specific times.
  4.  2.2a – agree, no changes
  5.  4.1c – changed to Associate members
  6.  IPR: Yes, we will make it clear in the ballot

Subject: Re: [cabfpub] Pre-Ballot 206 - Amendment to IPR Policy & Bylaws re 
Working Group Formation

Thank you Ben, Virginia, and WG members for all your hard work to get us to 
this point. I reviewed these documents and have just a few comments:

My main question is about our bi-weekly teleconference. In Ben’s latest draft 
Server Certificate WG charter, this call appears to be defined as a Server 
Certificate WG meeting. However, there is a lot of Forum business conducted on 
those calls, and if those meetings are defined as Server Certificate WG 
meetings then I assume that members of other WGs can’t attend. What is the 
intent?

Server Certificate Working Group Charter:
- Initial Chairs - this section makes Kirk and Ben the Chair and Vice Chair and 
goes on to state “terms to run concurrently with their terms as Chair and Vice 
Chair of the Forum,” Is the intent that newly elected forum chairs 
automatically become chairs of this WG, or that the WG hold new elections at 
the same time?
- Meeting Schedule (in Ben’s latest draft) - do we really want to have to edit 
the charter to change the teleconference times? Suggest you add a statement 
allowing the schedule to be modified.

Bylaws:
- (nit) Section 2.2(a) ends Forum membership when the party is not a member of 
any working group, so we’d better not accidentally allow every WG to expire.
- (nit) Section 4.1(c) - Historically, I believe the Election Committee has 
consisted of individuals who are Associate Members, not Interested Parties.

IPR Policy:
Do all current members need to sign a new IPR agreement (as discussed 
onThursday’s call) once this ballot passes? If so, the ballot should set a 
deadline for doing so and make it clear that membership will be terminated if 
the new agreement isn’t signed.

- Wayne
