Hi Dimitris,
From v1.8 of the Bylaws, section 2.3.c: “The ballot automatically fails if 21 
calendar days elapse since the proposer last posted a version of the ballot and 
the voting period has not been started.”

I last posted a version of the ballot on March 14th 
(https://cabforum.org/pipermail/public/2018-March/013086.html), which is less 
than 21 calendar days ago. Given that, I do not believe this ballot has expired.

Thanks,
Corey

v2: Clarify handling of CAA Record Sets with no "issue"/"issuewild" property tag

Hello Corey,

I'm afraid you've passed the 21 days from first introduction and according to 
the Bylaws (section 2.3 c) the ballot automatically fails. I think this is 
actually the first time we have this situation so I would like at least another 
member to confirm or correct my interpretation.

If I am correct, you should pick a new ballot number and send a new ballot to 
start the 7-day (minimum) discussion period. If you are certain that you will 
not need more than 7 days for discussion, you could indicate that the voting 
period begins exactly after the 7-days discussion.


Best Regards,
Dimitris.

 However, there is still no indication that the erratum state will change to 
“Held for Document Update” or “Approved” anytime soon.

We believe that the acknowledgement from the RFC author to fix this in the next 
version of the RFC is a sufficient surrogate to getting the erratum state 
changed. Waiting for the erratum state to change is merely red-tape in the 
process. As such, we intend to proceed with the ballot in its current form by 
closing the Discussion Period on Ballot 219 and begin voting tomorrow evening 
(UTC time).

Thanks,
Corey

Ballot 219 v2: Clarify handling of CAA Record Sets with no "issue"/"issuewild" 
property tag

Purpose of this ballot:

RFC 6844 contains an ambiguity in regard to the correct processing of a 
non-empty CAA Resource Record Set that does not contain any issue property tag 
(and also does not contain any issuewild property tag in the case of a Wildcard 
Domain Name). It is ambiguous if a CA must not issue when such a CAA Resource 
Record Set is encountered, or if such a Resource Record Set is implicit 
permission to issue.

Given that the intent of the RFC is clear (such a CAA Resource Record Set is 
implicit permission to issue), we are proposing the following change to allow 
for CAA processing consistent with the intent of the RFC.

The following motion has been proposed by Corey Bonnell of Trustwave and 
endorsed by Tim Hollebeek of Digicert and Mads Egil Henriksveen of Buypass.

-- MOTION BEGINS --
This ballot modifies the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management 
of Publicly-Trusted Certificates” as follows, based upon Version 1.5.6:

In section 3.2.2.8, add this sentence:
CAs MAY treat a non-empty CAA Resource Record Set that does not contain any 
issue property tags (and also does not contain any issuewild property tags when 
performing CAA processing for a Wildcard Domain Name) as permission to issue, 
provided that no records in the CAA Resource Record Set otherwise prohibit 
issuance.

to the end of this paragraph:
When processing CAA records, 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. Additional property tags MAY be 
supported, but MUST NOT conflict with or supersede the mandatory property tags 
set out in this document. CAs MUST respect the critical flag and not issue a 
certificate if they encounter an unrecognized property with this flag set.

-- MOTION ENDS –

The procedure for approval of this ballot is as follows:
Discussion (7+ days)
  Start Time: 2018-03-07 19:00:00 UTC
  End Time: 2018-04-03 19:00:00 UTC

Vote for approval (7 days)
  Start Time: 2018-04-03 19:00:00 UTC
  End Time: 2018-04-10 19:00:00 UTC
