Ryan, you can end this discussion by saying that Google will be the Proposer on the two ballots, Ballot Forum-5 and Ballot SC-5. Will Google be the Proposer of the two Ballots? Google didn’t even vote on our last ballot SC8 for SCWG Chair – I’m not sure why you are so interested in this issue.

Perhaps you can help us understand what you believe supports your position, as Tim has done by pointing out the Bylaws being clear on this, so that we can have a reasoned understanding beyond "Kirk disagrees".

So far, no one has offered to be a Proposer or Endorser of either ballot. If we do not receive enough Proposers and Endorsers for the two ballots, we will proceed with the ballots without them.

The ballot requirements for endorsers and discussion periods applies to _all_ ballots. The bylaws are pretty clear on that; it’s even in the title of section 2.3. The fact that 4.1(c) of the bylaws requires a ballot does not override the usual ballot rules. I really hate to nitpick about things like this, but I felt I had to point it out. Also if we could get a second endorser to fix the voting rules after Ballot 216 got accidentally overwritten, that’d be great. I can write up the ballot over the weekend. -Tim From: Public <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> On Behalf Of Wayne Thayer via Public Sent: Thursday, September 6, 2018 6:55 PM To: Kirk Hall <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; CA/Browser Forum Public Discussion List <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [cabfpub] Ballot SC5: Election of Server Certificate Working Group Vice Chair Bylaws section 2.3 ("General Provisions Applicable to all Ballots") says "Any proposed ballot needs two endorsements by other Members in order to proceed." The language in section 4 describing "confirmation ballots" and "election ballots" appears to fall under this requirement.
