Subject: [EXTERNAL][Servercert-wg] Ballot SC9 v4 – Establish the Validation 
Subcommittee of the SCWG

Here is an updated version of this ballot that will allow the Validation WG to 
continue as a Subcommittee after the October 3rd sunset for Legacy Working 
Groups that is built into our new bylaws. I have attempted to incorporate the 
feedback received on Kirk's earlier versions of the ballot into this version. 
Note that v3 of this ballot was never circulated.

I am beginning the discussion period for this ballot immediately in hopes that 
we can get this passed 2 weeks from today and avoid any temporary gap in which 
the Validation Subcommittee does not formally exist. I would appreciate it if 
you would review this ASAP and provide any feedback that might require us to 
restart the discussion period.

=================
Purpose of Ballot

The Validation Working Group of the CA/Browser Forum will expire on October 3, 
2018 under the provisions of the new Bylaws adopted in Ballot 206.  The Server 
Certificate Working Group wishes to establish a Validation Subcommittee 
pursuant to the provisions of Bylaws Section 5.3.1(e). This ballot is based on 
the language in Ballot 143 which was approved by the Forum Members for formally 
establishing the legacy Validation Working Group in 2015: 
https://www.cabforum.org/wiki/143%20-%20Formalization%20of%20validation%20working%20group

The following motion has been proposed by Wayne Thayer of Mozilla and endorsed 
by Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and Dimitris Zacharopoulos of HARICA.

The Server Certificate Working Group hereby establishes the Validation 
Subcommittee as an official Subcommittee of the Server Certificate Working 
Group (SCWG).

guidelines maintained by the SCWG.

* End Date: This Subcommittee shall continue until such time as it is dissolved 
by a ballot of the SCWG.

adopted CA/Browser Forum guidelines and requirements related to the validation

* Effect of SCWG Charter or Forum Bylaws Amendment for Subcommittees: In the

Additional Information (not part of ballot)

* Ballot 143 – Formalization of Validation Working Group (approved Feb 2015)
https://www.cabforum.org/wiki/143%20-%20Formalization%20of%20validation%20working%20group

The CA-Browser Forum formally establishes the Validation Working Group as an 
official working group of the CAB Forum, replacing the previous informal EV 
working group. The scope of this working group is to address issues arising 
under adopted CAB Forum standards related to the validation of certificate 
information and the inclusion of information in certificates.

Scope: The Validation Working Group will consider all matters relating to the 
validation and inclusion of information in certificates under adopted CAB Forum 
guidelines.

Deliverables: The Working Group shall produce one or more documents offering 
options to the Forum for validation within the scope defined above.


* Bylaws v1.9

5.3.1 Formation of Chartered Working Groups
(e) CWGs may establish any number of subcommittees within its own Working Group 
to address any of such CWG’s business (each, a “Subcommittee”). A CWG-created 
Subcommittee needs to be approved by the CWG itself according to the approval 
process set forth in the CWG charter, but approval of the Forum is not 
necessary.  Subcommittees must exist under an approved CWG.
