Ballot FORUM-18, Allow Re-election of CWG Chairs and Vice Chairs



Proposed by Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and endorsed by Ben Wilson of Mozilla and 
??? of ???.



Overview


The current Bylaws have been read by some to allow re-election of CWG Chairs 
and Vice Chairs, and by others to prohibit it.  It has happened once in the 
past, and whether it is allowed depends on whether "follow the procedures of 
Bylaws Section 4.1 as closely as possible" is merely referring to election 
procedures, or also candidate qualifications.



This ambiguity was discussed during the spring CA/Browser Forum Face-to-face 
meeting, and the consensus was that we should update the Bylaws to clarify that 
re-election is allowed, and the election process itself is sufficient to 
determine whether members want to retain the existing Chair and/or Vice Chair, 
or whether they want to vote for someone else.  This is important because the 
pool of qualified and willing candidates is not particularly large.



This ballot retains term limits at the Forum level.
