Hello Ben,
At F2F58
<https://cabforum.org/2023/03/02/minutes-of-the-f2f-58-meeting-in-ottawa-canada-28-february-1-march-2023/>we
had a discussion about the lessons learned from ballot SC60
<https://cabforum.org/wp-content/uploads/11-CABF_Lessons-learned-from-SC60.pdf>.
During that meeting, a proposal was made that seems to fix the ambiguity
of the current Bylaws.
In line 93 of the proposed ballot, it says:
/**(d)** There is a mandatory six-month probationary period during
which any representative of an Applicant must attend at least 30% of
all SCWG teleconferences (not counting subcommittee meetings) and at
least one SCWG face-to-face meeting (either physically or virtually).
After successful completion of the mandatory probationary period and
meeting all requirements of section 3(a) or 3(b), an Applicant may
become a Voting Member, if the SCWG determines by consensus among the
Members during a Meeting or Teleconference, or upon the request of any
Member, by a Ballot among the Members, that the Applicant meets the
requirements of section 3(a) or 3(b). Acceptance by consensus shall be
determined, or a Ballot of the Members shall be held, as soon as the
Applicant indicates that it has presented all information required and
has responded to all follow-up questions from the SCWG and the
Applicant has complied with the requirements of Section 5.5 of the
CA/Browser Forum Bylaws./
Instead of:
/"or upon the request of any Member, by a Ballot among the Members, by a
Ballot among the Members, that the Applicant meets the requirements of
section 3(a) or 3(b)" /
please update to:
/"or upon the request of any Member that challenges the Applicant's
adherence to all of the requirements of section 3(a) or 3(b), by a
Ballot among the Members."/
I read the rest of the proposed changes and they look good. If you are
ok with the change above, HARICA would be happy to endorse the ballot.
Best regards,
Dimitris.

All,
I am planning to introduce a Forum ballot to amend the Server
Certificate Working Group Charter.
At a high level, here are some of the proposed changes:
* Section numbering added
* "Root Certificate Issuer" voting category removed
* Membership requirements for Certificate Consumers added
* 6-month probationary period prior to voting membership added
* Voting percentages and quorum clarified
Because there are numerous proposed changes, here are a diff and a
blob for your review.
