Marcelo, I think this vote comes in too late - the deadline was 9:00 UTC today, 
which I believe is 5:00 am Eastern, 2:00 am Pacific.  This came in almost 6 
hours after that, so we won't count it.  However, the ballot passed anyway.

Infrastructure Working Group

I've updated the ballot with some suggestions from the group (thanks to 
Virginia and Kirk!). Since we can still squeak in 7 days' discussion period 
before the voting period, I've not changed the voting start date: 20 August. 
The rationalized version including all the changes is below; a red-line version 
highlighting the changes follows it in case anyone wants to know what changed.

Ballot FORUM-1: Establish Forum Infrastructure Working Group

Purpose of Ballot
The CA/Browser Forum has grown considerably over the last few years and is now 
dividing its work into multiple working groups to more carefully address 
specific certificate needs. The responsibilities of managing the various pieces 
components of infrastructure necessary for the Forum to conduct its work, such 
as the wiki and mailing lists, has grown considerably. With immense gratitude 
to each of the Forum members that have helped to provide this infrastructure, 
the work of managing it should no longer be left as a volunteer best-effort 
function of any single Forum member. This ballot would establish a working 
group chartered to help ensure the infrastructure supporting the Forum 
continues to meet its needs.

The following motion has been proposed by Jos Purvis of Cisco and endorsed by 
Tim Hollebeek of Digicert and Wayne Thayer of Mozilla.

- MOTION BEGINS -

Establish Forum Infrastructure Working Group

Upon approval of the CAB Forum by ballot in accordance with section 5.3 of the

conditions of the CA/Browser Forum Bylaws and Intellectual Property Rights 
(IPR) Policy, as such documents may change from time to time. The definitions 
found in the Forum's Bylaws shall apply to capitalized terms in this Charter.

Scope
The authorized scope of the Forum Infrastructure Working Group shall be as 
follows:

  1.  To oversee the acquisition, operation, and maintenance of the common 
CA/Browser Forum website and wiki resources;
  2.  To coordinate updates to public and Forum-facing web and wiki content in 
support of the Forum Webmaster role established in the Bylaws;
  3.  To create and manage the division of access and content spaces required 
to help ensure the separation of the work of various Working Groups and 
accompanying IP commitments, as described in the Forum's IPR Policy;
  4.  To manage the Forum-level email lists and to offer management of 
working-group and subcommittee mailing lists as needed in support of the Forum 
List Manager role established in the Bylaws;
  5.  To perform other activities ancillary to the primary activities listed 
above.

Out of Scope
The following items are considered out of scope for the Working Group under 
this charter:

face-to-face meetings.
  *   The FIWG will not create Final Guidelines or Final Maintenance Guidelines 
as defined in the Bylaws and IPR Policy.

Subject: [cabfpub] (Final? Update) Ballot FORUM-1: Establish Forum 
Infrastructure Working Group

I’ve updated the ballot with some suggestions from the group (thanks to 
Virginia and Kirk!). Since we can still squeak in 7 days’ discussion period 
before the voting period, I’ve not changed the voting start date: 20 August. 
The rationalized version including all the changes is below; a red-line version 
highlighting the changes follows it in case anyone wants to know what changed.

Ballot FORUM-1: Establish Forum Infrastructure Working Group

Purpose of Ballot
The CA/Browser Forum has grown considerably over the last few years and is now 
dividing its work into multiple working groups to more carefully address 
specific certificate needs. The responsibilities of managing the various pieces 
components of infrastructure necessary for the Forum to conduct its work, such 
as the wiki and mailing lists, has grown considerably. With immense gratitude 
to each of the Forum members that have helped to provide this infrastructure, 
the work of managing it should no longer be left as a volunteer best-effort 
function of any single Forum member. This ballot would establish a working 
group chartered to help ensure the infrastructure supporting the Forum 
continues to meet its needs.

The following motion has been proposed by Jos Purvis of Cisco and endorsed by 
Tim Hollebeek of Digicert and Wayne Thayer of Mozilla.

— MOTION BEGINS —

Establish Forum Infrastructure Working Group

Upon approval of the CAB Forum by ballot in accordance with section 5.3 of the 
Bylaws, the Forum Infrastructure Working Group (“FIWG”) is created to perform 
the activities as specified in this Charter, subject to the terms and 
conditions of the CA/Browser Forum Bylaws and Intellectual Property Rights 
(IPR) Policy, as such documents may change from time to time. The definitions 
found in the Forum’s Bylaws shall apply to capitalized terms in this Charter.

Scope
The authorized scope of the Forum Infrastructure Working Group shall be as 
follows:

  1.  To oversee the acquisition, operation, and maintenance of the common 
CA/Browser Forum website and wiki resources;
  2.  To coordinate updates to public and Forum-facing web and wiki content in 
support of the Forum Webmaster role established in the Bylaws;
  3.  To create and manage the division of access and content spaces required 
to help ensure the separation of the work of various Working Groups and 
accompanying IP commitments, as described in the Forum’s IPR Policy;
  4.  To manage the Forum-level email lists and to offer management of 
working-group and subcommittee mailing lists as needed in support of the Forum 
List Manager role established in the Bylaws;
  5.  To perform other activities ancillary to the primary activities listed 
above.

Out of Scope
The following items are considered out of scope for the Working Group under 
this charter:

  *   The FIWG will not address coordination of Forum or Working Group 
face-to-face meetings.
  *   The FIWG will not create Final Guidelines or Final Maintenance Guidelines 
as defined in the Bylaws and IPR Policy.
  *   The FIWG shall provide recommendations of infrastructure acquisition or 
use to the Forum, but shall not impose requirements upon the rest of the Forum.
  *   The FIWG will not address the acquisition or maintenance of software or 
services used for online meetings of the Forum Plenary or Working Groups.
In addition to the above, the work of the FIWG in managing content updates to 
online content shall be offered to Working Groups and Subcommittees, but shall 
not supplant the responsibilities of Forum chairs or members to do so as 
required by the Bylaws.

Anticipated End Date
Given that the work of infrastructure support and management is expected to be 
consistent and ongoing, the FIWG is chartered without a specific end date. 
However, the FIWG may be dissolved at any time through a Forum ballot, as 
specified in the Bylaws, section 5.3.2c.

Personnel and Participation
Initial Chairs and Contacts
The proposer of the ballot, Jos Purvis, will act as chair of the FIWG until the 
first Working Group Teleconference, at which time the group will select a chair 
and vice-chair either through election or acclamation of those present. The 
chair and vice-chair will serve two-year terms, the first of which will start 
upon their election and run through 31 October 2020.

Members Eligible to Participate
The FIWG welcomes the participation of any Member organization of the Forum 
Plenary interested in this work, and also invites Interested Parties and

I’ve updated the ballot with some suggestions from the group (thanks 
to Virginia and Kirk!). Since we can still squeak in 7 days’ 
discussion period before the voting period, I’ve not changed the 
voting start date: 20 August. The rationalized version including all 
the changes is below; a red-line version highlighting the changes 
follows it in case anyone wants to know what changed.


*Ballot FORUM-1: Establish Forum Infrastructure Working Group*

*Purpose of Ballot*

The CA/Browser Forum has grown considerably over the last few years 
and is now dividing its work into multiple working groups to more 
carefully address specific certificate needs. The responsibilities of 
managing the various pieces components of infrastructure necessary for 
the Forum to conduct its work, such as the wiki and mailing lists, has 
grown considerably. With immense gratitude to each of the Forum 
members that have helped to provide this infrastructure, the work of 
managing it should no longer be left as a volunteer best-effort 
function of any single Forum member. This ballot would establish a 
working group chartered to help ensure the infrastructure supporting 
the Forum continues to meet its needs.


The following motion has been proposed by Jos Purvis of Cisco and 
endorsed by Tim Hollebeek of Digicert and Wayne Thayer of Mozilla.


*— MOTION BEGINS —*

*Establish Forum Infrastructure Working Group*

Upon approval of the CAB Forum by ballot in accordance with section 
5.3 of the Bylaws, the Forum Infrastructure Working Group (“FIWG”) is 
created to perform the activities as specified in this Charter, 
subject to the terms and conditions of the CA/Browser Forum Bylaws and 
Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Policy, as such documents may 
change from time to time. The definitions found in the Forum’s Bylaws 
shall apply to capitalized terms in this Charter.


*Scope*

The authorized scope of the Forum Infrastructure Working Group shall 
be as follows:


 1. To oversee the acquisition, operation, and maintenance of the
common CA/Browser Forum website and wiki resources;
 2. To coordinate updates to public and Forum-facing web and wiki
content in support of the Forum Webmaster role established in the
Bylaws;
 3. To create and manage the division of access and content spaces
required to help ensure the separation of the work of various
Working Groups and accompanying IP commitments, as described in
the Forum’s IPR Policy;
 4. To manage the Forum-level email lists and to offer management of
working-group and subcommittee mailing lists as needed in support
of the Forum List Manager role established in the Bylaws;
 5. To perform other activities ancillary to the primary activities
listed above.

*Out of Scope*

The following items are considered out of scope for the Working Group 
under this charter:


  * The FIWG will not address coordination of Forum or Working Group
face-to-face meetings.
  * The FIWG will not create Final Guidelines or Final Maintenance
Guidelines as defined in the Bylaws and IPR Policy.
  * The FIWG shall provide recommendations of infrastructure
acquisition or use to the Forum, but shall not impose requirements
upon the rest of the Forum.
  * The FIWG will not address the acquisition or maintenance of
software or services used for online meetings of the Forum Plenary
or Working Groups.

In addition to the above, the work of the FIWG in managing content 
updates to online content shall be offered to Working Groups and 
Subcommittees, but shall not supplant the responsibilities of Forum 
chairs or members to do so as required by the Bylaws.


*Anticipated End Date*

Given that the work of infrastructure support and management is 
expected to be consistent and ongoing, the FIWG is chartered without a 
specific end date. However, the FIWG may be dissolved at any time 
through a Forum ballot, as specified in the Bylaws, section 5.3.2c.
