This proposed change by Ryan is not changing the content not adding/removing 
anything. The issue is due to the artifacts and the generating of the PDF. If 
you review that proposal, you´ll see that is to harmonize the GitHub and PDF 
styles.

Perhaps I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying, but changing the 
formatting/content will require a new version of the ballot with associated new 
discussion period and voting period. This should be clear from Bylaws 2.4 (8), 
as modifying arbitrary formatting does not fall within the allowed set of 
post-voting changes that can be performed by the (Vice) Chair.

Some members do see the formatting of these documents as significant and will 
vote accordingly. See [1] for a recent example.

 

I agree with Dimitris: if this formatting change is to be included, then the 
ballot redline needs to be updated to incorporate the changes and the 
appropriate commits included in the immutable link. To do otherwise will likely 
result in confusion, as members will be unsure on what they’re voting on.

 

Thanks,

Corey

Well, my interpretation is that this is not changing the ballot itself, the 
redline still remains the same (there´s no change in that redline) and only if 
this ballot passes, at the end, and before publishing, and considered section 
2.4, item 8, the chair of the CWG can perform some changes that do not change 
anything without requiring a ballot procedure, so I guess there´s nothing to 
vote/discuss there. The change proposed by Ryan is just a simple issue with the 
format and it´s not changing the content nor anything else.

 Inconsistent document formatting (Markdown vs PDF) · Issue #462 ·

Inigo,

You started the voting period on a specific ballot that has a specific redline 
<https://url.avanan.click/v2/___https:/github.com/cabforum/servercert/compare/90a98dc7c1131eaab01af411968aa7330d315b9b...b72da7a87955aed81d14f9fe96ee222098fd4264___.YXAzOmRpZ2ljZXJ0OmE6bzpkNzA5N2FlMjBlMDk4NmRkY2NiY2JmNjRlMGI1NDJhOTo2OjJmNTc6MmVjNGFmY2RlODE2YjY5ZmMyODg2NGIxZjJlODMzNmFiN2I3ZGJlZjBkNGI0YTlkMGQxYzdkYmUzMmU5YTY3NzpoOkY>
 . That means you cannot make any changes without invoking a new 7-days 
discussion period. Unfortunately, since you started the voting period there is 
nothing you can do but either let the ballot fail or withdraw it. Withdrawing a 
ballot is a new addition to the Bylaws in section 2.3 (4)

A proposer may withdraw a ballot containing defective language at any point 
during the voting period 



According to the Bylaws, the voting period ends 7 days after the voting starts, 
so that would be 7 days from TODAY (2023-10-19), which means that the voting 
ends at 2023-10-26. The information at the bottom of the page should have been 
updated.

I'd appreciate a confirmation from at least another person that is familiar 
with the Bylaws about whether my interpretation is accurate or not.


Best regards,
Dimitris.
