Hello all, This is a request for feedback for this draft ballot.
Thank you, Dustin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Purpose of Ballot SC-067 This ballot proposes updates to the Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates related to Subscriber Agreements and Terms of Use. It combines the requirements for both into only the Subscriber Agreement and clarifies the requirement language. It removes the requirement and reference to "Terms of Use". It also modifies details related to Subscriber, Applicant, and representatives for them. Notes: • This removes any ambiguity to ensure that there is no requirement that the Subscriber Agreement be legally enforceable when the CA and Subscriber are affiliated. • This updates definitions for “Applicant”, “Subscriber” and “Subscriber Agreement” and removes the definition for “Terms of Use” as these separate concepts are creating unnecessary work for CAs and Subscribers without adding any value when separated. • This adds a new definition for “Applicant/Subscriber” to account for scenarios where a person or entity may be either. And renames “Applicant Representative” to “Applicant/Subscriber Representative” and updated definition to account for reseller scenarios. • As observed with other ballots in the past, minor administrative updates must be made to the proposed ballot text before publication such that the appropriate Version # and Change History are accurately represented (e.g., to indicate these changes will be represented in Version 2.0.2). • This ballot does not modify the “Guidelines for the Issuance and Management of Extended Validation Certificates”. More work will be made to that document after changes are finalized in this one. The following motion has been proposed by Dustin Hollenback of Microsoft, and endorsed by Tadahiko Ito of SECOM and Ben Wilson of Mozilla. — Motion Begins — This ballot modifies the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates” (“Baseline Requirements”), based on Version 2.0.1.
