4. Approval of Minutes from Last Teleconference

5. Review of Face-to-Face presentation and feedback
Jos said that he has the following items listed as significant Server Certificate WG accomplishments from last year:
- Completed migration of documents to GitHub and automated publishing process
- Transfer of NetSec subcommittee responsibilities to the new working group
Looking at significant ballots, back in Feb 2021 ballot SC42 changed the validation data reuse period to 398 days.
For the coming year, Jos said that he would like to continue the process of simplifying and clarifying our documents. We will finish transferring the NetSec work to that WG and need to determine how we’ll incorporate the NCSSRs into SCWG requirements. Making GitHub the source of truth for ballots, and integrating GitHub into the documentation publishing process is also a priority.
Bruce Morton said that the EV guidelines are not in RFC 3647 format and it would be nice for that to be aligned.
Jos said that another minor item to address is that the EV guidelines have some formatting differences from the BRs.
Wayne said that he’d like to see the new certificate profiles adopted. Doug Beattie and Corey Bonnell agreed.
Jos said that he would present these items at the face-to-face next week.
