On BR issues 15 and 29, those had been modified a bit by Rick, but after Bruce left Steve Roylance became the owner of it. Dean asked Atsushi to touch base with Steve. Ben asked about whether there was still any confusion between IDNA2003 and IDNA2008. Brad said that we’re moving to IDNA2008, which is good.

September 20, 2012 by Ben WilsonNotes of meeting CAB Forum 20 September 2012 Version 1 Present: Dean Coclin, Ben Wilson, Atsushi Inaba, Rich Smith, Phillip Hallam-Baker, Kirk Hall, Eddy Nigg, Jeremy Rowley, Brad Hill, Gerv Markham, Patricia Forsythe, Robin Alden, Rick Andrews, Bill Maddell Agenda review The agenda was reviewed. Minutes of Meeting 6-Sept-2012 Minutes of 6 September 2012 were approved as published. Ballot status Ballot 89 (Requirements for the Processing of EV SSL Certificates v.2) failed for lack of quorum. Rick noted that Tom had objected to the ballot because he was concerned that it had not been adequately reviewed or modified to incorporate browser comments. Subsequently Rick and Ben had modified and resubmitted a new draft of the requirements during the review period and before voting had begun. They explained that voting did not proceed on Ballot 89 because the sponsor and endorsers felt that the document needed one more review before being voted on. Kirk asked whether voting periods are announced, and Ben explained that the practice has been for voting to begin immediately after the review period without any announcement. Ben said that he would re-send a new ballot with the attached document and announce a review period.
