[Servercert-wg] Document Versioning

I don’t think ballot authors should be handle versioning of documents.  Previously, they have not.

 

I think any change to this procedure needs to be discussed with the membership at large and not unilaterally made by individual ballot authors.

As you already said, it's best to disconnect the discussion about a ballot related to shortening the lifetime of certificates and other administrative issues like the versioning scheme.

 

Just to be clear: You're objecting to the Ballot, which complies with the Bylaws, because you don't like that it tries to avoid a long-standing issue in the Forum?


Nope, I object because it creates the risk of messing up the versioning of the Guidelines if a proposer picks up any number they like :-)

I'd be curious to hear how others feel about this.


Dimitris.
