The previous meeting minutes were sent yesterday. Approval of those minutes will be done at the next meeting.


Topic: Certificate Profiles


  *   Corey asked where this document is going to live going forward. This is currently in Ryan Sleevi's GitHub repository. Ryan has left Google and is no longer participating in the CA/B Forum. The concern with continuing to use Ryan's repository is that we'd need to ask him to approve Pull Requests.
  *   Ben Wilson suggested that we move the document as a branch under the Server Cert repository in GitHub. Corey had a similar thought and agreed with Ben.
  *   Corey and Ben agreed that we would pull from Ryan's branch and push a fork to the Server Cert repo.
  *   Corey said there's a chance that we can lose the comments in the current branch if we move
  *   Clint asked if we should just leave it where it is since it may be very close to being completed.
  *   Trev asked if we'd be better off moving now so that any new discussions will be captured in the new place. We can ask Ryan Sleevi if he can keep the old repo online until we are done with the work to preserve the comments if they happen to be lost with the move.
  *   There were no concerns raised from the group with moving to the new repo and we will do that


Topic: Pandoc tooling

  *   Corey mentioned that Ryan Sleevi had done a significant amount of work with the pandoc tooling, which improves the robustness of table generation in PDFs and Word documents. This is especially important for the current work on the Profiles ballot that uses a tabular based format. The fixes that Ryan did into the mainline version of the github actions workflow that we have.
  *   Corey suggested that we move the pandoc tooling into our github space
  *   Corey suggested that this may be a better discussion for Infrastructure Subcommittee, but that the Validation Subcommittee is directly impacted now.


Topic: f2f Conclusions

  *   Corey asked for input on what approach to use to divide the work that we've identified in the f2f. There was no input.
  *   Side discussion about f2f meeting minutes
     *   Hubert asked if the minutes were still available from the f2f.
     *   Corey said the draft minutes should be available on the wiki in Etherpad. We are still waiting for the final minutes to be published.
     *   Trev provided the link to the f2f agenda page which links to the draft and final minutes: https://wiki.cabforum.org/meeting_56_agenda
  *   Corey will gather the action items and send to the mailing list. We can divide the work on the mailing list.
