Greetings again,

As I'd pointed out earlier this year [1][2], the CA/Browser Forum (CABF) was 
entertaining organisational reform proposals. It recently completed its final 
voting exercise [3] and decided on a governance reform proposal [4]. Also, the 
CABF has created a publicly readable email distribution list [5].

One overall assessment of the reform voting results is here..

Certificate Authorities asked to step up for Internet security;
CABF takes a step back instead.  (5-Oct-2012)
