Preliminaries

At 20:04 UTC Brian took chair and opened the meeting.

Karl-Heinz does the Minutes.

We placed a soft timelimit of 90 minutes.

Minutes from last meeting were accepted with motion m20180405.1

Business

We are still waiting for an answer of our PO. Not sure how OFT will react.

We created an ad-hoc committee for PR and installed Alex as leader (m20180407.1). Alex needs volunteers, especially needs translators. (de, en, es). Etienne and Karl-Heinz volunteered to help.

Etienne reported that, at behalf on the GDPR possibly causing fines from 2018-05-29, there was built a special small working group.

About Bug 1260 Make the source compatible with recent PHP versions we still are waiting for a response from Dirk. May be we should create a completely new Test-system and Test-manager-system instead of waiting for searching lost passwords.

With Bug 1417 unable to generate certificate Peter Y. confirmed, keygenmacro in browsers is deprecated, he has reached a point where he needs access to the test system. He needs to get in contact with Dirk. Karl-Heinz gave a short summary how a solution could be. We agreed to exchange ideas on this subject on CAcert-devel@lists.cacert.org to involve also the other possible developers.

Bug 1432 since september, 8th, 2017 CAs must check DNS' CAA records could be delayed at the moment.

Expiring certificates where nothing to say about as this problem was already solved by critical group.

Etienne pointed us a link to https://ec.europa.eu/inea/en/connecting-europe-facility/cef-telecom/apply-funding/2018-eid

Brian agreed to do the reading and give a short summary to board-private.

Karl-Heinz pointed to http://wiki.cacert.org/Brain/CAcertInc/Committee/MeetingAgendasAndMinutes/2018-03-01/ideas#A12_Campaign to get some advise
