- Record of attendees made and listed above.
- Permission to record
- Request to record made - granted recording attached above.
- Agenda review and location of input contributions.
- Summary of status and IPR discussion points in AN MSDO Summary20210816.pptx adjusted during meeting.
- IPR proposal for joint work items:
- Overview
- Goal is to create a copyright and license agreement for jointly produced works i.e. White papers as proposed in the work packages. ( Not intended to cover LoI see later).
- Agreement is we to make this a per deliverable work package agreement rather than an multi SDO comprehensive liaison agreement. Reason is not all SDO may contribute to all WP so make is simpler and quicker to set up.
- Proposal to convene a SDO legal team meeting In first or second week of September.
- This was generally applauded and noted that the legal agreement might have an impact on what goes in the Work package results.
- Noted we will need to give the legal representative some scope statement of what we are trying to achieve i.e creating work package outputs that take in SDO member agreed documents carrying out some analysis and critique with observations and recommendations ( i.e not creating standards or being a SDO).
- AP Dave Milham will send out letter of invitation to the Formal SDO representative for the legal representatives meeting
- Noted that the IPR arrangement for Letter of Intent (LoI) should be handled separately as this more like statement of direction ( like press release)
- Agreement that we need to progress both the Letter of Intent and the legal discussion for work package output concurrently. However, we probable probably need to agree the LoI before finalizing the WP outputs.
- Overview
- Feedback on Letter of Intent (formerly MoU)
- LoI announcement of work
- Noted that some confusion over scope of work proposed.
- Need to set a deadline for initial comments.
- Suggestion is 6th Sept, so that we can start to process comments and update the proposal in response to feedback.
- Noted that current version is open to interpretation and could be thought of as setting up a new SDO and developing concrete specifications.
- Agreed that this was not the intention - The goals of WPs are analysis of current situation and provide a report on issues and possible harmonization resolution . e.g convergence of AN Levels definitions.
- Really important to clarify scope of work and deliverable outputs.
- Agreements needed to share, review and approve the Joint White Paper.
- Need comments on the LoI by 6th September, so we can review and update the proposal.
- Also important in a letter of intent to make sure that we set expectations accurately and not overpromise. I.e aim for simplicity and limited scope.
- Press release is something we can decide separately after we have an agreed LoI.
