		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created page with &amp;quot;* Attendance: 12 * Lead by Phil Odence * Minutes of Sept meeting approved (Oct meeting was cancelled due to LinuxCon Europe)   == Special Guest - Lei Mao Hui, Fujitsu ==  * Le...&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;* Attendance: 12&lt;br /&gt;
* Lead by Phil Odence&lt;br /&gt;
* Minutes of Sept meeting approved (Oct meeting was cancelled due to LinuxCon Europe)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Special Guest - Lei Mao Hui, Fujitsu ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lei &lt;br /&gt;
** Working for Fujitu&lt;br /&gt;
** Developing on house Distro&lt;br /&gt;
** Spoke at ALS and Linux Conference about experience with SPDXX&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Reason Fujitsu needs SPDX&lt;br /&gt;
** Want an SPDX file for all their packages&lt;br /&gt;
** Customers ofter require license info&lt;br /&gt;
** Released under GPL3, but includes software under other license as well. Many!&lt;br /&gt;
*** MIT, BSD, GPL2, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
** SPDX is good for this purpose&lt;br /&gt;
** So they added into production Development &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Yocto SPDX&lt;br /&gt;
** Lucky for them that Yocto supports SPDX&lt;br /&gt;
** But the activity on Yocto SPDX has been slow&lt;br /&gt;
** Found some issues when using&lt;br /&gt;
*** Only supports SPDX 1.1&lt;br /&gt;
*** Doesn’t do a great job even with that&lt;br /&gt;
*** Is complex to use; takes a long time&lt;br /&gt;
*** May introduce license conflicts&lt;br /&gt;
** In the end you can download the SPDX &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Fujitsu’s contributions to Yocto SPDX&lt;br /&gt;
** So they did some work to improve:&lt;br /&gt;
*** Created a patch to upgrade to SPDX 1.2&lt;br /&gt;
**** Unfortunately was never accepted into Yocto&lt;br /&gt;
** Would like to upgrade to SPDX 2.0&lt;br /&gt;
** And to improve performance&lt;br /&gt;
** Has been working on some of the SPDX open source tools&lt;br /&gt;
*** including DoSocks developed by UNO&lt;br /&gt;
** Lei has been continuing to submit improvements to Yocto&lt;br /&gt;
*** Improved performance&lt;br /&gt;
** Currently discussing more improvements with Yocto&lt;br /&gt;
** Will be continuing to improve and to upgrade to SPDX 2.1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Question&lt;br /&gt;
** Has yocto been receptive?&lt;br /&gt;
*** Yocto has not been active or focused on SPDX.&lt;br /&gt;
*** Some people have been interested&lt;br /&gt;
*** Not sure why they are not interested&lt;br /&gt;
** Kate will help and follow up&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Tech Team Report - Kate/Gary ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Spec&lt;br /&gt;
** SPDX 2.1 is now released and official&lt;br /&gt;
*** Starting to focus on use cases and tooling&lt;br /&gt;
*** last call was a joint call with the Legal Team&lt;br /&gt;
**** Templetazation focus&lt;br /&gt;
**** Agreed on interfaces between teams&lt;br /&gt;
* Tooling&lt;br /&gt;
** Incorporated results from the bake off&lt;br /&gt;
*** Overall, everyone at the bake off got good feedback, leading to improvement of all tools&lt;br /&gt;
** XML Format&lt;br /&gt;
*** Legal Team has been working on new format for license templates&lt;br /&gt;
*** Makes it easier for multiple contributors&lt;br /&gt;
*** Working now on making it consumable for external tools&lt;br /&gt;
*** Really good progress&lt;br /&gt;
**** Should have draft standards in the next month or two.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Legal Team Report - Jilayne/Paul  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Joint Call with Tech Team&lt;br /&gt;
** Worked on syncing tag names to be consistent with spec&lt;br /&gt;
** Went really well&lt;br /&gt;
* License List&lt;br /&gt;
** Business as usual with new licenses&lt;br /&gt;
** More license requests for licenses in other languages&lt;br /&gt;
** Probably need to have a discussion about how to handle consistently&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Outreach Team Report - Jack ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Website&lt;br /&gt;
** New site is up&lt;br /&gt;
** Jack’s in process of posting new stuff&lt;br /&gt;
* Next agenda&lt;br /&gt;
** Working on new docs, templates, etc&lt;br /&gt;
*** Mostly to help explain aspects of how to use&lt;br /&gt;
*** Trying to assemble list of topics and then prioritize&lt;br /&gt;
*** Very open to ideas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Cross Functional Topics - Phil ==&lt;br /&gt;
