== Legal Team Report - Jilayne/Paul/Steve ==

* Working for 3.13, planning to push out over the weekend
* Have been trying to clean up old issues
* Some updates on documentation in the repo
* New participants recently – some discussions on recent calls have included reviewing past history; may want to put together more historical documentation of past context, etc.
* Some interest from Debian – interest in getting a Debian-free tickbox into the license list
* License submissions – starting to take a harder line on participation from people submitting license requests without sticking with them. For this release, started asking people to create the PR’s themselves – a few of the submitters at least responded and indicated they would do so
* Still relying on the calls too much; having people commenting in issues out-of-band would be very helpful

== Outreach Team Report - Kate ==

* Continuing to see interest in SPDX across different communities
* Zephyr – auto-generation
* Possible interest in re-starting Outreach team meetings – Sebastian interest, Aveek also
* Kate will reach out to Jack and either ask him to restart or else Kate will restart

== Other Topics ==

* Sebastian – interest in Arch Linux in using SPDX
** Some work being done on the Arch packaging system, interest in using SPDX licenses
* Jitsi
** Jilayne - Jitsi – this has gone well, plan to update to this for future General calls
** Legal and Tech teams can update if/when they choose
** Europe, UK, etc. seems to be working
** Bob – recommend putting passwords on it
** Steve – discuss whether to put one on. Possible but appears to prevent dial-ins afterwards.
*** Steve will look into options
