Revision as of 18:44, 24 September 2010

Rockett summarized a call with Linux Foundation legal group, the Member Counsel. (Kim, Kate, JohnE and PhilO also participated.) The Member Council has been aware of standardization efforts for a couple of year and this call was to provide status. A number of the participants were new to the MC, so it was important to get them up to speed. They encouraged us to provide them with an example.

ACTION ITEMS

Kate- Transfer document (.pdf) back to WIKI. IN PROCESS; FORMATTING IS A BEAST
Kim (formerly Kate)- Clean up the sharing analysis to what is accurate. IN PROCESS
JeffL (w/Bill/Gary- Update zlib based on new specification IN PROCESS
KimW- Sent rollout slides to mailing list DONE
RDF Group- Work out syntax for 5.6/5.7 IN PROCESS ON RECOMMENDATION
Bill S- Add Ed W to the RDF group DONE
Kate- Track and (when Wiki is back up) implement changes described in Spec section below. WAITING FOR WIKI
PeterW- Implement issue tracking system. TO BE DISCUSSED.

New

Phil R- Update Industry Events.
Kate- Draft example for LF Member Counsel; include XML and corresponding spreadsheet (or spreadsheet-like) format.

TECHNICAL

Agenda

Spec update- Kate
RDF work group update - Bill
Tools repository - Gary/Kate/Bill
Licenses: special working session on Friday at 12 CDT

Spec

Formatting difficulties have slowed getting the spec back in the Wiki. That's in process. Kate will add 5.6/5.7.

RDF

Work group is in process defining the ontology. Using knodle site: <a href="http://knoodl.com/ui/groups/SPDX/vocab/SPDX(dev-only);jsessionid=16BABC384D81ECF9EC6DC52C93977C3E">http://knoodl.com/ui/groups/SPDX/vocab/SPDX(dev-only);jsessionid=16BABC384D81ECF9EC6DC52C93977C3E</a>

Tools & Infrastructure

Linux Foundation has agreed to make the source code revision infrastructure (git based) available to SPDX tools. There will be a meeting next week between Gary, Ibrahim, Kate to discuss the logistics in more details. The first project will be Gary's Pretty Printer (which has components that can be reused in other projects).

Request was made on the list for an issue tracker. Current mechanism is a WIKI, but it was felt something more formal would give us better history. After group discussion and the willingness of Peter to volunteer to adminster it (thanks Peter!), we will be looking at setting up a bugzilla system. Options on where it can be hosted (linux foundation?), will be investigated by Kate. Goal would be that this could be used for the SPDX tools as well.

There's a fair amount to be done, but it is now well framed. There will likely be a different thread of meetings on rollout issues (vs. spec completion) starting after a face to face meeting in mid-November. Some of the areas that need work would benefit from skills from outside the current group, so please think about others in your organization that might help. </p><h3 style="margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 0px; color: #4d4d4d; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; text-transform: capitalize; padding: 0px;">Issue Tracking</h3><p style="margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #666666; line-height: 18px; font-weight: normal; padding: 0px;">We agreed that we should implement an issue tracking system for spec issues.

There was agreement that we should go ahead with this in concept and that the RDF group would work out the syntax.</p><p style="margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #666666; line-height: 18px; font-weight: normal; padding: 0px;">Revisit 3.3 To deal with the recursive problem (wanting to include the SPDX file in a package but also wanting it to include a SHA-1 for the package) there has been a proposal based off of the SHA-1s of all the other files in the package. Kate is looking for others interested in this, to brainstorm with as to algorithms to generate this new package level checksum.   We got into a discussion of "unique identifier" vs. "validator" and it became clear our nomenclature needs to be cleaned up to indicate that this is a validator and not an identifier. Someone proposed "Package Check Sum" as the name of the field and there was agreement. Kate will clean up the language requested more discussion on the maillist of the technical approach.</p><p style="margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #666666; line-height: 18px; font-weight: normal; padding: 0px;">Appendices- The RDF group identified the need for an ontology and an XML schema appendix.   Place holders for these will be added to the WIKI.  RDF GroupThere was a good kickoff meeting last Thursday. Most of the discussion was about approaches and concerns. Both an ontology and a schema are to be the targeted outputs from this subgroup.  Bill has since found a collaborative ontology site that will be useful in the development.   </p><h3 style="margin-top: 5px;
