Legal Team/Minutes/2014-08-07

Attendees

1) SPDX License List v1.20

2) Tasks for 2.0 - update on tasks

license expression syntax (Mark) - we have a draft, Mark to re-send to legal list for review via email and discussion on next call
- may need a FAQ - Mark offered to start this; will start on a Google doc so others can contribute and we can consider where this should live - if spdx.org is more for consumers, should probably go there - will discuss further exactly where it would go best, probably in the License List section - do we need to add a page or nav link, etc.? --> Mark to start in next couple days and will send link to Google doc to legal list
reviewing the draft of the spec itself, generally and for reference to license expression syntax (Tom V.) - waiting for spec version, check back after LinuxCon (last week of Aug)
review of website (Paul) - done
license matching templates (Jilayne) --> bring any remaining question to next legal call
license list itself - identifying licenses to be deprecated and marking as such (Jilayne)
exception list (Dennis) - ready to go if going with conservative - 2.0, 2.1, and 2.n
- we had decided to take a conservative approach and not add any new exceptions for the 2.0 release to err on the side of caution
education? this is a big shift, should we do a webinar? or something to that effect?
- probably need to give people several opportunities to ask questions; FAQs will help with this
- timing for a webinar - right after the spec comes out seems like a good time
