Agenda¶

Discuss proposal from Steve Cropper for Supplier related fields
Review open bugs

Supplier fields¶

The team had a good discussion about the new proposed Supplier fields, including discussion of:

Optional vs. Mandatory
Reasons for including in GA of 1.0 rather than waiting
Overlap with need for handling package hierarchies
Affect on tools
suggested that tools could be udpated after GA date
Use cases, including
open source package maintained by loose coalition where no individual has clear ownership
open source package where original copyright owner has died
package shared between supply chain partners
Discussed providing special options as we do for certain other fields such as NOASSERTION, NONE, and possibly ORPHANED

Spec update¶

waiting for trademark info from Rockett
waiting for input from Karen C. on confidentiality

Bug review¶

We ran out of time to review the bug list, but ask that everyone

review for any open P1s assigned to them
review closed bugs to be sure we're in agreement

Corrections, additions welcome.
