Approval of the Agenda

Motion from Alain, David seconded. No objections and abstentions. Agenda approved.

Administrative issues

• Minutes of November 9 working group meeting
  Request to change the approval of minutes of Nov. 9: motion was from Joachim, David Smith seconded.
  David Smith moved to approve the minutes, Alain seconded. No objections or abstentions. Minutes are approved.
• Publicity
  Next deadline for D&TC (?) is March 2011.
• Financial plan for 2011
  Funding process would change if WG goes to entity-based (EB) organization. David Smith reported on related discussion in the P1076 SG. EB would completely change the openess of the WG and put a lot of restrictions on WG participants. On the other hand, Accellera is not going to fund individual-based WGs anymore. Likely to be the same for EDA companies.
  Action item to Ernst to define next steps on funding and to discuss the issue with WG officers.
  Current WG finance status will allow funding about 10hrs of LRM work (Peter Ashenden). First draft budget for 2011 is about US$ 7K and US$ 6K fro the following years.
• Review of IEEE patent policy
  Ernst offered a review of the IEEE patent policy. Participants waived the review.
• 1076.1.1 revision
  1076.1.1 LRM in ballot. 22 members in ballot group.
• 1076.1 revision
  NesCom submission planned for Feb. 20, 2011 meeting.
