---++++ Attendance/Quorum

We have 4/5 eligible entities, and have a working quorum.

---++++ Patent Policy

The [[http://standards.ieee.org/board/pat/pat-slideset.pdf][Patent slides]] were offered for review.

No new claims were disclosed at the call for essential patent claims.

---++++ Agenda Approval

Motion by John, seconded by Dave C. Motion is approved.

---++++ Previous Minutes

John moved and Ray seconded the approval of the [[P1735Minutes2010July26][July 26, 2010]] minutes. The motion was approved.

---++++ Action Item Review

Steven reviewed the open action items.

---++++ Liaison Reports


---++++ Inter-operability
John moved and Ray seconded a resolution of endorsement from P1735 for the text of SV Mantis 2948. The motion approved.

John will finalize the Mantis submission, and Steven will add a note conveying the P1735 endorsement.

John reviewed the responses to his Visibility Management proposal. He is still working through some of the input.  He noted that obfuscation may be needed to balance requirements to report information while still needing to protect the underlying data.

The working group discussed the challenges of working with protected designs as input to place and route. Encryption-based protection began with simulation, and synthesis and other transformative tools are currently evolving, but the challenges of place&route are still unaddressed. Most of the difficulties seem to derive from lack of visibility across the protection boundaries.



---++++ License Management


---++++ Key Management


---++++ Rights Management
Steven reviewed his progress on a rights management discussion framework.

John noted that we really lack an IP user perspective to balance the IP Producer and Tool Vendor influence in defining rights management.  As an example, private rights can disenfranchise the IP user through lack of competition.  Disclosure that private rights are in force might be a way to put more balance into the market.

---++++ Work Plan


---++++ Other Business
