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

---++++ Previous Minutes
Jerry moved and John seconded the approval of the [[P1735Minutes2010Nov15][November 15, 2010]] minutes. The motion was approved.

---++++ Action Item Review
Steven reviewed the open action items.  Dave reported closing on several outstanding items.

---++++ Liaison Reports
Steven shared the report he sent to IEEE CAG.

---++++ Inter-operability
The group discussed the implications of Version 1 compatibility for the control block extensions as described in Dave G's email of Nov 17th. Both P1800 and P1076 support extension of pragmas/tool directives, and staying outside of the "protect" pragma/directive will avoid the obvious inter-operability problems.

---++++ License Management


---++++ Key Management


---++++ Rights Management
Dave G asked for feedback on the material that Parminder presented in the previous meetings.  John suggested that a _default control block_ would help to share common expectations across a number of tools.

John asked about the 2 rights proposals that Steven noted in the CAG report.  Steven noted that the VSIA contribution needed to be reconciled with the Synopsys presentation.  Cadence and Xilinx both reported proprietary implementations that carried rights specifications inside the data_block. John asked if Cadence sitll planned to bring the remainder of the data_block contribution forward, and Steven said that was the plan.
