---++++ Previous Minutes
Dave G moved and Ray seconded the approval of the [[P1735Minutes2013Mar18][March 18, 2013]] minutes.   The motion was approved. 

---++++ Action Item Review
Steven reviewed the open action items.

---++++ Liaison Reports
John reported on liaison ballot outreach to the P1076 group.  Jim Lewis has asked John and Jarek to assist them in formulating the list if concerns.

John has also discussed opportunities to present the same outreach to P1800 but is waiting for meeting info.

The working group discussed concerns around central definition of IP markup.

---++++ Inter-operability
The group discussed how to clarify the Version 1 recommendations to make them more accessible to industry.  Jarek agreed to draft the introductory text and pointers to the Version 1 recommendations so that a reader can easily find the relevant details.

Jarek noted that diagrams were helpful to understanding our draft, and asked what it would take to incorporate those.

---++++ License Management
Dave G is working on internal review of D3 text.

---++++ Key Management


---++++ Rights Management
Dave G is working on internal review of D3 text.

---++++ Common Rights and Visibility
John is completing a definition for a visibility pragma, and is revising the text that discusses "future" work to avoid prohibited language.

---++++ Work Plan
Jeff asked about the schedule for ballot. Steven and Joe noted that balloting would need to start by mid-summer, and that outreach at DAC would have a limited window for recruiting ballot group participation.

John suggested that the ballot group formation should be left open longer than one month, and that the list of current entity members of IEEE SA should be reviewed for potential ballot group members. A possible schedule would be to open ballot group formation at the beginning of May and hold it open until the third week of June.

Joe reminded the group that liaison review comments are due back next Friday, and this also applies to working group internal review for D3/D3a.

John and Dave G identified possible venues at DAC where topics of interest to P1735 might be discussed.

Dave G asked about including statements about material that was not included or would be covered in future P1735 work.  Joe suggested that statements about material not included should be left out of the draft, but that up to 5 exceptions might be acceptable.  Steven pointed out that similar statements could be included in the cover letter to the ballot to avoid possible difficulty with IEEE review and publication.

---+++++ High-level objectives:

   * Complete all approval activity in 2013 before PAR expires (2013)
   * Secure pre-ballot feedback from other DASC working groups

---+++++ Project Plan:

   * Distribute D3 draft for liaison review in mid-February
      * Revised content for D3 must be submitted to Joe by 11-Feb-2013
      * D3 to be distributed to liaison groups by 20-Feb-2013
      * Any material that is still unstable should be tagged with an inline note to the liaison reviewers
      * Noted material should be revised for mid-review update as D3a by 25-Feb-2013 (delivery to Joe)
      * Any updated D3a clauses will be supplied to liaison reviewers by 01-Mar-2013
      * Liaison review period to close by 12-Apr-2013

   * Incorporate review comments into D4 draft for working group review
      *  Changes for D4 must be submitted by 15-Apr-2013 (delivery to Joe)
      * Working group review closes 29-Apr-2013 with a decision to approve D4 as the ballot draft or revise further as D5.
       
   * Balloting and review
      * *This schedule needs to be updated, pending the depth of the liaison review comments*
      * If D4 is approved as ballot draft, and ballot period starts 01-May-2013, we have a slim chance at making the August REVCOM agenda
      * Ballot group formation to close before 15-Apr-2013 in preparation for possible D4 ballot.
      * Assumptions:
         * Submission deadline for August REVCOM is 12-Jul-2013
         * Need approval of D4 as ballot draft and no substantive ballot comments that require recirc
         * 30-day ballot period requires a minimum of 45 days from working group approval of ballot draft
         * 10-day recirc period requires a minimum of 15 days from ballot comment disposition
         * Ballot comment dispositioning and incorporating draft updates accepted by the working group will add to the timeline
         * Current technical editing statement of work (contract and budget) will still be valid if D5 is completed and approved for ballot in May.
         * Failure to complete balloting/recirc by September will risk missing the December REVCOM agenda and force another PAR extension.
