Liaison Review Comments

1. John discussed his proposed Annex X, which incorporates the text on future consideration. Steven
2. John still owes a refresh on his D3a clauses.
3. Dave G is still chasing internal consensus on the remaining clauses.
4. Dave G is considering what might be said about licensing in Annex X, and suggested that combining licensing with decrypt rights could help provide a solution strategy for managing key revocation. Devin noted that they use licensing to open advanced support for incompletely validated design flows.

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 [COMPLETED]
  • D3 to be distributed to liaison groups by 20-Feb-2013 [COMPLETED]
  • Any material that is still unstable should be tagged with an inline note to the liaison reviewers [COMPLETED]
  • Noted material should be revised for mid-review update as D3a by 25-Feb-2013 (delivery to Joe) [COMPLETED]
  • Any updated D3a clauses will be supplied to liaison reviewers by 01-Mar-2013 [COMPLETED]
  • 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.
  • MEC review requires 30 days and must be completed prior to ballot, initial target is 21-May-2013

• 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-Jul-2013, we should be able to make the December REVCOM agenda
  • Ballot group formation to close before 21-Jun-2013 in preparation for possible D4 ballot.
  • Assumptions:
    • Submission deadline for December REVCOM is 21-Oct-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.
