Action Item Review

Steven reviewed the open action items.

Project plan was distributed, and will be discussed under the Work Plan item below.

2013 Funding approval was sent out and invoices have been distributed to the DRs.

Liaison Reports

P1800 waiting for publication P1076 still not active on encryption issues

Steven summarized the report he gave to the recent DASC meeting.

Inter-operability

Dave G noted that the current Interoperability Registry contains encoded keys which don't match the latest consensus for encoding in common base64 format.

License Management

Dave G acknowledged receiving feedback and is currently working through the material.

Key Management

Steven is working on a D3 update that reflects feedback recieved on this clause.

Rights Management

Dave G has responded to feedback and has not yet published an updated clause based on that feedback.

Common Rights and Visibility

Dave G expressed concern that the current form of the Visibility proposal doesn't have consensus within the working group that would justify sending it for liaison review at this time.

Work Plan

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 29-Mar-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
  • 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.
