  • IP/Legal Discussions: IPZilla closed group is up. In bug 214133, Martin asks whether having the link under the following areas of the portal is sufficient:

Summary

Martin was unable to attend, so Wayne initiated the call.

BIRT project was not represented on the call. Neither was the Eclipse project; MikeQ dropped off due to the late start.

Status of Martin and Michael's deliverables unknown.

Mik has not been able to do the architectural walkthrough of Mylyn. We very briefly discussed the format of the document and lamented the fact that we don't currently have a template to base it on. The Mylyn document will end up being the template.

Most of the top-level projects report that their incubating projects are sufficiently mentored. The Technology and Tools projects still have many unmentored projects. Doug Schaefer, representing the Tools PMC, and Wayne, representing the Technology PMC, agreed to continue efforts to pressure projects into finding mentors.

Dave promises to send out links of sample pages to base AC pages on.

Mik will add Mylyn Bug Reporting Demo to EclipseCon meeting when agenda available.

We discussed access to the IPZilla legal questions channel from the Portal. Our belief is that many/most committers do not make common use of the portal and so would not find this channel. Dave Carver suggested that we include a link from the Wiki. We discussed that, since IPZilla is only accessible by committers, this is probably okay.

We reviewed the EclipseCon AC meeting timing. We agreed that pizza sounds good.

It was proposed that we cancel the March 11th AC meeting since we'll be meeting two weeks later at EclipseCon anyway. Group opted to keep the meeting.
