Bhasker (eSilicon) Agenda: ======= Call to order - Attendance Roll Call - Patent Policy and Letters of Assurance - Approve Agenda - Approve Minutes of Last Meeting Old Business Subcommittee Reports New Business - Roll call vote to approval to move to IEEE ballot (this is a WG voting process) Next Meeting Adjourn - Attendance Roll Call Call to order: ============== The meeting was called to order at 8:05am PST. Attendance was recorded via roll call. The IEEE patent policy slides were presented. The working group was advised that the IEEE's Patent Policy is consistent with the ANSI patent policy; that early disclosure of patents which may be essential for the use of standards under development is encouraged; that such disclosures may not be exhaustive; and that the IEEE, the working group, and the working group chair cannot ensure the accuracy or completeness of any disclosure. An opportunity was provided for the working group members to disclose patents that might be essential for use of PSL. No patents were disclosed. Old Action Items: ================= none. New Action Items: ================= none. Old Business: ============= none. Subcommittee Reports: ===================== none. New Business: ============= A motion was made (and seconded) to "move the P1850 LRM to the Sponsor Ballot process". The chair declared a roll call vote to approve this motion--results are as follows: Members: Y Cadence (DR: Erich Marschner) (rep. by DRA: Steve Ward) Y IBM (DR: Yaron Wolfsthal) Y Mentor Graphics (DR: Steve Bailey) (rep. by DRA: Tej Singh) Y Synopsys (DR: Surrendra Dudani) Y Nokia (DR: Jari Kalinainen) Y Jasper (DR: Johan Mårtenson) Y Sun (DR: Tom Thatcher) Y Intel (DR: Alex Levin) The motion was approved unanimously. The Balloting process will begin on April 15, for 30 days. We will not have another meeting until mid-May (around the time that the Balloting has completed). A question was raised concerning balloting to approve the LRM (that is, a positive vote) while also submitting comments. That is, would the comments be addressed? The chair stated that "all submitted comments through the balloting processed would be addressed". Noelle pointed out that generally working groups save up a list if typo's and text-editing issues for the IEEE tech-editors to correct, and the working group then focuses on fixing technical errors. Note that any edit/change to the LRM during the Balloting process would require a recirculation to approve the edited change. Non-voting entities can formally submit comments to the IEEE balloting process--and Noelle agreed to send out details on how this is done. Next Meeting: ============= TBA -- sometime in Mid-May. Adjournment =========== The meeting was adjourned at approximately 8:20am PDT. ======================================================================== ==== Best regards, -Harry --- Harry D.
