Licensing Working Group

Note: License Working Group minutes are first published here in draft form. They are then formally accepted at the next meeting and may be subject to change for fact and clarity until then.

The LWG meets once a month, conducting some of its business via email resolutions that are then reported at the next meeting. If a meeting hasn't happened yet, the document will be an edit copy for agenda.

As we are currently using a voice conferencing system for the meetings, please send us a mail before the meeting if you want to join/listen in. Please be aware that we now and then discuss confidential matters that may require signing a non-disclosure agreement with the OSMF.
