Contribution Agreements

(guests Porter Merriman from Autodesk and Heather Meeker http://www.gtlaw.com/people/biography.aspx?id=5523&detail=1#overview) Secretary missed some of the details.

Update from Tyler

Tyler could not attend.

Discuss board-priv use and membership

Short discussion. It was pointed out that it must be possible to discuss issues regarding the ED position without Tyler. It was assumed that all in the board are capable of typing in eight email adresses by hand if need be. Tyler thus is on the board priv list. This list is only to be used in cases that need discretion. Did secretary miss anything about membership?

Discuss relationship with OGC

It was discussed that OSGeo might create a standards committee as of point of contact with the OGC.
