PWG
Minor updates to the PWG process were reviewed. PDF is the only mandatory
format for PWG documents. Issues were raised regarding the Intellectual
Property section. Several people objected to the default actions outlined in
the first paragraph of that section. We do not want to say that you give up
rights to IP based on discussions in the PWG. We do want to encourage revealing
your intent regarding IP, whether it be patented, copyright, pending or
otherwise in process. Don Wright has volunteered to rewrite the section on
Confidentiality which may become an addendum. The process document may need to
be revised to indicate how the PWG will deal with "dormant" projects
including possible reactivating and archival, using SENSE as an example
