Minutes
- Cory: Note about meeting recordings. Group is happy with current approach: meetings are recorded for reference but recordings not published or broadcast.
- Action item follow-up [0:00-0:10]
- Contribution guidelines for knowledge base
- CoryO: current github repo requires DCO signoff for commits. Is this too restrictive?
- JohnM: Best practice in other groups is to treat documentation as software via markdown etc. with contribution licences etc. This is particularly important for materials that may need to be shared.
- MichaelK: This will create friction for small and frequent contributions. Has USD team given a position on whether it would be acceptable to have a more broadly edited (and possibly occasionally inaccurate) wiki?
- CoryO: USD team intends to expand documentation with versioning against USD releases, including FAQ. They are happy to have a companion, public FAQ / knowledge base.
- CoryO: Is Creative Commons a suitable licence?
- JohnM: Have to ensure the IP model is compatible with ASWF.
- Platform for contribution (github wiki, something else?)
- JohnM: Has now switched github wiki permissions to allow public edits
- Knowledge Base Category Brainstorming (Alan) [0:10-0:40]
- Closing/Action Items [0:40-0:50]
