1.      Self-Certification & Registration Workflow
Don reviewed a new workflow document.  Adam asked about how we describe 
services versus software products.  He was thinking of the list maybe being a 
whitelist.  John said that it's not a whitelist.  Mike clarified that our 
certification work applies to both software and services.  People should review 
the parts of the legal docs used to describe the deployment being certified and 
see if there's additional information we'd like to enable those seeking 
certification to provide.  We may want to give implementers optional space to 
write down anything about their deployments that they believe would be useful 
to others.


2.      Certification Legal Documents
Tom Smedinghoff reviewed the certification legal documents.  Tom asked us to 
consider whether three years is the right lifetime for a certification.  George 
asked what the process would be if the OIDF terminates a certification and the 
implementer considers the removal to have been in error.  Tom replied that 
there isn't currently a defined process.  Mike stated that the documents 
already define a lightweight process - communication via the 
certificat...@oidf.net<mailto:certificat...@oidf.net> mailing list.  Tom also 
pointed out that there's an overall legal assumption that contracts are 
administered in an even-handed manner.

Don and Tom plan to review the current legal docs with Microsoft standards 
lawyers, Mike Jones, and Tony Nadalin on Monday, with all but Tom being there 
in person.

A hosting agreement with Symantec is being worked on.  We may also enter into 
an agreement with Global Inventures for administering the certification program.


3.      Other Certification Work
Roland Hedberg continues working on the testing software and deployment.  
Several parties are actively testing their OPs and providing feedback on the 
tests.  The marketing committee is working on a launch plan.  Symantec is 
helping lead the launch PR effort.
