Legal Team Report - Jilayne

.         Action items for closing on the XML conversion is published

.         Decided to do the next license list update around the end of Oct.
which will use the new XML file format


Cross Functional Topics - Gary


.         Discussion on whether the new XML license master list format is
intended for external tools or to be used internal only to the Legal Team in
producing the license list

.         Gary recalled a discussion where we decided the first release of
the XML format would be internal only

.         Consensus that one of the overall goal of the XML format is to
enable better tooling - the issue is only related to the phasing of the XML
format implementation

.         Some of the issues to external tool use would be the inconsistency
in the element and property names with the SPDX specification

.         Request that the technical team be involved if the XML format is
to be used externally

.         Will be discussed on the legal call
