Tech Team Report - 
Kate/Gary[edit<https://wiki.spdx.org/index.php?title=General_Meeting/Minutes/2017-06-01&action=edit&section=1>]

  *   Good progress on getting spec to GitHub
     *   Should have a new version within the next month
     *   Will be adapting processes to new source
  *   Substantively working though list of items for next release
     *   Still up in the air whether we will go to a 2.2 or directly to 3.0
        *   Need to resolve by Aug
        *   2.2 candidates- clean up appendices for license list work, a few 
additional fields
     *   3.0 will imply compatibility issues
     *   Timeframe depends on above, but likely 2018 in any case
  *   Summer of Code
     *   A number of students have started
     *   Participation in Tech Calls
     *   One just starting to commit to GitHub
  *   Tooling
     *   Moving apace
  *   News- Someone from IBM reported at OSCON that they are using SPDX short 
identifiers internally
Legal Team Report - 
Jilayne/Paul[edit<https://wiki.spdx.org/index.php?title=General_Meeting/Minutes/2017-06-01&action=edit&section=2>]

  *   Lots of activity
  *   XML work still underway; Gary supporting with tooling
  *   Other large threads
     *   Discussion about how to deal with licenses that have been translated
        *   There is a default policy with which we’ve been consistent
        *   Re-looking into this in light of new XML stuff and need for 
automated matching
        *   JL started a Wiki page to pull together all the proposals
     *   Kate/JL reached out to FSF
        *   For rallying support
        *   Issue: how we represent license and “or later” with the syntax 
sometimes goes unnoticed
           *   Perhaps recasting as a separate v2 only license is a better way 
to handle
           *   But there are implications we need to think through

Outreach Team 
Report[edit<https://wiki.spdx.org/index.php?title=General_Meeting/Minutes/2017-06-01&action=edit&section=3>]

  *   Basically we are still working on a proposal for how to allow tools to 
get a badge or certification for working with SPDX documents
  *   and an umbrella project  for Github for all of our projects out there.
  *   Kate- also looking to create an archive of past projects which are no 
longer active
  *   Backoff at LinuxCon Europe (October in Prague) is likely.
     *   Working on test suite to be available for this.
