After reviewing the draft minutes, I started a summary [1] (providing at
least the goals/history/question) and was going to try to take a tenative
stab at framing a tenative position on the issues to elicit agreement or
disagreement but got caught on the liability/warranty issue. Since the
interesting questions, scope of use (at least in part) and redistubution
(in whole), hang off Kirill's concern there, perhaps he could say more on
that note?
1. Warranty and Liabiltiy: While not particularly verbose the
disclaimers found in the W3C Software and Document Licenses do
have the approriate/relevant disclaimers.
Caveat: Kirill Gavrylyuk (Microsoft) stated that he has a concern
that since these licenses do not provide indemnities, and it's not
reasonable to expect W3C to do so, he is concerned about possible
misuse by or threat to customers. Joseph Reagle (W3C) responded
that the disclaimers are present and it's an organization's choice
whether they want to distribute the tests (under the W3C license).
