Agenda

  • Review Trademark and Account Assignment.

  • Review Technical Charter

  • Discuss license type

Notes

Project Contribution Agreement

  • Clarity needed on what Assignor means.

Technical Charter

  • Beyond sensitivities, spectral data should probably also comprise lens and illuminant datasets.

Licence

  • TODO: Thomas to bump Kimball for the license, which one is preferred Apache or BSD-3.

Questions

  • Mark: Interested in a library along with the command line tool. What about new cameras support as Libraw is not planned to be used?

  • Thomas: Libraw license does not bode well with Weta.

  • Mark: What is the Libraw replacement?

  • Alex: Should ask Kimball about the plan as the codebase will be bootstrapped using Weta's code.
