- Went through notices
- Focusing today on License generator
BI: We should publish our talks in the FINOS blog.
RM: happy to write this up and publish today.
License Generator
CdS: Lots of refactoring on the license generator recently. Territory clause still to do. Functionally, you can take the code as-is and modify internally the license clauses.
At the moment, the clauses (e.g. https://github.com/finos-labs/innersource-license-generator/blob/main/src/license-clauses/attribution-org-project.txt) are not written by a legal team and would need legal review.
RM: Anyone in mind for this?
KN: Yes, we have someone in mind, they should be able to review soon.
CdS: Does this need a further review by IS Commons?
BI: They will need a deeper understanding of the tool for that. We’ll need to give them a clear call-to-action for the tool (especially from a legal perspective).
CdS: We have a backlog. Eventually, we need to consider deploying this. Backstage might be an option.
RM: Raised https://github.com/finos-labs/innersource-license-generator/issues/19 to cover this.
MC: Backstage instance of innersource commons needs funding.
BI: can you talk about the issues on the license generator in the weekly blog,, RM?
RM: yep, will do.
Migrating to OSR
BI: Maturity matrix needs an update - we need to look through and decide about this. Just migrate over as-is.
CdS: We need get-involved, intro etc migrated over. Added content to how to contribute to the license generator on the get-involved page.
RM: Do we need open roles?
BI: I don’t think we need to nominate for 2024.
RM: I could put this in the blog article too.
Theming
RM: showed some theme mock-ups.
MF: added a comment about information architecture. Suggested changing from “Body of Knowledge” to “Handbook@”
