2002-02-05-02 Corporate Status |
Jon Backus reported on the current status of the corporation. The Charter and Bylaws has not yet been reset in legal language, but that work is expected to be done within the day and the applications for non-profit status and a federal tax number filed soon thereafter. VOTED to allow ratification of the Charter and Bylaws by email vote if they are satisfactorily completed prior to the next meeting. |
2002-02-05-03 Names |
Jeff Vance's research indicates no trademarking of "MPE" by Hewlett-Packard and that HP would likely not object to the use of the OpenMPE name. VOTED to leave the company name as "OpenMPE, Inc." and to refer to the operating system (even in planning documents) as MPE/iX. It is understood that the O/S name would change when it came under OpenMPE control and expected that future names would follow the "MPE/something" pattern. |
2002-02-05-04 Committee Creation |
After some discussion of creating working committees responsible for researching certain topics in more depth, the topic was postponed until the next meeting. |
2002-02-05-05 Business Plan |
Discussion and refining of the Business Plan will continue via email in the interim between this meeting and the next. |
