<br>
At the time of the July OpenStack Foundation board meeting I was a<br>
lawyer for Red Hat and as part of my work for my then-client I<br>
substantially prepared a paper on the CLA/DCO issue. That paper was<br>
provided to the Board, and some slides summarizing some points in the<br>
paper were presented at the Board meeting.<br>
<br>
As some of you may know I left Red Hat in August and recently started<br>
a job as a lawyer at HP.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Congrats!</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
It was my expectation in July that the paper and/or the slides would<br>
be published more widely (cf.:<br>
<a href="http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/foundation/2014-July/001718.html" target="_blank">http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/foundation/2014-July/001718.html</a>). This<br>
apparently was not done.<br>
<br>
A senior employee of my former client has asked that I post the paper<br>
to this list. The paper (as a form of property) properly belongs to<br>
Red Hat but was stored in a personal Google Drive account. It's<br>
here:<br>

Anyone else have this problem?</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>When my phone wrapped the link, it stripped some of the trailing bits. This link works:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/17aY-R4I_-JE7Lg5Z3VCjdAxIjNRiXZKUaDGBwFq266U/edit">https://docs.google.com/document/d/17aY-R4I_-JE7Lg5Z3VCjdAxIjNRiXZKUaDGBwFq266U/edit</a></div><div><br></div><div>Doug</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br></div><div>Thanks Richard for the post,</div><div>Anne</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">
I wish to make absolutely clear I am not posting this for my current<br>
client, but at the request of my former client, and I emphasize again<br>
that posting it now merely belatedly satisfies an expectation of<br>
publication that existed in July. Absence of publication would seem to<br>
be in conflict with at least the spirit of the Foundation's<br>
Transparency Policy<br>
(<a href="http://www.openstack.org/legal/transparency-policy/" target="_blank">http://www.openstack.org/legal/transparency-policy/</a>).<br>
<br>
The paper makes some references to a draft memo prepared by the<br>
Foundation's counsel which itself was not published (so far as I know)<br>
beyond the OpenStack Foundation Legal Affairs Committee, though it may<br>
be fair to regard it as a partial basis for the PowerPoint slides that<br>
were posted on this list recently. It should be borne in mind that<br>
some of the points referenced in that memo may not reflect the current<br>
views of the Foundation's counsel.<br>
