DESCRIPTION:The IEEE Computer Society Standards Activity Board Standards Co
 mmittee (C/SAB SC) has approved a Project Authorization Request (PAR) Stud
 y Group to determine if there’s enough interest to develop a recommended
  practice for open source software project governance.\n\nIn the IEEE Stan
 dards Association (SA)\, a PAR Study Group is the predecessor to a standar
 ds development working group. The PAR Study Group will meet over the next 
 few months to gauge interest\, discuss and develop a scope\, and prepare a
  PAR form.\n\nStephen Walli is the PAR Study Group Chair. To set expectati
 ons\, recommended practices describe a preferred method\, predominantly us
 ing “shoulds” rather than mandatory requirements that use “shalls”
 . This is an attempt to collect together the common terminology and recogn
 ized practices from the past quarter century into a document that will pro
 vide a basic framework to help people interested in developing open source
  projects.\n\nThe intention of this recommended practice and working group
  will not be debating the Open Source Definition\, or recommending specifi
 c licenses\, or debating business practices and business models or intelle
 ctual property (IP) policies.\n\nThe first meeting of the Open Source Soft
 ware Project Governance PAR Study Group (OSSPG SG) will be Wednesday\, 9 F
 ebruary at 11:00 ET (17:00 CET\, 08:00 PT) for 2 hours. The initial meetin
 g will provide an overview of the IEEE SA standards development process\, 
 ensure people understand the IEEE SA intellectual property policies\, and 
 begin to lay out the plan for the next meetings.\n\nEveryone is welcome to
  participate.\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/301348
