	* Adrian Custer pointed out that before groups such as the GeoTools PMC assign copyright to OSGeo they would like an assurance of some form from the board indicating that OSGeo will keep code under an OSI approved license, and that as much as possible will honour the wishes of the project PSC in how this is handled. ACTION: Frank to get a clear statement of intent from the Board of Directors.

 * Discussed the need for "independent" PSC members.  It was agreed that this is desirable to demonstrate that a PSC is not closed to membership from outside a primary organization.  Also it is desirable to demonstrate there is interest in a project to sustain it even if the primary organization loses interest.  Requirements for independent and diverse PSC members should be seen in this light.

+* Discussed user and developer documentation requirements.  A clear consensus that they are required, but no clear plan on whether documents need to be updated.  ACTION: Steve Lime will consider proposing specific improvements to docs in this regard.
