2. Welcome & Opening Business Roll Call –Participants in room –Participants on Ready Talk, enter name & affiliation in chat box –Participants joining by phone only stated name & affiliation –Establish quorum NSF Anti-Trust Statement http://standards.nsf.org/apps/org/workgroup/jtg- ess/download.php/30669 IEEE Call for Patents https://development.standards.ieee.org/myproject/Public/mytools/mob /slideset.pdf Meeting folder with all documents: http://standards.nsf.org/apps/org/workgroup/jtg- ess/documents.php?folder_id=9532

3. Overview of Agenda Governance/process check in Reconciliation of overlapping/conflicting criteria & other content –Up front sections –Continue reconciliation of overlapping criteria & related definitions Discussion of 9 NSF criteria of “priority concern” selected by IEEE 1680.4 WG & possible comment resolution –Joint agreement requires overlapping criteria be reconciled first; agenda items may be pushed back pending progress –Any unresolved criteria of “priority concern” at the end of the 6 month timeframe go directly to ballot, as written by NSF

4. Rules of Engagement Be concise and focus on high priority areas Comments will be taken in a queue: –If in the room, turn your name cards on end –Raise your hands if you are on ReadyTalk –If you are on the phone only, ask to be added to the queue Comments will be taken from folks that have not yet spoken before taking a second comment Please say your name when speaking so those on the phone know who is speaking We will be adhering to the agenda timing as much as possible –If discussions are still underway, we will wrap up or identify next steps Motions will be made during the meeting to gauge support, still need to go to electronic voting to apply weighted voting We will be seeking approval for some items and directional guidance for other items

5. Governance and Other Business Approval of March 31 st Meeting Summary Governance Updates from Chair –Holding electronic voted for 3/31 motions & bundling with motions for this meeting –Liaisons with 1680.1 Check in on Process –Review milestones & progress –Goals of process –Solicit participant feedback
