m16455, m16457: Interesting contribution as they reflect what WG11 is already undertaking as part of the MXM project. We encourage to bring details on:

• 
  Identification of multimedia application;
  
• 
  Classification of multimedia application;
  
• 
  Multimedia application discovery;
  
• 
  Multimedia application instantiation;
  
• 
  Multimedia application access;
  
• 
  Multimedia application execution environment;
  
• 
  Multimedia application composition.
  

License:

• 
  Presented in Busan and became an output document + resolution asking NBs to respond
  
• 
  No input in Lausanne
  
• 
  License was submitted to Open Source Initiative (OSI).
  
• 
  Some open source extremists raised concerns.
  
• 
  We are unable to handle the concerns because MPEG experts have no time to dedicate to the matter.
  
• 
  The following two possibilities have been identified:
  
  • 
    Adopt the Mozilla license (which is open source, and the starting point of the MXM license) for the MXM layer and reference external code.
    
  • 
    Continue adopting the MPEG copyright disclaimer
    
• 
  In both cases, if the external code is from MPEG, the existing reference software maybe modified retaining the original MPEG copyright disclaimer.
  
• 
  In order to keep it simple, we propose to adopt the MPEG copyright disclaimer.
  

SVN account:

• 
  The MXM repository is now available. I have updated the Guide to the MPEG Subversion Repository to include the new repository and submitted it as input document m16483 for Maui. The most important part of the update is in Section 4.1. If you want to see all the differences, use svn. You can find the document here in the repository. I have also updated the Administrators Resources at http://wg11.sc29.org/svnadmin/index.xalter.
  
• 
  The URL of the repository is http://wg11.sc29.org/mxmsvn/repos. It can be browsed with a web-browser or checked-out to an SVN client. Users 'sc29wg11' and 'mxmpubro' have read-only access. MPEG-member accounts have read-write access to the main svn repository and read-only access to mxmsvn by default. Upon request member accounts can be upgraded to read-write access of mxmsvn. Non-MPEG-members have read-write access to mxmsvn and no access to svn or the MPEG committee web site.
  
• 
  The public read-only account is the aforementioned 'mxmpubro' whose password is 'mpegmxmro'.
  
• 
  Filippo's and Emiliano's acounts have been upgraded to have mxmsvn read-write access.
