Minutes

1. Roll

Summary: Quorum was not reached, but attendance was recorded, as reflected above.

2. Update on votes

Summary: The votes that were pending electronically, the Overview, Glossary, and Levels of Assurance, passed with 11 votes--10 in favor, one against. The group discussed the no vote, which was based entirely on the abstracts and the desire for each of the abstracts to fully reference all of the key documents in the IAF. The group agreed this was agreeable and, further, that such a change was editorial in nature and would not require a new vote. Britta was requested to make the minor abstract updates requested.

3. ICAM Submission Update

Summary: Our final ICAM application was submitted on Nov. 30. The ICAM team met on Dec. 2. At this meeting, the discussion was focused on the ICAM review process vs. our application and we have been told to expect advisement on our status in January. No further action is required of us at this time.

4. FORG

Summary: Rich has received substative feedback to the FORG draft from two members. One of these sets of feedback will require another round of updates to the document. Rich will be working on this the last two weeks in Dec, so requests input (send it to the full list, please) by Dec. 18.

5. AAS and AQR documents

Summary: The group discussed the status of the AAS and AQR, and their role in the overall IAF. Both documents will be very key to the certification program, and will be accessed, and potentially updated, during our pilot stage. While there would be advantages to having them in released draft form for the pilot immediately, the group discussed and decided they would rather release them as fully vetted documents vs. earlier drafts, recognizing that much conversation on these documents has taken place already. As such, the group decided that a pre-ballot call for comments on these documents should be issued to the full list serve, with a request for a thorough review of the AAS and AQR before the next meeting, asking for comments to be made to the full list serve, with the Jan. 6 meeting fully focused on these documents, with a vote on the call if quorum is met and the group feels ready, or an electronic ballot shortly thereafter.

Next Meeting

The group agreed to cancel the Dec. 23 meeting, and meet again on Jan. 6.
