DRM Working Group (now DRM Project)

  • This working group is dormant pending internal JPMC discussions.

@Former user (Deleted)

  • Rob recommended that the PMC give the DRM project (i.e., @Former user (Deleted)) until the next PMC meeting and if the working group (project) still can't move forward that the project be archived and additionally hidden on the FINOS website and DT wiki; the PMC agreed to move forward on that recommendation.

  • @Rob Underwood (Deactivated) to follow up with @Former user (Deleted) 

5 min

KDB Working Group (now "Project") update 

@Alvin Shih

  • Kx not interested in being involved for now.

  • JPMC hoping to have someone new join the call who might have more cycles to look at code.

  • Planning to merge incubator projects to master that have had no input for 2 months.

5 min

Security Reference Working Group update

@Sailesh Pandey

  • Sailesh unable to join today.

  • The Bloomberg presentation at the last SRD meeting indicated that Legal Entity Identifier is becoming required by European regulators.  However, won't be widespread in the near future and therefore won't be a drop-in solution.

Data Helix update

@Andrew Carr (He/Him)

  • Andrew unable to join.

  • New time for meeting that would work better for @Andrew Carr (He/Him) and other people from UK/Europe?

Marketing tactics for kdb 

All

  • Target: get more developers engaged in the projects

  • Meetups: 50-60% of registered people don't attend free meetups; raises to 70% if you charge. In the past we've had 150-200 people register, 60-70 people attend 

  • Prepare some FINOS and/ or Data Technologies merchandising (stickers, business cards, with URLs or QR codes to the website, wiki,...) Baseball card size. Replicate with other programs, set up some kind of reward system (collect 7 cards and get a FINOS sweater, ...)

5 min
