10 min	Review action items from previous meetings (see above)
10 mins	How to leverage GitHub membership	Maurizio Pillitu Jamie Jones	Discussion. We are in the process of downgrading github.com/finos to "Team for Open Source" tier, as we managed to move all our private repos elsewhere. How do we want to manage GitHub Org Membership? Shall membership to github.com/finos be public? Who is (and who is not) a member of the org? Who manages membership and when? Proposal. Any FINOS active participant SHOULD be part of a GitHub Team, and therefore should be a FINOS (GitHub org) member; membership should be public; FINOS Staff will take care of membership, anytime a new project or contributor is onboarded; an internal sync tool will periodically check if GitHub Teams and members list are in sync (as project leads are also maintainers of GitHub Teams. Given the mentioned permission strategy, at repository level, there should be need to define user-specific permissions, all individuals should be mapped to at least 1 GitHub Team (making permission management much simpler, especially for multi-repo projects, who share the same team definitions).
5 min	Update on FINOS org transitions	Maurizio Pillitu	Discussion. Update on moving organizations for separate foundation programs into the finos organization on GitHub
10 mins	Moving OSR into FDX - update	Group	Update on OSR to FDX merging OSR WG merging with ODP WG call (or vice versa) Aaron W: OSR has scheduled calls with compliance-related talks (for next couple of weeks at least); ODP is welcome to join. Merging is welcome Discuss again for next FDX PMC meeting
5 min	AOB & adjourn

Decisions Made

Action Items

Maurizio Pillitu and Jamie Jones - follow up on documentation re. FINOS governance on GitHub => lead to Handbook documentation
Maurizio Pillitu and Rob - follow up with teams (ie Perspective) to use GitHub Team (ie dav-perspective)
Interest to use FINOS GitHub org members as list of "active participants", but too difficult to manage; let's keep it simple, membership will be affected by Team configurations
Cleanup Outside Collaborators: adding them as members (or remove from repos, sometimes it applies for archived repos)
Maurizio Pillitu and Tosha Ellison - marketing updates re. github org consolidation (ie link changes)
Discuss again "OSR WG merging with ODP WG call (or vice versa)" for next FDX PMC meeting
