<p class="MsoNormal">Mainly discussed on stable tags.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Extend stable tags to edk2 platform repo. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Look for the stewards to put a proposal and reach out to the community sometime during December so that we can plan for the Q1 stable tag.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Opens</u></b>: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Open from Dick Wilkins on TCG specs: Analyze event logs to verify the status of a platform
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">General observation – implementation is all over the place and found bugs, entering those in Bugzilla.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Code needs to be reviewed end to end, event logs should be easily parsed.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Mike Kinney recommends - Someone needs to write down edk2 implementation or interpretation of the TCG specs. A design doc needs to be written.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We need to make sure a we write an implementation design for a few platforms under edk2 (such as OVMF fw stack) and provide some examples to show the parsing.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dick Wilkins can help facilitate/review and engage<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Action:</u></b> Ken goldman (IBM) saw implementation related bugs and entered those in Bugzilla, Dick to start an RFC to elevate the issue. Once RFC is entered, Mike Kinney and Stewards will look into this issue.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Mike K suggests unit tests that can help verify the implementation and won’t break in the future.
