Kaz: My impression and understanding from the call with Jeff is a bit different
… should not start with MoU
… first start with clarifying expectations
… suggest some more detailed discussions
… expectations should not be informative .. rather a formative specification

… needs to go into new charter

Kaz: let's start with further discussions

McCool: let's start with discussion in editors call

Kaz: in that case, we should call the meeting "the OPC-UA liaison call", and ask all the necessary people to join it

… will create the OPC-UA liaison call -> same WebEx

Lagally: May I suggest .... start drafting a plan
