OFAC Sanctions and Project Updates:
61+
===================================
62+
63+
The meeting began with Megan introducing herself and the agenda, which included a focus on OFAC sanctions and updates
64+
from open source projects. Rod confirmed that the recordings from the Mini summit were published and agreed to send them
65+
out. The group discussed the OFAC sanctions issue raised by Michael Voss, with Michael providing an overview of the
66+
topic and emphasizing that he is not a lawyer. The conversation ended with a reminder for participants to add any
67+
additional agenda items to the chat or to Megan and John.
68+
69+
Sanctions Compliance and Legal Implications:
70+
============================================
71+
72+
Mike explained the legal implications of sanctions against specially designated nationals, noting that US citizens and
73+
organizations must comply with these rules worldwide, even if unaware of violations. He highlighted that the rules
74+
impose strict liability, meaning any infractions can result in fines or criminal penalties, and emphasized that
75+
ownership of 50% or more by sanctioned individuals or organizations can also trigger sanctions.
76+
77+
Open Source Contribution Policy Challenges:
78+
===========================================
79+
80+
Mike raised concerns about the challenges of enforcing contribution policies for open source projects, particularly
81+
regarding unsolicited patches and two-way engagement with individuals or organizations on restricted lists. Megan
82+
acknowledged these issues and suggested exploring guidance from the Linux Foundation and OpenSSF, noting the need for
83+
unified policies across projects. She proposed taking the lead on this matter, including consulting with OpenSSF's
84+
security experts and discussing it with the operations team, to find practical solutions for identity management and
85+
contribution verification.
86+
87+
oneDNN Updates:
88+
===============
89+
90+
Mourad reported on oneDNN, mentioning a release candidate for 3.9 expected at the end of the week, with potential delays
91+
due to new features and PyTorch's schedule. They also noted interest from the Barcelona supercomputing group in adding
92+
RISC-V capabilities.
93+
94+
oneMath Updates:
95+
================
96+
97+
Andrey said oneMath did not have much of a update. The are focused on maintenance releases at the moment.
98+
99+
oneDAL Updates:
100+
===============
101+
102+
Ian and Aleksandr ("Sasha") provided updates on oneDAL, mentioning bug fixes and preparation for the 2025.3 release in
103+
November.
104+
105+
oneTBB Updates:
106+
===============
107+
108+
Mike shared that oneTBB's next release in 2022.3 would focus on improvements to the tasking API, requested by the visual
109+
effects community. The team agreed that monthly releases generally work well for them, allowing for better feedback on
110+
dependencies.
111+
112+
oneDPL Updates:
113+
===============
114+
115+
The team discussed the status and development of oneDPL, a portable library for CPUs, which currently sees primarily
116+
Intel-related usage. Timmie reported ongoing work on range-based APIs for parallel algorithms and GPU performance
117+
improvements, particularly for set operation algorithms. Alexey explained that oneDPL's CPU support serves as an
118+
upstream source for the C++ standard library's parallel algorithms, though this relationship has recently become less
119+
active.
120+
121+
oneCCL Updates:
122+
===============
123+
124+
Maria provided updates on CCL, noting their work on supporting Battle Match ARB-PE and PyTorch upstream, with plans for
125+
a patch release in mid-August and a major release in October that will include a new C API design as a non-default
126+
option.
127+
128+
Dev Summit Presentation Submissions Discussion:
129+
===============================================
130+
131+
The meeting was shorter than usual due to the summer season, with Aaron absent from the office. Rod requested that John
132+
share videos from the Open Source Summit and a link to the Call for Presentations for the upcoming Dev summit. John
133+
encouraged all projects to submit presentations, emphasizing the importance of sharing their work within the
134+
foundation. The conversation ended with thanks from Megan and the participants.
