We are doing a lot of editing. Here is what we are working on:
We want to close the comments on this Word document to create our new free online training course on edX. We currently have a lot of suggestions around parts 1~4 and need suggestions around parts 5~8. Please review and add notes to help us make this happen for late March delivery! https://1drv.ms/w/s!AsXJVqby5kpnkRE0rsGzo5lduvaq?e=t0aEs5
We want to review the supplier “Introduction to OpenChain” slide deck to consider refinements to language to make it super clear and simple for organizations completely new to OpenChain: https://1drv.ms/p/s!AsXJVqby5kpnkRUxneDgBQMWIUmx
Finally, we want to update two specific areas of our general project overview slides. The first, slide 22, is about explaining the place of OpenChain in the eco-system. What is the best way to visualize this? The second is to review the project summary language on slide 26 to consider if it fits your mental model of how we should be summarized: https://1drv.ms/p/s!AsXJVqby5kpnkRbTu0pv0Jgb0aAQ
If we get all this together we will have the perfect package to hand to suppliers and other interested parties to onboard them into our ecosystem.

Today the OpenChain Project announced LG Electronic’s conformance to OpenChain 2.1 (ISO/IEC 5230), the International Standard for open source license compliance. This standard defines the key requirements of a quality open source compliance program, and helps to both reduce errors and increase efficiency across the global supply chain.
“LG Electronics has been part of the OpenChain community since early in our deployment as an industry standard,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain General Manager. “Their formal adoption of ISO 5230 continues their long-term investment in great governance in this field, and continues their leadership role both in the Korean market and beyond. I am looking forward to continuing our collaboration and benefiting from the significant contributions of the LG Electronics team to knowledge, understanding and efficiency in this space.”
“LG Electronics has long been a leader in open source process management as well as an early adopter of the OpenChain specification,” said I.P. Park, CTO of LG Electronics. “Our alignment with ISO 5230 underlines and reinforces this important commitment and serves to illustrate how this international standard supports organizations across the consumer electronics industry.”
About the OpenChain Project
OpenChain began when a group of open source compliance professionals met in a conference lounge and chatted about how so much duplicative, redundant open source license compliance work was being done inefficiently in the software supply chain simply. They realized that while each company did the same work behind the scenes in a different manner the output for downstream recipients could not realistically be relied on because there was no visibility into the process that generated the output. The answer the early principles of this discussion arrived at was to standardize open source compliance, make it transparent and build trust across the ecosystem. The project began as outreach to the community with the idea of a new standard for open source license compliance with slides titled, “When Conformity is Innovative.” A growing community quickly recognized the value of this approach and contributed to the nascent collaboration soon named The OpenChain Project.
