Notes from September 17, 2019 Meeting
Attending: Tim R, Lisa L, David Thelander, Pete Palmer, Ruth P (Kantara)
The group discussed whether and how UMA currently treats first order legal relationships (i.e. the creation of the initial legal relationship between the consumer/data subject/legal representative and the service provider and/resource server operator. For purposes of this first order legal relationship, the group further discussed the possibility of deploying a 'reverse EULA' as discussed in the recent paper published by Lisa and Eve. Lisa reported that the Me2B organization has a legal subcommittee that is now actively developing model 'reverse EULA' language. It was suggested that UMA might collaborate with Me2B on this effort. [Editor's note: The Proposed UMA Business Licensing Model contemplates that the ASO, using an Access Contract vehicle that authorizes licensing, is the entity that creates the first order legal relationship with the Service Providers and Resource Service Operators.]
Follow-up actions: Lisa has offered to share information on the Me2B efforts to create model 'reverse EULA' terms. In particular, Scott David has prepared excellent initial legal materials. David T has legal expertise with software licensing and also offered to assist with developing standard licensing terms.
