- License for Testing Management Platform will be open source, freely distributed
- License will not be "viral" open source in the sense of requiring all distributions and derivative works to be free and open source
- License will include notice that credits all contributors to development; users of the code will be required to reproduce this credit statement
- Licensing rights for Testing Modules will be retained by their developers
- IHE will publish guidelines for the licensing terms to be used by contributors of Testing Modules to ensure that they are compatible with use in Connectathons and other applications and for free, open source distribution along with Testing Management Platform
Action: David Monteau will develop draft licensing language and guidelines for review by Committee
