Questions and answers on this are best looked at in the meeting logs but generally covered who would look at things, why they would be looked and who to go to if there were problems (the Board). At 45 minutes the question is worded as follows for input from groups and approval/rejection next Board meeting. 0) The Board will appoint SIG's that they think are appropriate for various trademark approvals. 1) Each appointed SIG should create a checklist or SOP for Item approval. 2) When an appointed SIG gives its approval for a Item, it should do so in a public and transparent manner. The SIG can decide the exact manner of approval but who and where the approval is granted should be specified in the SOP. 3) Once approvals from appointed SIGS are done, the Item will be submitted to the Board (via a ticket) for trademark approval. 4) The Board can appoint a specific SIG to keep track of "trademarked" Items and that SIG will set schedules and/or reasons for re-approval 5) The Board will be the final arbitrator in disputes between various SIGs or perceived problems of process.
