## Meeting Minutes

**FMUv6 Update from Gumstix**

New doc for FMUv6 (not v6x) with updated pinout and diagrams for the v6 reference design

**Open Question to the group** : What is missing from the FMUv5X that we can’t get this done properly? (The schematics are just an example of the standard)

**TODO** : Host a working-level meeting to go through FMUv6 & FMUv5 in parallel for all the implicit assumptions. **Who wants to participate?**

**96Boards / PX4 Mezzanine implementation**

Their goal is to make a bridge between FMU SOM and 96Boards specification boards, the goal is to have a plug and play compatibility with more powerful companion computers for auxiliary tasks. “Bridging both worlds!”.

**TODO** : Workgroup meeting with 96boards to define a breakout connector to the FMUv6/FMUv5 and PAB specs

Discussed how we are planning to make the Pixhawk standard open and transparent to the community including:

- Product launch process (how to launch a Pixhawk based product)
- Testing and Verification
- Trademark usage
- Brand enforcement
- Qualification process
