@ibrahimhaddad @lucyhyde: @redenmartinez and I had a call with Masahiro and Fukuyori this evening in regard to SapientML and ISF - and they agreed to forward the Trademark/contribution agreements for ECN to us.

We expect this content from them shortly.

[NSouthernLF]

12/1/23 - emailed the Fujitsu team again and rerequested a copy of their trademark/contribution/ECN agreement for ISF. Once this is obtained, all PM tasks will be completed.

[NSouthernLF]

This sandbox project has no website at present, so I Xd out items 2 and 3 under 'Project Assets' above. These items are irrelevant.

[NSouthernLF]

Emailed these gentlemen again and rerequested their social media info.

[NSouthernLF]

Contribution/trademark agreement submitted and ticket filed for ECN filing.
