Rule 2 states that:

The accuracy dataset must be the same as used in an existing Closed benchmark, or must be pre-approved and added to the following list: ImageNet 2012 validation dataset for Image Classification; COCO 2017 validation dataset for Object Detection. From v3.0, if a submitter provides any results with any models trained on a pre-approved dataset, the submitter must also provide at least one result with the corresponding Closed model trained (or finetuned) on the same pre-approved dataset, and instructions to reproduce the training (or finetuning) process.

There are some problems with this rule:

I am requesting @psyhtest and @rnaidu02 to help in formulating a simpler rule 2 for Open.

Based on the WGM discussion, @psyhtest will look at removing/simplifying the "v3.0" sentence. I will try to add a new rule to cover the training dataset. Discussion on these changes can be done in next week's WGM.
