Paul Albertella and I attended the first ELISA workshop in Munich, along 
with approx 30 people from a range of organisations interested in safety 
standards, automotive, robotics, medical systems, academic research etc. 
It was clear that the participants included a broad spectrum of 
experience - including folks with experience of interacting with the 
safety standards communities, Linux systems specialists, and people 
clearly facing challenging projects involving autonomous systems (for 
example vehicles and robots).

The discussion was constructive and we all contributed to a draft plan 
[1] for advancing the ELISA agenda.

The group identified the need for practical use case examples, and we 
suggested the possibility of taking the Trustable av-stpa [2] as an 
input for a potential 'autonomous systems safety' use case. Paul 
Albertella shared some information about the ontology work that he and 
others have been involved in here, and there was some interest in that 
also.

My understanding is that the aim is to arrange a follow-on workshop 
after the summer, possibly in UK or again in Germany. There will also be 
a meetup at one of the LF events in Japan in the meantime.

 From my PoV there is some overlap of interest between ELISA and 
Trustable, and no conflict of aims, so it might make sense to raise the 
possibility of Trustable involvement in the next workshop?
