what is already implemented in open source; a roadmap for *potential* covergence with MANO APIs to the extent they ever get stage 3 defined. 06:24:16 #agree the TSC agrees that the establishment of a MANO working group is a good idea and supports it. 06:24:39 IMO also the key part of the existing open source focus should be content (NSD/VNFD) portability 06:25:48 I also don't think we should limit the focus to any specific set of open source projects in the conceptual MANO stack space 06:26:39 #info disccussion that existing working groups (e.g. security, infra, testing) in OPNFV do not have formal charters 06:26:42 I agree we need to keep any such WG very light in organization and procedures; no formal charter etc. 06:27:15 this is mostly a discussion forum to facilitate cross-project collaboration 06:27:45 Joining IRC late... 06:27:49 #info dneary 06:28:43 bryan_att, I tend to think that common infrastructure and information model are the most important things to agree on across MANO projects 06:29:02 #action prakash to raise the working group for discussion on the TWS and a time shall be set for the calls. 06:29:10 NSD, VNFFGD, VNFD, and similar 06:29:15 not sure what you mean by common infra 06:29:16 #topic Joint TSC Board meeting preparation 06:29:28 I agree on the info model 06:29:36 ChrisPriceAB, That was to me 06:30:33 bryan_att, I would add a shared message queue, app catalog, BPMS... 06:30:43 #info dmcbride has prepared material for the meeting. 06:31:09 #action dmcbride to distribute the material and TSC members to comment. 06:31:54 dneary: OK, I agree there should be a common ground, e.g. what the MODM determined i.e. parsers, app catalog, multi-IaaS plugin frameworks - the other things you mention are good examples too 06:32:54 #info uli-k outlines the SPC joint session is being discussed, the SPC goals will be shared openly now prior to the call. 06:33:28 #action rpaik to complete the Bitergia roadmap slides with dneary and also send out to the TSC mailing list 06:34:28 Items Uli mentioned: NFV reference platform; NFV reference methodology; evolvability; scalability; global utility 06:34:37 #info the SPC has an interest to form a working group to address long term planning and community themes 06:34:51 #info to be discussed further at the Board/TSC f2f 06:35:02 We will have to interpret those concepts with details to be sure we are all on the same page 06:35:08 ulik, Is this related to this afternoon's "OPNFV strategy and roadmap" session? 06:35:23 #topic TSC Governance discussion for the joint Board-TSC meeting 06:37:56 #info ChrisPriceAB discusses feedback on the TSC composition (e.g. improve the meritocratic nature of the TSC) 06:39:33 #info TSC constitution discussion includes maintain the current setup (with committer at large); migrate to an elected TSC; migrate to a fullt merit-based TSC 06:40:28 ChrisPriceAB, "Best suits our needs" - can you summarise what those are, please? 06:41:44 clarification: per the earlier comment, the TSC has "no qualified members" only because we have no agreed qualification method. We need to first agree upon such a method if we are to move toward a meritocratic TSC. 06:44:26 Perhaps someone should put up a wiki page where what "best suits our needs" can be commented on by the existing TSC and membership. We need to get to know what the community thinks is needed. 06:44:47 Not hearing the speaker well. 06:46:05 bryan_att, Sorry - that was me. I asked the question I asked in channel - what are the trade-offs I don't see if we move away from designate TSC members? 06:47:27 bryan_att, The first question was whether this was a board-driven discussion, whether we needed board approval, or whether the TSC was letting the board know what we wanted to do (ie not asking permission). 06:48:06 #info frankbrockners notes that there maybe a potentential tradeoff that we need to consider when Platinum members do not automatically get a TSC seat 06:48:25 #info dneary asked whether this discussion was the board asking the TSC to change, the TSC asking the board to recommend a structure change, or the TSC informing the board of how we decide to change 06:48:33 dneary: OK, that comes back to what "best suits our needs" input from the existing TSC and membership. It could be that what suits our needs is that we have TSC members with specific types of skillsets/focus, i.e. how you define merit is key, if you focus on merit at all. 06:49:05 #info ChrisPriceAB says it could be any of the three, right now the board has flagged the concern that the TSC (and project) is perceived as pay-to-play 06:49:49 #info dneary asked what "suits our needs" means, and what were the trade-offs which would prevent us going to a fully elected-from-community TSC 06:51:18 ChrisPriceAB: we need to get the board to clarify what other types of ways to get to "play" are preferred vs "paying". 06:51:19 #info Several replies - a TSC seat is one of the carrots we "sell" when getting Platinum members to pay; it has been useful to have designates to ensure that there is a communication channel from the community (TSC and projects) into the members 06:51:50 #info ulik asks how it would work in practice - who would vote/choose TSC members? 06:53:04 "What should be done" is at least to understand better the concerns that the Board is responding to. At this point we have a fairly vague concern over "pay to play". So I don't agree that anything needs to be done, other than 1st clarify the Board's concerns and get those who stimulated it to come forward and speak plainly about their concerns. 06:55:54 #info Is there a concern about TSC size? The main issue is achieving quorum. 06:57:18 #info If we have elected membership delegates, we should ensure other membership classes are represented. 06:58:04 #info The by-laws allow the TSC to have committers elected to the TSC 07:00:00 #info if we can get a breakout room, we could have further discussions prior to the Board meeting 07:00:13 #endmeeting
