Meeting summary
---------------

* Ray Paik  (rpaik, 14:05:20)
* Brian Skerry  (bjskerry, 14:05:25)
* David McBride  (dmcbride, 14:05:42)
* from TSC minutes June 28th: "Project structure, scope and coordination
  discussion: There are a number of projects that have not been active
  or staffed by a single company and has not been able to attract new
  contributors.  There was a good discussion on different metrics to
  determine the health/status of projects.  Brian Skerry and Tapio
  agreed to meet after their vacations to continue evaluating this
  topic.  "  (bjskerry, 14:06:05)
* Some projects are still alive, even though they appeared dormant for a
  while.  (bjskerry, 14:07:44)
* Examples of projects that had no activity for a while but had
  presentations at the last summit  (bjskerry, 14:09:00)
* There are really two types of dormant projects; those that have
  indicated they plan to participate in a given release and those that
  don't  (bjskerry, 14:10:58)
* If there is nothing happening for multiple release cycles that
  indicates a problem  (bjskerry, 14:12:44)
* in addition if there is nothing happening in the OPNFV tools (e.g.
  Jira, git/gerritt, etc.)  (rpaik, 14:13:35)
* For some projects there are activities, but nothing is being recorded.
  Having a well-defined process might give projects the incentive to
  keep status up to date.  (bjskerry, 14:16:21)
* Need a way for projects to withdraw intent to participate in a release
  (bjskerry, 14:16:41)
* another criteria is when the project team members are not responsive
  (rpaik, 14:17:23)
* Meeting minutes are another criteria  (bjskerry, 14:18:59)
* LINK: https://www.gotomeeting.com/join/991112053  (rpaik, 14:19:39)
* Can we use Bitergia as an first level indicator of a potential
  problem?  (bjskerry, 14:25:24)
* discussion on quarterly report out to the TSC on dormant projects
  (rpaik, 14:29:31)
* I wonder what are the basic metrics we might want to try out.
  (ChrisPriceAB, 14:29:37)
* suggested metrics: no activities on the repo's, Jira (per Bitergia),
  no updates on the wiki, and project team members not responsive
  (rpaik, 14:30:59)
* activity in the repository:  Can this be measured in a metric
  indicative of both contributions to the repo and the level of activity
  of the projects committers?  (ChrisPriceAB, 14:32:18)
* For Colorado: of all the projects that planned to participate, 6 to 8
  didn't make it.  (bjskerry, 14:33:03)
* an example of activity metric could be 1-10 for repo activities; 1-10
  for closed Jira tickets; etc.  (rpaik, 14:42:29)
* There are really two issues: 1. Objective criteria for health of each
  project; 2. For little to no activity for a project what should we do
  about it  (bjskerry, 14:47:28)
* LINK: https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/SWREL/Releases+Colorado+Projects
  (bjskerry, 14:48:55)
* discussion on doing a quarterly report of project health  (rpaik,
  14:53:16)
* Need to have a discussion in the TSC for projects that are not ready
  for colorado  (bjskerry, 14:56:44)
* projects previously removed from Colorado:  Escalator, RS, Policy Test
  (dmcbride, 15:00:58)
