- TSC meeting around the holidays: There was a consensus to cancel the TSC meeting on December 26th and resume on January 2nd. (The release meeting will follow the same pattern) . For the TSC meeting on January 2nd, no agenda topics will require a vote as people may still be on holidays and we may have challenges getting a quorum.
- IPv6 graduation review: Bin summarized accomplishments of the IPv6 team since project creation including participation in 4 consecutive releases with contributions coming from 40+ individuals representing 20+ organizations. There were also numerous contributions to upstream projects such as ODL and OpenStack. Future plans for IPv6 include more installer support, container networking, and more upstream maintenance in ODL (e.g. external routing, infra support, BGPVPN, cluster support, etc.) . In response to a question on XCI, Bin noted that the plan is to join the XCI effort after the Fraser release. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the graduation review for the IPv6 project.
- ONS update: Ray noted that plan is to have 1 1/2 days long developer focused event ("LFN Developer Forum") to start the ONS week. There will be more announcements on tracks and planning process in January.
- Release update: David McBride recapped Euphrates 5.1 release and Fraser MS3.0 compliance for all installers on December 15th. The next major milestone for Fraser is MS4 (test framework ready) on January 12th.
- LF IT/Infra update: Trevor Bramwell noted that there are reports of Jenkins slaves not being able to connect and this may require a reboot. For the Jenkins upgrade, still looking for community pods for testing. There was also spam on #opnfv-meeting channel over the weekend and investigating ways to respond to spams more quickly
- OPNFV User Support: Tim Irnich summarized user support discussion at the Plugfest. For Stack Overflow, there was a discussion on where OPNFV-related questions will initially fit in before OPNFV gets "established" in Stack Overflow. Dave Neary encouraged community members to start using Stack Overflow soon to quickly establish ourselves. Ray/Trevor Bramwell took an action item to learn from ODL's recent migration from AskBot to Stack Overflow.

- New OPNFV governance documents: Scott Nicholas gave an overview of the new Charter document and noted that new governance documents are based on existing OPNFV governance documents such as Bylaws, IP Policy, certificate of incorporation, etc. Under the LFN, the TSC will be responsible for the governance (e.g. license exceptions, amending the Charter, etc.). A Series Manager is responsible for business operations (e.g. getting a new domain name, signing documents, etc.). Discussion ensued on the rest of the document, and the TSC agreed to the new Technical Charter and Technical Procedures documents to be effective as of January 1st, 2018.
- Release update: David McBride noted that Fraser MS 3 (integration with OpenStack-Pike) plus Euphrates 5.1 release is this Friday. Fraser MS 3.1 (no-sdn and no-feature scenarios pass health check) is January 15th. David is also looking for additional volunteers for milestone exception reviews. For Euphrates 5.1, David will be sending out an email to the TSC for a vote.
- LF IT/Infra update: Trevor Bramwell mentioned that he will be sending out an announcement for system reboot next week.
- Octopus Termination review: Uli noted that Octopus activities are now part of Pharos or Releng and there are no active contributors to the project. Scenario Descriptor File (SDF) work is now in the Pharos repo. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved termination of the Octopus project.
- Committer list per releng repositories: Fatih noted that there are 5 repo's under releng (for tooling, security, test-results, etc.) and OpenStack Infra has a similar setup with separate committers for each sub-repo's. Current releng committers also voted on the proposal. Fatih added that committers for each repo's will be nominated based on past contributions and there will be separate INFO files for each sub-repo's. The TSC agreed that the releng team can have committers for each repo's.

- OPNV Verified Program (or CVP) way forward: Wenjing noted that as the initial program is about to launch, we need a perspective on way forward. Feedback received so far include testing all scenarios produced by OPNFV community, security, reliability, etc. in future releases. In terms of "big block" questions to addresses, items such as completing "baseline" requirements and realization of the program value were discussed. Tim Irnich added that a "top-down" input could be useful to complement the bottoms-up approach that was taken for the first release of OPNFV Verified Program. There will be a 3 hour session for Dovetail during the Plugfest and time could be devoted to a prioritization exercise for future releases.
- Release update: David noted that Euphrates 5.1 is scheduled for December 15th and reported improved stability on the Euphrates stable over the past week. Fraser MS 3.1 is also on December 15th (OpenStack-Pike integration for installers)

Minutes:
- Previous minutes approved.
- LF Networking update: Heather reviewed the new legal structure under LF Networking (LFN) that was shared during webinars last week. The Technical Charter document will replace the current OPNFV Bylaws and the proposal is to keep the current TSC as is for about a year while the community figures out the merit-based composition. Tim Irnich noted that there's no need to wait 12 months to figure out the new TSC composition and this could be done sooner. The TSC Procedures document replaces the current TSC Charter. Under LFN, both documents can be changed and approved by the TSC (following legal review). Heather added that both documents need to be in place before the end of 2017 and focus on the review should be if they reflect OPNFV today.
- Release update: David McBride noted that MS1 was November 3rd and DPACC is one project that is not compliant and thus removed from the Fraser release. MS2 (test case documentation) is this Friday (17th) and MS 3.1 (OpenStack integration for installers) is December 15th. Reminder on Euphrates 2.0 release on December 15th and unfortunately many scenarios (19) are failing to deploy.
- LF IT/Infra update: Trevor Bramwell discussed the Jenkins upgrade plan and Zuul trial. The Confluence upgrade won't happen until the Jenkins upgrade is completed.
- CVP update: Wenjing recapped the beta progress over the past ~6 weeks and noted that two revisions were made to the Dovetail tool during the beta. Both commercial products and OPNFV artifacts were tested during the beta and Wenjing added that beta participants can resubmit their test results after the program launch if there are no changes to test cases. Beta testing can continue for participants who have not completed their testing and the Dovetail team is available to help. Wenjing also discussed future plans including security, resiliency, expansion of functional capabilities, etc. in coordination with the Test WG. Via IRC vote, the TSC agreed that the CVP beta testing has been successfully completed and all technical tasks are complete prior to Board approval.

- David McBride mentioned that 38 projects have declared intent to participate in Fraser for MS1. However, a few projects are missing release plans as highlighted in https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/SWREL/Milestone+Compliance+for+Fraser. MS2 (test plans) for Fraser is on November 17th. Tim Irnich asked if it would be possible to get an early view of what's new in Fraser and some of the suggestion were ONAP integration, OPNFV's role in VNF certification, etc. Tim & David took an action item to scrub release plan pages to get a view on noteworthy items for the Fraser release.
- For Euphrates, Euphrates 5.1 is schedule for December 15th and David encouraged everyone to start contributing to the Euphrates Retrospectives page.
- Plugfest update: Ray shared that proposed sessions are being organized into "tracks" and an early view of the schedule can be found at the Plugfest Planning Page.

David will also kick off the retrospectives process for Euphrates.
- LF IT/Infra update: Aricg discussed renaming repo's of terminated project so that it clear that projects are no longer active (repo's of terminated projects are read-only). There were some concerns that active project maybe referencing terminated projects and renaming the repo's could break things. There was a consensus to simply add notations in INFO files for terminated projects. There are no scheduled IT maintenance/downtime.
- Clover creation review: Wenjing noted that the goal of the project is to support VNFs developed as cloud native apps and focus will be on micro-services (unlike other existing OPNFV projects like Container4NFV that focus on containers or k8s). Clover will also look at Continuous Delivery so that components can be updated live independently. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved creation of the Clover project.
- Networking projects harmonization: Heather discussed that there will be a webinar to provide updates on projects harmonization for the technical community and email will be coming from Phil Robb. Webinars are planned for November 6th at 6pm Pacific Time and November 7th at 7am Pacific Time. Release meeting on the 7th will be cancelled to accommodate the webinar. Goal is for minimal disruptions for the technical communities, and there will be further discussions after webinars.
- TSC composition: There are multiple wiki pages on this topic and Ray took an action item to consolidate them into a single page. Frank also solicited volunteers to participate in further discussions on this topic and Ray will be reaching out to the volunteers.

- OPNFV user support: Ray discussed channels available for user support such as opnfv-users mailing list/ask.opnfv.org and challenges with these channels. Tim Irnich asked if issues are with tools or if we should also look at things like docs, wiki, software downloads page, and others. There was a good discussion on having focused activities on this topic with community volunteers and Ray took an action item to continue the discussion on mailing lists. The goal of the activity is to help make OPNFV easier to consume and if a user has questions make it obvious where s/he can go ask and/or look for answers. Another suggestion was made to add this as a future topic in the EUAG meeting.

- CD/XCI discussion: Fatih provided an update on CD-oriented release process, CI Evolution, Dynamic CI, etc. and proposal for a "stable track" plus a "latest track". Brian Skerry asked if it'd possible for different projects using components like ODL to use different versions of ODL under the proposal and Fatih confirmed that would be the case. The "latest track" is going to be an option to support the developer community and projects like FDS are already taking the "latest track" approach. Dave Neary asked if there are concerns with resource scalability and Fatih noted that there will be an initial burden on the XCI/relelng team but overtime work should be picked up by individual projects. A question was raised how this will work with the current release milestone/model, and Fatih replied that some of these questions will be answered after this is tried out. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the latest track to enable introduction of CD/XCI into OPNFV.

- Euphrates update: David McBride noted that the status has improved slightly over the weekend, but the overall status is not satisfactory. There are still on-going issues with resources due to holidays and lab access. The consensus was that the quality/situation is likely to increase with additional time. However, there was also a good discussion that there is a need to revisit release criteria and process/timeline between the last major milestone and the release. There was also a good discussion on what to do with "point" releases if the initial Euphrates release is delayed and as time was running short, an agreement to continue that discussion over mailing list. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the new Euphrates release target date of Oct. 20, 2017
- LF IT/infra update: Trevor Bramwell noted that systems update would be required for Gerrit/Jira/Confluence/Etherpad and this would require a reboot. Suggestion was made for Trevor to move the discussion to the mailing list to gauge if there are any concerns from the community.

- Tapio summarized the Board meeting from September 14th and noted that the CVP and LaaS discussions didn't involve any vote/budget approval from the Board. Ray took an action item to share the "developer community activities" slides from the Board meeting with the community.
- Euphrates update: David McBride noted that MS7 was last Friday and stable branch was done for all projects. David also reminded the community that that test framework & CI to need to come on line for stable branch.
- LF IT/Infra update: No scheduled maintenance.
- XCI update on future OPNFV releases: Fatih discussed proposal to adjust release process to accommodate CD while not interrupting the stable release process. Discussions are also on-going for versioning/tagging plus roles for components/scenarios. Plan is to come back to the TSC on October 10th prior to kicking off the POC.
- CVP discussion and vote: Wenjing recapped the presentation from last week and noted that the plan is to start the beta testing phase once there's a TSC approval. The plan is to complete the beta phase in mid-November, and the Dovetail team is seeking approval on test scope, test spec, and workflow. There was a good discussion benefits of participating in the beta and if beta results can be used for certification after the CVP launch. Trevor clarified that the results of the beta program cannot be used to certify a product, and Wenjing took an action item to to update the beta participation bullet on the Dovetail beta page. Wenjing also added that the plan is to come back to the TSC for another vote before going to the Board for final approval of the CVP launch. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the CVP test scope, test specification, and workflow for the Dovetail team to move forward with beta testing.

- Community elections reminder: Ray reminded all eligible committer members to vote for the Committers-at-Large TSC and Committer Board elections this week
- Euphrates update: David McBride noted that the stable branch window closes this Friday (Sep 15th) and people should notify Aric for stable branching. David is also following up with PTLs on JIRA tickets cleanup. Fu Qiao commented that there is a 8-day holiday period in China in early October and this would be something to keep in mind as the community works towards the Euphrates release.
- F-release: David noted that the proposed schedule for the F-release has MS0 starting on October 2nd, and he tried to avoid holidays/events for major milestones. There was a suggestion to add F-release plugfest (early June) to the release calendar. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the F-release schedule.
- LF IT/infra update: No maintenance scheduled
- LaaS update: Frank noted that the purpose of LaaS is to provide HW resources for community members (e.g. virtual deployment, bare metal deployment, running ONAP, etc) and the Infra WG has looked at HW resources (both x86 & ARM) that can support these use cases. Fatih added that the public cloud is not a viable option for LaaS. There was a good discussion on server types and Fatih noted that it makes more sense to have homogeneous server hardware for flexibility (e.g. for vPOD and baremetal). There was an agreement from the TSC on the LaaS proposal and to continue moving forward with this (pending budget approval from the Board)
- CVP update: Wenjing summarized activities since the OPNFV Summit (e.g. agreement on test scope, workflow, development of web portal, etc.). The test scope includes cloud capabilities for VNFs, HA, NFV-specific (IPv6, SDNVPN), etc. Wenjing added that some of the test cases are optional as they may have limited commercial use, they have not been accepted upstream, etc. Request was made to community members to review the web portal along with documentations that are listed in his presentation. In addition, there's a proposal for a ~6-week beta test period starting in late September, and resiliency/stress testing will not be part of the initial CVP release. Wenjing will come back to the TSC next week for TSC approval on test scope, approach, beta dates/schedule.

If any corrections are needed, please let Ray know by noon Pacific Time on September 1st. This will be followed by a nominations period on September 4th, and Ray encouraged diversity (e.g. geography, gender, projects, service providers, etc.) of nominees for elections.
- Euphrates update: David McBride reported that all projects with the exception of Parser have met the MS5 milestone. David will contact the Parser team one more time to confirm their plan for Euphrates. For MS6, ~75% of projects reported back and exceptions requests for MS6 needs to be submitted by September 1st. MS6 also opens the stable branch window and this will close at MS7 (September 15).
- LF IT/Infra update: Rudy mentioned that no security updates are planned, but to expect updates on Jenkins upgrade with CentOS 7.4 release.
- XCI update: Fatih noted that three OPNFV scenarios for Euphrates will use OpenStack and OpenDaylight master, and based on their experience with these scenarios can report their learnings to the community after MS7 (Sep. 15th). Today XCI supports three distros (CentOS, SUSE, and Ubuntu).
- Creation review for Stor4NFV: Shane explained that the goal of the project is to investigate storage intensive workloads (e.g. vCDN) and the project team will work with communities such as OpenSDS and Ceph (several project committers/contributors are already working in these upstream communities). Shane also noted that there is no additional hardware requirement for the project, and in terms of testing no special tests will be developed on Day 1. Initially Apex & Compass installers will be targeted. Community members made a recommendation to the Stor4NFV team to avoid forking upstream code and instead only maintain upstream patches in OPNFV. Via IRC vote the TSC approved creation of Stor4NFV project.

- Auto project creation review: Tina noted that additional committers have been added to the project. As for F-release deliverables, they are mostly outlined in the overall goal of the project. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved creation of the Auto project.
- OpenRetriever project name change: The proposal is to change the project name from Container4NFV. A question was raised if the focus of the project is on containers in general or on Containers in OpenStack. Xuan noted that so far the focus of the project team has been on Kubernetes on bare metal (and not OpenStack specific). There is also no change in the scope of the project. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the project name change to Container4NFV.
- LF IT/Infra update: No planned maintenance upcoming.
- Euphrates update: Ray noted that the additional 2 weeks for MS5 seemed to have helped many project teams as only 3 projects are requesting Exception Reviews.
- Exception review for Calipso: Frank reported that the project team is working with the Apex team on items listed in the Exception Review request and items flagged during security scan. The team expect to complete their work by August 25th. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the MS5 exception request for Calipso.

Minutes:

- Multisite termination review: Multisite is a "requirements project" where a lot of development work was done in OpenStack. Former user (Deleted) had stepped down as a PTL and no one else from the community volunteered to lead the project. There was a discussion that multisite is one of the pain points from the End User Advisory Group, but it does not make sense to put the project on hold when there is no one to lead the effort. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved project termination.
- Creation review for Auto project: Tina discussed that the project will focus on ONAP component integration and verification with OPNFV reference platforms/scenarios. Bryan Sullivan added that there has also been discussion with the Opera team on future collaboration. There was a question on Auto project's dependency on installers, and the response was that this should be the focus of Opera project. There were concerns about the lack of number of committers (there is only one at the moment) and request for additional detail on F-release deliverables. The Auto team will come back to the TSC when these questions are addressed.
- Euphrates update: Ray reminded everyone that the new MS5 (scenario integration + feature freeze) is this Friday (Aug. 11th). If anyone is unable to meet the new MS5 date, they need to request an exception at Milestone Exception Requests for Euphrates. The new MS6 (test case implementation + preliminary documentation) date is Aug. 25th. The updated schedule for Euphrates is now also posted at Euphrates and the new target date for Euphrates 1.0 is October 6th.
- LF IT/infra update: No new planned maintenance this week. There was however issue with ericsson-build3,4 running out of disk space yesterday, and Trevor Bramwell will be looking into distributing resources better.
- Multiple repo's/projects: Ray follow-up on discussions from a couple of weeks ago and noted that there is no written rule in OPNFV regarding single repo/project, but this is mostly based on convention. The TSC agreed to give PTLs and project teams the freedom to make a decision on multiple repos as long as they notify the community when additional repos are created for their projects. Suggestions were made to make a note of relationship with main project repo in the INFO file and follow a naming convention such as "project name-subrepo".
- TSC elections: Tapio noted that normally annual elections for Committers-at-large TSC members, TSC Chair, and Committer Board member would take place in September timeframe. However, with networking projects harmonization the question is if the community should proceed with elections. There was a consensus to have the annual elections in September timeframe regardless of on going activities around project harmonization.

- Request for OPNFV infra resources for project Bamboo PNDA instance: Frank summarized the Bamboo use cases that was presented at the Beijing Summit and noted that the pricing on GCE is about $388/month. The suggestion is to try this out for 5-6 months and evaluate if it makes sense to continue making this investment. There were questions on the outcome of the exercise, and Frank noted that the proposed value is correlation of data amongst test results from functest, qtip, and barometer. This is also an exploratory effort as post processing may help the community understand some of the test data (e.g. from Yardstick). A suggestion was made to shorten the "evaluation period" so that the community can assess the value of the effort after ~3 months (vs. 5-6 months). Via IRC vote, the TSC approved using funds from "TSC Initiatives" for Bamboo team to try out their exploration on GCE.
- LF IT/Infra update: Java security update was done over the weekend, and there are no schedule maintenance this week.
- Euphrates update: David McBride noted that there have been a large number of requests for MS5 exceptions and most were requesting collapsing MS5 with MS6. In addition, there are still 2-3 projects that have not requested their status for MS5. Since there was such a large number (12) of projects requesting exceptions for MS5, discussion ensued on shifting the entire Euphrates schedule out by 2 weeks. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved shifting the Euphrates schedule (incl. the release date) out by 2 weeks. There was a good discussion on community resource challenges when people need to work on SR in addition to the next release (especially when SR's are delayed). Questions were also raised about the XCI activities and if they are also part of the release plus if the TSC need to clarify what constitutes a release. Fatih took an action item to provide an XCI update to the TSC towards the end of the month.

- Request for OPNFV infra resources for project Bamboo PNDA instance: Donald shared that the purpose of the resource is to deploy an infrastructure for Bamboo PNDA analytics. Insight into correlation different OPNFV test data is one of the value that the project team is looking to provide to the community. BM is not required and VM deployment (e.g. on GCE) will work. Ray noted that there's funding in TSC Initiatives if there's a consensus to try this out for few quarters on GCE and there could be a checkpoint to evaluate value to OPNFV. Donald took an action item to articulate the benefits to OPNFV from Bamboo PNDA analytics and work with Aric to get a GCE quote/pricing before coming back to the TSC.
- Euphrates update: David McBride noted that MS5 (scenario integration/feature freeze) is July 28th. MS6 (test cases + preliminary documentation) is next on August 11th. Stable branch window is between August 11th to September 1st. For projects that miss the MS5 date, there's a grace period of one week thus the exception request needs to be submitted by August 4th.
- LF IT/infra update: Trevor Bramwell announced upcoming Java service restarts to address recently announce vulnerability. Tentatively scheduled for this Saturday the 29th. Should be less than 30 minutes of downtime and this affects Gerrit, Jenkins, Jira, and wiki. In addition Rudy is investigating opnfv-tech-dicuss subscription to the status.opnfv.org page.
- Testing working group proposal on test strategy evolution: Gabriel noted that there was a discussion in the Infra WG and a request for a POD for stress testing ( INFRA-154 - Getting issue details... STATUS ). The stress testing will include new test cases developed for Euphrates in addition to those already developed for Danube. There was a discussion on doing stress testing beyond OpenStack and to move towards testing OPNFV components.
- Projects health metrics: Ray presented the Q2'17 data on activities across all projects. Conversations have started with some of the PTLs that have low activity levels. There was also a discussion on tracking upstream work (e.g. for Barometer and FDS). Ray took an action item to follow-up with Frank and others in the fd.io community on tracking upstream work in fd.io.

Minutes:
- Security gate check/Anteater: Luke noted that Anteater scans against patchsets and logs are generated (e.g. flagging security issues). Luke also discussed setting up Anteater as a chron job to notify project team members (e.g. PTLs, committers, etc.) and asked how this could be done securely so that sensitive information is not made public. Uli suggested that scanning could also be scheduled via Jenkins. Luke/Aric took an action items to start a discussion on mailing lists on how to store/communicate sensitive information from Anteater.
- Multiple repo's for OPNFV projects: Releng & Apex has been working with multiple repo's for their projects. Tim Rozet discussed that for Apex they need to modify upstream code and additional repo's are used to fork upstream code to put NFV features. In the past, the Apex team had a separate Github repo for the upstream work, but now this has been brought into OPNFV. There was a good discussion on whether to continue having an approval process for individual projects to have multiple repo's or allow project teams to create multiple repos for their projects by default. Ray took an action item to investigate where there is a written rule on one repo/project and report back to the community.
- Request for OPNFV infra resources for project Bamboo PNDA instance: There was a discussion on the request from the Bamboo team and one of the alternatives is to use Google Compute Engine (GCE) and Donald Hunter is getting more details on resource requirements. There were suggestions to also look at other alternatives besides GCE and Ray will ping Donald to return to the TSC call next week.
- Danube/Euphrates update: David McBride announced that the Danube 3.0 is now available on the software downloads page. For Euphrates, MS5 (scenario integration & feature freeze) is July 28th and MS6 (test cases implementation) is August 11th. The expectation is that there are no new scenarios created after the MS5 date.
- LF IT/infra update: Rudy provided a report on the Portland data center outage last week. There was an impact on many of the OPNFV services as Git/Gerrit/JIRA were out for about 30 minutes and the wiki was unavailable for almost 3 hours. Root cause analysis is on-going and will be communicated on the status.opnfv.org page when available. opnfv-tech-discuss mailing list is now also subscribed to the updates on the status.opnfv.org page.
- Test working group proposal: Uli noted that there's an outstanding action item from last week for the Test Working Group to discuss their proposal with the Infra Working group, but this has not been done yet. There was also a discussion the preference to perform stability testing on existing OPNFV scenarios (using existing installers). The consensus was to continue the discussion next week.

There are also two scenarios that are new for Danube 3.0 involving Barometer and ONOS-SFC. Three options for Danube 3.0 were discussed (1) release as is (2) move the release date again, and (3) drop Danube 3.0. David took an action item to follow-up with scenario owners to get the latest one their status for Danube 3.0 prior to an email vote.
- LF IT/infra update: Morgan noted that the test results database is not responsive and filed a ticket with the helpdesk.
- Test working group update: Morgan noted that there has been a lack of stress/resiliency testing in OPNFV as requested by the End User Advisory Group. However, stress/resiliency testing requires a stable solution and this would imply two chains of testing for the upcoming release plus the current release. There was a consensus to continue the discussion on the mailing list and Morgan took an action item to also work with the Infra Working Group and come back to the TSC with a proposal.

- Euphrates: David McBride discussed the MS 3.1 status for installer teams and reminded the community of the next major milestone MS5 (scenario integration & feature freeze).
- Danube 3.0: David noted that JOID has not been able to run jobs in the past couple of weeks due to pod issues. Narinder took the action item to contact Ross at Intel to resolve pod access issues. Other installers are mostly doing OK, but Compass team is still working on onon-sfc scenario and the Apex team is also continuing to work on a few scenarios for bgpvpn, fds, etc. There was a discussion on pushing out the release to July 10th, but this may impact Compass' team work on the Euphrates release. David took an action item to follow-up with the Compass team to understand the impact on further delay for Danube 3.0. David will then follow-up with the TSC on a proposed Danube 3.0 release date.
- LF IT/infra update: Rudy discussed the new status page that will be a central place for systems status, news on upgrades, outages, etc. and the is subscribable. The link to the status page is also listed on the main and Infra WG wiki pages. Rudy also noted that he will subscribe opnfv-tech-discuss mailing list to updates on status.opnfv.org and will investigate adding tags if possible.
- Functest graduation review: Jose presented the history of Functest including committers, accomplishments over OPNFV releases (dating back to Arno), and community participation in the project both in terms of individuals and organizations. Comments were made that the presentation materials were well put together and is a good example for other projects to follow for future graduation reviews. Via IRC vote, the TSC approved Functest graduation review. This makes Functest the first mature project in OPNFV, and Tapio encourage other projects interested in graduation review to step forward.
- Testing working group: Morgan noted that email has been sent out on test strategy evolution and welcomes feedback from the community. The proposal is to add more stability testing, which will require more time for testing. There will be more discussion during this week's Technical Community call on June 29th.
- Dovetail update: Wenjing notes that the Dovetail test scope document is in place and is asking for TSC review/feedback. Tim Irnich also sent out an email during the Design Summit summarizing action items with a request for TSC feedback. Wenjing took an action item to send out an email with a final call for feedback on the Dovetail scope for the Danube release.

- Graduation review discussion: Tapio noted that the functest team came forward with the graduation review proposal and covers areas such as activities, contributors, accomplishments, etc. over past releases. The proposal will also be reviewed on Thursday's Weekly Community call. There was a question if other projects in the future need to follow Functest graduation review proposal as a template, and Jose replied that the Functest presentation should be viewed as an example. Past discussions on the graduation review can be found at https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/PROJ/Graduation+review+discussions
- June Board meeting update: Tapio discussed that there were a lot of conversations around project harmonization in the Board meeting and potential impact on TSC composition. Fatih/Frank also shared the proposal for Lab-as-a-Service (LaaS) that will require resources for HW equipment and support services. Infra WG will send an invite out to the wider community before Infra WG addresses this topic in their next meeting.
- Euphrates MS3 exception review for Compass: Chigang explained the need for milestone exception for the Compass team and noted that they are asking for delay in MS 3.0 & 3.1 but plan to get caught up my MS 3.2 (July 11th). Via IRC vote, the TSC approved MS3 exception for Compass.
- TSC meeting time: Ray proposed moving the TSC call an hour earlier (6am Pacific Time) to better accommodate community members in Asia. Ray will continue the discussion on the mailing list.
- Dovetail discussion: Tim Irnich noted that the Dovetail team is looking for actionable feedback from the TSC and there's a new email thread seeking feedback at https://lists.opnfv.org/pipermail/opnfv-tech-discuss/2017-June/016631.html

- Euphrates Exception milestone reviews: Bob Monkman noted that Armband is reliant on Fuel installer that is going through major changes and a lot of manual work is involved for the new Fuel installer and the team is playing catch-up (have a target getting "caught-up" my MS5 on July 28th). Armband is also working with the Apex team as another installer option (targeting trial deployment in the next few weeks). Via IRC vote, the TSC approved the ArmBand Exception Review. For the Compass team, suggestions were made to postpone the Exception Review as the project team was not available.
- TSC composition: Tapio notes that there were discussions on the TSC composition during the design summit yesterday. One of the proposals was to limit the size of the TSC to 15 members and have 2 elections (i) for TSC members among Platinum members and (ii) among committers at large prior to transitioning to fully merit-based TSC. Tapio added that that when OPNFV was formed TSC members were populated from Platinums for boot strapping, but there have been discussions of going to fully merit-based TSC. There were discussions on how we’d know if the new TSC would be more effective and collecting issues with the current TSC composition.
- AoB:
- There was a suggestion to add graduation review discussion to next week’s TSC call.
- A wiki page for TSC’s feedback on Dovetail will be created after the Dovetail breakout session during the design summit.
- Bryan announced that he created a new OPAP community wiki page (https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/COM/ONAP) and asked community members to contribute to the page.

- Dovetail: Tapio/Wenjing noted that there has been a lot of discussion on mandatory/optional tests, test scope, etc. There is also a plan to get EUAG feedback at the face-to-face meeting in Beijing next week. There was a discussion on mandatory tests having the goal of broader scenario coverage. In other words, CVP tests should be able to run on more than one scenario as described in the requirements document: "Tests must not require a specific NFVi platform composition or installation tool." Frank also made a suggestion to have the scope document also reviewed by the TSC.
