10 min	Workstream Leads/ Project PTLs standup RI-2 leadership gap Rihab Banday offered possible ways forward: Combine the RI2 project with the Kuberef project, given the fact that we have very limited resources. Keep the RI2 project as an umbrella project for different implementation flavours like Kuberef, Airship and distribute the tasks - this comes with an additional overhead of multiple meetings, etc. And again we have limited resources. Pod resources, refreshes, Redfish(es), other HW topics.	Al Morton	Rihab Banday provided a summary - not many participants, little interest in leading Proposal: Alternate between Kuberef and Airship Installer (Airship meets bi-weekly). There will be Co-leads. Proposal adopted. RI-2 has been an implementation of cookbook based on RA-2 , need to coordinate across the projects - would like to try this. Does it make sense based on RI-1 ?? Both projects need to make sure that their specifica are represented in the documentation. Pod resources in active discussion now. 2021 budget utilization recommendations need discussion (hardware).

LFN Governing Board Member Committers Representative (LGBMCR)

Role:

The role of the LFN Governing Board Member Committers Representative (LGBMCR) is to represent the committers and contributors to LFN projects at the LFN Governing board. The expectation of the LGBMCR is to attend all LFN Governing board meetings (and any appropriate ancillary meetings), gather input from the committer community for issues raised at the board level, and to communicate to the committer community key activities from board.
LGBMCR is elected for the 1 year. Re-election is not possible.

Eligible candidates:

Candidates must be active committers to at least one LFN project.
Candidates can self-nominate, or be nominated by other community members. In the latter case, candidates must accept the nomination before the election is conducted.
Candidates must be an active committer to a LFN project which differs from the LFN project that the currently servicing LGBMCR is an active committer of.
