10 min
  • Walter as the board representative
    1. My plan is to create a cross LFN wiki site to collect information, suggestions, feedback from the projects, as well as to convey the Board related and appropriate information to the project committers.
    2. My suggestion would be to have a regular (say once in a quarter or at least 6 months) an open Board meeting (like we did for AI).
    3. I think, we will need to raise a proposal for the Board to assist in seeking more resources and other (what?) support for the LFN activities.
    4. In my view, Board could influence LFN bodies to help in better marketing the projects and the committers’ efforts.  Any good ideas how?
    5. Perhaps IT support issues if we think that they should be improved.
Not in attendance so tabling discussion.

Sandra Jackson 

  • The LFN build server (Jenkins) is up and running, but the Anuket jobs are not added
  • LFN-s assumption was that the Orange build server (Jenkins) is temporary
  • We do not know what runners are used by the LFN and by the Orange build server
  • Cédric Ollivier to explain the build server situation tomorrow in the weekly technical meeting
1 min


2 min
  • Moving LaaS repos to GitHub
  • Gergely Csatari will create the repos and push the current LaaS master from Gerrit

  •  Laas-reflab
    • Everything in the seed code already set up with MIT license

    • +1: 5 / 0: 0 / -1: 1
5 min
  • Separate repo and readthedocs or one repo and readthedocs
    • Separate repos – multiple readthedocs
      • Benefits
        • Possibility to have separate builds. A bit more isolation of errors (e.g: a broken link in RA2 will not break the build of RM)
        • Cedric already did the repo separation
      • Drawbacks
        • Lots of GitHub repos to manage
        • Lots of Readthedocs projects to manage
        • GitHub actions need to be rewritten and reconfigured in all the repos
        • Difficult to implement any theme changes
    • One repo – one readthedocs
      • Benefits
        • One GitHub repo and one Readthedocs to manage
        • Same look and feel of all the specs
      • Drawbacks
        • Needs a little bit of editing in the main index.rst
  • Will be discussed in the weekly technical meeting tomorrow
5 min
    • Value of Anuket / Anuket Task force (https://lf-anuket.atlassian.net/wiki/x/oxZOAQ)
      • A very subjective project health assessment
        • Kubref - Ask Dan Xu about status.  Generally has not been actively been worked on for months
        • Barometer - There is no PTL
        • Vineperf - Probably there is no PTL
        • Thoth – PTL (Rohit Singh Rathaur )
          • A: Beth Cohen will work with the AI taskforce to move Thoth to the AI project.
        • RM - active, but heavily relies on Walter Kozlowski as a PTL, who is doing the work to move to GSMA docs repository and updates to add new technology
        • RA1 - mature, only doc theme related changed in Orinoco
        • RI1 - mature, only doc theme related changed in Orinoco
        • RC1 - practically merged to RA1, no changes in Orinoco
        • RA2 - Active, but limited on resources (3 active contributors)
        • RI2 - Active, but limited on resources
        • RC2 - Cedric Ollivier is now PTL and re-activated.  1 active contributor
        • Functest, functest-kubernetes - active, relies on Cedric Ollivier alone
      • Discuss in TSC
        • Should we archive the inactive projects? We need to synch with the project contributors on this.
        • Discuss Vineperf and Thoth status
        • Focus resources on RM, R*2 and functest*
