5 min
  • Separate repo and readthedocs or one repo and readthedocs







Progress on the separate repo – the repos have now been split.  The automatic builds have been disabled, so they need to be turned on by either Sandra Jackson , Cédric Ollivier or Fabio Palumbo (Deactivated) 

Cédric Ollivier will handle the cherry picking.

Use the rm repo instead of the old links.

A: Sandra will check on the status.

5 min
  • The Scan checks to make sure that the licenses are incompliance.  Normally done once or twice a year.  Had stopped for a while, but restarted recently.  Would only apply to code repos, mostly Functest, since the rest of the code projects are archived at this point.
  • List of almost updated list of active repos: Active Anuket repos
  • We can remove this topic form the agenda for now
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.
  • A: Sandra Jackson to run a report on Anuket contributors and commit report

Updates from the LFN Governing Board special meeting held on 13th of December 2024:

  • Revised budget for 2024 was approved by the Board.

    • Update on the progress of the joint LFN/CNFC "Cloud Native Networking" Working Group.

    • Update on the PM/RM staffing decisions impacts on the LFN projects.
  • Beth Cohen is happy to volunteer as a MAC representative
5 min
  • Build server situation
          • The Orange build server is permanent and it is the build server for functest, barometer, NFV bench, vineperf opnvdocs and the anuket-specs
          • The LFN build server is still needed to provide redundancy for critical jobs
          • A: Fabio Palumbo (Deactivated) to share the document describing about responsibilities and scope of use with the build servers

Sandra Jackson
