The policy is important where multiple companies, including potential industry competitors, are participating in meetings. Please review and if you have any questions, please contact your company legal counsel. Members of the LF may contact Andrew Updegrove at the firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, which provides legal counsel to the LF.

Key updates

  • github org level access: there is no way for us (in SIG Auto or SIG NW Arch) to add developers to the Nephio org. There needs to be a process for this in order to onboard new members to the community

    • either direct access for SIG chairs, or LFN needs to define a process which needs to be quick (< 24 hours)

    • An email has been sent to LFN support already

      • short-term: onboard the specific individuals

      • longer-term: define a process -

        @Casey Cain can we get a process for onboarding new developers to the Nephio org
        @Casey Cain we need a process for managing, creating, moving meetings
      • There is a similar issue with meeting set-ups which needs to be made quicker and easier

  • Meetings are anchored to different timezones

    • this means that some meetings which were anchored to UTC clash with meetings that were anchored to PST

    • all meetings should be anchored to the same timezone (PST)

      • SIG Automation and O-RAN meetings are an example of a clash

      •  

        @Casey Cain check the meetings that are scheduled for the wrong time-zone

 

SIG Network Architecture

Good scope being created for R5

Now need to start looking at the longer-term vision for Nephio

In order to take on new developers (from LFN) we need to start working on a “Statement of Work” to scope the activity. @Liam Fallon has requested that @Sana Tariq will join the SIG Auto meeting to solicit for help on creating the SoW. @balaji varadaraju will start the initial document skeleton to seed the material.

Call to action for TSC members and community to solicit volunteers for WG5 (assurance) and WG6 (GenAI) meetings
