Agenda

The project's Antitrust Policy, which you can find linked from the LF and project websites. 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.

SIG Status

  • Some status updates on NF Deployment are being made which will improve feedback

  • Other discussions around GenAI are being made with other companies TBD

  • R7 release is under discussion, some of the existing items will fall organically in to the R7 roadmap

Automation

  • Well attended meeting yesterday with presentation on the NFDeployment use case which was well received

  • Main issue is to see how it will get implmented, have we got community resources to work on the Nephio operators for Free5GC for example?

  • Porch documentation updates are progressing well

  • Porch is being updated to use kpt.dev rather than GoogleContainerTools - lots of references in both kpt and porch are needed.

Release

  • Update on proposal for release SIG from Nephio developer event

Security

  • .

Other Updates

  • We will need to vote to approve budgets by tomorrow - we will plan for discretionary funding unless there are significant expenditures envisaged
