Minutes

Developer Event Follow Up

• Review the Anuket/Anuket Assured Mission and Scope statements.
  
  • Why: Adapt as needed to articulate a focus on both infrastructure AND workloads.
  • Anuket: https://wiki.anuket.io/display/HOME/About+Anuket
    • Can we add the word "workload" into the Anuket Mission Statement, so it's clear the coverage should extend to both.  Probably a question for the Anuket TSC.
    • Scope looks ok as is.
  • Anuket Assured: https://anuket.io/verification/  and https://www.lfnetworking.org/verification/

• Lincoln Lavoie to review and propose changes to the above two sites and the top level README.md file within the docs repo. So everything is well aligned and clearly indicates both infrastructure AND workloads as a focus.

• Define and agree on a strategy for collaborating with CNCF on CNF conformance.
  • Why: It has been noted that CNCF will be launching their own CNF Conformance Program. An initial meeting has been scheduled for Feb 2nd by Gergely to explore this further.
  • Need to plan the meeting agenda / input items.

• Lincoln Lavoie to make sure this is also made "known" on the Anuket TSC agenda as well.

• Establish formal points of contact from LFN projects that can coordinate directly with Anuket Assured/CVC for conformance testing and badging related activities.
  • Why: To create a regular cadence between LFN projects and Anuket Assured so that we can deliver a robust and expanding badge program.
  • Look into setting a fixed update agenda (i.e. first Monday) of the month is intended as a project update session (i.e. from Anuket RA2 or ONAP) during the CVC session.  Expectation would be for participants on behalf of the project to attend the CVC meeting.  Use February 7 as a target for this update session.
  • Need to develop a strategy for how the EUAG will engage with the Anuket Assured Programs.  Is the AAP on their road map or plan for 2022.  Need the community members (especially CSPs) to start requiring the badges as part of their processes, can the EUAG help develop a strategy to support that goal.
  • Who is the AAP champion inside the EUAG?
  • Can we ask Beth Cohen to help with this goal within EUAG?
• Set and communicate Anuket Assured ambitions/goals for 2022 badges.
  • Why: Clarify ambitions which should make it easier for CSPs and vendors to allocate resources to support the effort. Avoid a wait and see situation.
  • Set goals for getting badges issues (i.e. 1 badge by end of Q1, 2 by end of Q2, etc.). Approach similar to a sales quota?
  • Understand the upcoming road map from the projects (i.e. what comes with the next releases, etc.).  The monthly project updates could help with this as well.
• Plan to revisit the above items in next week's meeting as well, to continue the action items, etc.
