Goals

• Select POC/Lead
• Discuss discuss charter development
• Discuss Organizational Structure options
• Determine coming week actions items and assignments

Context

Legal and organizational requirements are inter-related and yet distinct.

Legal requirements:

• Updated charter
  • Name
  • Scope/Mission Statement
  • "Interim" TSC(?)
  • Our charter calls out to other "non-legal" documents for the remainder of governance/ops
• Updated partnership agreement w/ GSMA
• A single vote by the existing OPNFV TSC to agree to the updated charter

To make ourselves successful 

• Roles and responsibilities of TSC members
• Expectations/eligibility requirements of TSC
• Election processes
• Governance at a conceptual and strategic level (e.g., GB, MAC, SPC, TAC touchpoints)
  • Short and long term 
  • Who are we existentially?
  • What is our value?
• Workstream and project structure – overall org structure and goals
  • This is likely the most defining and important – but isn't a legal matter
• Other activities that are under the purview of the Operations Task Force (tooling, releases, processes)
• Best practices
• Operational Guidelines Document Update (https://www.opnfv.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2018/01/OPNFV-TSC-Procedures-Document-12-5-2017.pdf)
  • We also have procedures defined in a number of wiki pages, including project lifecycle, election procedures, etc. We may want to look at streamlining this documentation during this process.
