Discussion items

Proposed converged workflow OR keep separate workflows?
- CNTT been using github; OPNFV using gerrit
- gitlab/gitlab CI is the LF strategic direction
  - Timeframe? POC running in 2020 - decision on wide scale adoption in 2021
    - OPNFV projects StorPerf and Kuberef in proof of concept
- gitlab has more tools - issue trackers, wiki... - is it gitlab for CI/repos OR more of the tool chain?
  - Jira and Confluence strongly integrated == more value
  - defer supporting tools and just focus on CI/repo management
- Would it help RI work if the tool chain were the same?
  - RTD workflow the same
  - CI integration is the challenging area
    - OPNFV has sep group managing the CI process
    - gitlab enables each project to manage their own CI tools
  - Merge mindset and issue tracking unification would be helped by common tools
  - How are dependencies tracked from specs to RI code changes?
    - not tracked today
- Proposal: Continue using current tools and defer any migration to gitlab
  - Elbrus release stay on github - then converge on a common tool chain
  - Is there a short term convergence step?
    - Yes, but that would be a multi-step move (more pain)
  - Directional agreement on converged toolchain - question is on priority
Define PROPOSAL for the day-in-the-life of the future TSC and discuss the needed operational support (inputs/outputs)
- Develop a straw-proposal for the TSC workflow and refine as we go
- OPNFV TSC workflow is largely defined by the charter
- Communicate back to Org/Gov our dependencies on the operational procedures
  - Who of TSC, how long are secondary decisions
  - OPNFV has the charter and operational procedures, where is the CNTT similar docs?
- Schedule a separate meeting and propose the TSC operations
  - Start with wiki doc: https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/x/lBBoAg

sunku ranganath Presented some materials on organizing around areas of interest
- Operationally - have small working groups that bring together the architects and developer to identify gaps and create plans to address the issues
- Good taxonomy developed as a work in progress: MeldOperations-Domains.pptx
