Meeting Notes

Note:  On Feb 1, 2023, the scope of the meeting was expanded to include the SEDIMENT project, in addition to ProD3.

Mar 1, 2023

Note:  project formation has been completed (mostly) for ProD3 and SEDIMENT, so this will be the last of this meeting series.  

Attendees: David McBride, Diane Duffy, Latha Kant, Rajesh Krishnan, Jon Kirsch

Agenda:

  • Debrief on announcement
  • GH issues (ProD3)
  • License scan results (SEDIMENT)
  • Next code contributions from ProD3?
  • Next steps

Notes:

  • Rajesh - positive feedback from DARPA on announcement

  • Discussion with Jon and Rajesh about completing setup of GH for ProD3 (Rajesh has already completed for SEDIMENT).
  • Meet and greet with Gaming Umbrella (ProD3)? David to investigate.
  • SEDIMENT team to investigate whether they can engage with the 5GSBP

    • David will re-introduce SEDIMENT team to Louis
  • Latha will look into the timing for future Peraton contributions to ProD3 (recall that Steve said that these would roll out over approximately a 2 year period)

Feb 1, 2023

Attendees: David McBride, Diane Duffy, Steve Beitzel, Latha Kant, Jill Lovato , Jon Kirsch 

Agenda:

  • Charter and Contribution Agreement
  • Press Release
    • Ready for review by supporting orgs?
    • Since we have one announcement, will we have the same supporting orgs for both ProD3 and Sediment?
    • NIWC, DARPA approval
    • Other org approval
    • Format for review
    • Should SEDIMENT be capitalized.  Is it an acronym?
    • What is DARPA I20? 
  • Code contribution status
    • GitHub setup

Notes:

  • Charter / Contribution agreement

    • Diane couldn't find the edit that Scott referred to
    • Charter and contribution agreement settled
    • Need to determine date for public access to projects.  Diane says that it depends on DARPA approval.
  • Press release
    • Need to work in MS Word (Diane)
    • Internal Peraton review first.  Then goes to marketing. Then to supporting orgs.
    • Need to complete press release, including internal review at Peraton, before submission to NIWC/DARPA Public Affairs
    • Steve:  may or may not have a common set of supporting orgs.  
      • If separate, we need to edit the press release to indicate two separate lists.
    • SEDIMENT should be capitalized (Yes SEDIMENT is an acronym and must be stylized in all caps. SEcure DIstributed IoT ManagemENT (SEDIMENT) for OPS-5G is the project name expanded)
    • ProD3 is an acronym for Programmable Distributed Defense in Depth for 5G services 
    • I2O = Information Innovation Office
  • Code contribution
    • Code is ready for contribution
    • Note:  SEDIMENT may ultimately have 3 or more subprojects.  Leading with remote attestation.
    • Needs to be reviewed and approved for release by DARPA
    • Peraton expects code contribution to be completed prior to PI meeting
    • SPDX compliant licensing header will be in place for every contributed file prior to public release
  • Request to add another meeting next week.  David will send invitation.

Nov 2, 2022

Attendees: David McBride, Diane Duffy, Jon Kirsch,Scott Nicholas, Steve Beitzel, Latha Kant

Notes:

  • From Diane’s email:

    • Does inception of the project occur immediately upon adoption of the TC or can it be at a later time? 
      • Scott:  TC merely enables development
    • We don't currently have a github for ProD3. Should we ideally create and populate a ProD3 github before project inception?
      • Scott: "TBD" is ok for URL entry for contribution agreement
      • Scott: Set up the GitHub org with one word name:  TheLinuxFoundation
    • Scott:  no defined procedure for Committer resignation is necessary.  May be defined by the TSC as long as they don't make it difficult to resign.
    • Scott: copyright edits (Diane) are ok
  • Next meeting Nov 16
