Linaro Enterprise Group Steering Committee

The Linaro Enterprise Group (LEG) was established in November 2012 as the first segment focused group within Linaro. The group was established to accelerate Linux ARM server ecosystem development and it extended the list of Linaro members beyond ARM silicon vendors to Server OEM’s and commercial Linux providers.

LEG leverages and extends Linaro’s existing shared engineering, legal and open source collaboration structures. This joint collaboration focuses on identifying and addressing gaps/optimizations in the ARM Linux server software ecosystem, enabling SoC support upstream to meet LEG requirements, agreeing LEG requirements for SoC software standardization and upstreaming all relevant output.

The LEG steering committee defines the high level tasks – be it heavy lifting “mighty” projects or quick “low hanging fruit” optimizations – and the corresponding priorities and timelines as “cards”. The technical leaders in the engineering team then analyze each card and break it into multiple smaller and more detailed tasks, each one with a clear requirement and acceptance constrains for completion. Once the engineers are assigned, work enters the development phase. Each card is fully visible to Linaro members in JIRA.

About LEG

When Linaro was established, the Linaro Technical Steering Committee (Linaro TSC) was responsible for both Linaro's technical roadmap and for operational oversight. As Linaro grew, the TSC devolved low level operation responsibility to the Operational Steering Committee (OPSCOM). Following discussions at the July 2014 Members' Meeting in Paris and later at LCU14, it was decided to formally split technical and operational responsibility between the TSC and a new committee, the Operational Steering Committee (OSC).  

In 2012 Linaro formed its first group, the Linaro Enterprise Group (LEG). Since then three more groups (Networking: LNG, Home: LHG and Mobile:LMG) have been formed. These groups focus on a particular market or technology. They are independent, hosted groups that both rely on and contribute to Linaro's core engineering and product teams.
