Minutes

• Which proposals might achieve critical mass of members/resourcing
• Jonathan looking to clarify how proposals can be consolidated.
• Does staging sequentially enable a larger number of engineers focused on specific part of the proposal rather than separately in parallel.
• Discussion on the number of engineers required for each sequential step. Too many cooks to enable standards progression.
• Standards may need to be elements of being in parallel to develop the standard alongside investigation of attributes of the goal.
• Aim to develop a use-case but not a single goal - PoC. Possible VPP or OVS use-cases.
• Agreement to utilising the sequential approach and develop a schedule/story
• Initial approach to begin with software model until hardware becomes available.
• Intro to LEDGE - OpenEmbedded based reference platform utilising Fedora IoT.
• Linaro has extensive CI resources for testing
• Invited attendees to volunteer to take the next step in firmware development
• Review of updates for lifecycle (bring up, update,shutdown operations), security (ensure non-malicious activities and can support security application functions)
• Security should be a key component throughout the whole development, not an afterthought to be revisited later.
• Storage update - to expand the usecase and have a development system available asap.
• Futurewei to have an engineering resource available in September
• Network update to have a VPP usecase - distributed network functions
• 5G Placeholder currently no input but leave it there for possible NXP additions.
• Timeline reviewed
• NXP very interested in supporting the SmartNIC work and providing platforms for testing
• Futurewei provide positive response also
• Feedback suggests this is not a 'must have' but 'would like to have' project
• Huawei would like instructions on how to build an on-premise version of the CI environment and development environment
