Continue any work on OSS project agnostic template workbook

  • Template for filling (new working document): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jR0oGQpwJTdThJAOtWP70GrdWSz7K-ol84j5BWX2h8g
  • Descriptions are added. Ready for review.
  • AI-Philipp: Review the sheets "Practices" and "Common themes" and provide feedback to Wendi.
  • Create a first small deliverable (report) out of the following artifacts:
    • Template
    • Common Theme & Practices
    • First check with Xen & Yocto
  • The first deliverable can serve as a documentation for others.
  • Paul Albertella discusses "definition of Quality" in OSEP-WG. It would be good to know the outcome.
    • New topic which came up recently.
    • Overall, need to make sure, we are not creating too much overlap. Close alignment needed with OSEP, to keep consistency.
    • AI-Philipp: Check with Paul where this is leading to.
    • Try to reuse the OSEP artifact. Also get it into the Glossary.

Financing (money and/or capacity) / Funding of the project

  • Some people showed interest in funding during the survey.
  • What could be done to get a funding.
  • Funding was our way of getting long term invest.
  • We start making progress with template, listing projects.
  • From an abstract proposal we concretely drafting practices.
  • Define checkpoint on regular intervals, if the interest in funding has grown.
  • What is a good critical mass? --> LF says typically 3-4 paying members.
  • Example:
    • Buildroot (https://buildroot.org/) did not have an LTS. Sponsorship program was started. Going to conference and cooperate with core maintainers.
    • The program helps to produce a service to existing customers to prepare a security service to customers.
    • Not many sponsors and money, but very practical and provides benefits to buildroot overall.
    • Important to search for tools in use for companies willing to pay for them. The tools are the commercial service offering.

AoB

  • ELISA workshop (Nov 18 to 20 in Munich) topic proposal open: https://forms.gle/PrvR4JAEbCFQTVPy9
    • One proposal: Status of Lighthouse-SIG by Simone
  • Check on status of OSS JP submissions during next meeting.
