Minutes

• Issue 100 (TD)
  • TD: Will suspend this and talk to the Product Council
  • SK: Does this follow the contribution guide? Can we see it?
  • PSB: There is no useful contributors' guide. The existing guide is for enhancements, not for new products
  • SO: Showed the Contribution Acceptance Guide.
  • PSB: Contributors' guide is not adequate, needs to be improved for large projects.
  • SO: TD should submit contribution acceptance form, then SO will notify the various groups who need to respond.
  • SO: Please send process flows that exist so they can be discussed in the Community Council
  • SO: Highlight the product goals.
  • TD: A lot of detail missing from the workstream definitions. TD has already promised to expand those for his workstreams. This should be done generally.
• DA Draft Charter (MR)
  • PSB:some overlap with reference architecture and DA charter.
  • PSB:What is the right level for this document? Some is high level and some is quite detailed.
  • PSB:Should we remove the HTTP stipulation? Belongs in the interface definitions.
  • MdB:fair point, but the interface was developed with these standards in mind...

Actions:

• JF: suggest improvements to the contribution acceptance scheme document. Discuss at next DA
• MR: talk to Paul Makin about ensuring that all workstreams have definitions of their objectives.
• No meeting next week
