Hi Harshad, Although I agree with you that the Benevolent Dictator model works very well, it requires this Benevolent Dictator to be extremely knowledgeable with the code and architecture, and at the same time doing this job full time (in some cases more than just full time). We had this discussion in the 1st OpenContrail summit and it doesn’t seem like we have someone like that.
On the other hand, the designs (blueprints) are done by individuals or small teams of individuals. The ARB or TSC will be only reviewing those blueprints. Again, this has been discussed in the TSC WG calls which are public and open. At the 2nd Summit last week we agreed to move forward this way for the first open OpenContrail release and then we will adjust based on the learning.

You really need a benevolent dictator. Regards -Harshad On Sep 24, 2017, at 7:34 PM, Gasparakis, Joseph <joseph.gaspara...@intel.com<mailto:joseph.gaspara...@intel.com>> wrote: Thank you all.

In the last TSC WG call we came up with a few proposals: 1. Allow someone in Juniper have veto powers to reject a proposed change 2. Create an Architectural Review Board (ARB as defined in https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zNIVEOY3XsnUdYKy1ddwgjJoOV-Iwx1pHU_8ViYlTFs/edit) that will be reviewing in order to accept or reject architectural proposals, and Juniper to have the majority of the seats so they can control by the power of majority what goes in and what not. If we decide for 2, we can choose at a later stage if we will have an ARB ongoing or only for this first release. Please vote one of the two options and for the sake of openness and transparency REPLY ALL so your vote is visible to the whole list. If I receive any private votes I will be forwarding them to this list. Also please vote by end of day today as we would like to have this decision made during the summit tomorrow.
