Hello OpenDaylight developers and TSC members: I wanted to provide some clarity on the activities and timeframe we have to gather during ONS.
The developer event during ONS week will be from 8:00am to 6:00pm on Monday, March 26th, and 8:00am to 12:00 noon on Tuesday, March 27th. From requests we have received we had also been investigating the possibility to extend the event into the proceeding Sunday, but we've determined that such an extension is not going to be possible. That said, we still have the Monday/Tuesday time for formal presentations, as well as break out rooms and a developer lounge for continued meetings, discussions, and hacking at ONS during the rest of the week. As we've mentioned before, we would like to take advantage of the fact that the communities from the different projects will be in the same place at the same time. As such, we encourage you to propose sessions that can further cross-collaboration among the LFN projects. We also recognize that there are plenty of project-specific topics that need to be discussed. Please also propose those sessions for this event. With the LFN formally announced today, we are working to get the LFN wiki site up and running as quickly as possible. One of the first uses for this site will be the location for submitting your proposed talks and presentations for the developer event at ONS. We apologize that it is not up quite yet but it will be up within the next 2 or 3 days. Once the site is up, Ray Paik (cc-ed) will send out an email to all communities on where to find it along with a call-for-presentations for you to post your discussion and presentation topics. Between February 9th and February 15th, we will convene the TAC representatives from the LFN projects to review the submissions and to form an outline/framework for the developer event, giving time for cross-project discussions, project-specific sessions, and a TAC meeting. From there, we will work with each project TSC to prioritize project-specific sessions during the event. For OpenDaylight in particular, I know we've been trying to fit the Florine DDF on that proceeding Sunday. However, this won't be possible. Given this, we have a number of alternatives: 1) We could hold the DDF during the Monday and Tuesday of ONS. I know that we had said we wanted this time for cross-project discussions, but if the ODL TSC prefers to hold the DDF at this time, we will find a room for it and ODL can stay focused there. 2) We can move the Florine DDF to a different time and place, perhaps holding it in a similar fashion to the Oxygen DDF at a member company facility in the bay area. 3) Hold a virtual DDF similar to our other virtual developer events we've done in the past. My apologies for the inconvenience this causes. If you have additional questions, please reach out to me. Best regards, Phil. -- Phil Robb VP Operations - Networking & Orchestration, The Linux Foundation (O) 970-229-5949 (M) 970-420-4292 Skype: Phil.Robb
