Following up from today’s TSC Meeting on the TSC Composition discussion.
Section 2 of the ONAP Technical Charter reads as follows:
b. TSC Voting Members
i. “Startup Period”: From date of creation of the ONAP Project a Series
of LF Projects, LLC (“Project Launch”) until June 30, 2018 (such period the
“Startup Period”), the TSC voting members will consist of one appointee from
each organization listed as having TSC appointees on ONAP.org. All TSC voting
members will be listed on ONAP.org.
ii. “Steady State”: After the Startup Period, the size, makeup and
procedure for determining voting members of the TSC will be as determined by
the TSC and documented on the ONAP web site.
A couple things of note here directly relevant to this morning’s discussion:
- First at the TSC’s request the original “Steady State” cutover to a
meritocratic based TSC was previously changed from the end of this month to
June 30 to avoid disrupting the Beijing release. Changing this again would
require amending the ONAP Technical Charter.
- Second, limitations were established to maintain the TSC membership at its
current level until the “Steady State” structure and elections. Opening this up
to all include TSC membership from any LFN Platinum member that is not already
represented on the ONAP TSC in advance of the “Steady State” elections will
require an amendment to the ONAP Technical Charter. My personal recommendation
is to keep the status quo on this item.
- Finally although we had 19 Platinum Member reps appointed to the TSC, there
were only 18 TSC members ever listed on the web page
<https://www.onap.org/about/tsc> - our requests to the remaining Platinum
member for a pic/bio info from were never answered and therefore nothing was
ever posted. (Also there has been little to no participation since the 1st or
2nd meeting for what it is worth.)
So in summary, the current size of the TSC based upon the ONAP Technical
Charter (effective Jan. 1st) is 18 members and will remain so until the TSC
sets the Steady State structure by June 30th, or amends the Technical Charter
to do something different.
Having provided that background my understanding of today’s proposal is for the
TSC to stay “as-is” until after Casablanca.
THIS IS TO ENSURE CLARIFICATION OF THE INTENT AND LANGUAGE, NOT THE VOTE
ITSELF. The formal vote will occur on the onap-tsc-vote alias, not here. A
plus-one here on this issue is null and void.
The TSC approves modifying the “Steady State” definition in Section 2,b,i of
the ONAP Technical Charter to be _DATE_.
I am looking to the TSC to verify the above sentence reflects the correct vote
on this issue and to provide _DATE_.
Thanks!
