[onap-tsc] ONAP Project Lifecycle: recommended actions

Thu, 04 Jun 2020 15:14:12 -0700

 
TSC and PTLs,
 
Per the discussion in today's TSC meeting, we wanted to make everyone aware of the ONAP project lifecycle and encourage projects to consider their status and any changes.
 
The current lifecycle is depicted in this diagram:
 
 

The suggestion is that we use this lifecycle to place the ONAP project portfolio into three buckets:

 

- Mature projects: for projects with active release participation & solid artifacts; they should submit for a "maturity review"

- Inactive (Archived) projects: for projects where there is no longer any contributions, they should follow the termination review

- Other (Incubation) projects: for those projects that are still active but not ready for move to "mature" phase

 

For mature projects, the TSC encourages qualifying projects to submit for a maturity review.  They do this by filling out the template in the wiki (https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Project+Maturity+Review+Template) and send an email to the TSC list.  In order to accelerate reviews (and free up time on the TSC calls), we may want to form a working group to do a preliminary maturity review for the projects.  The group would submit their recommendations to the TSC who would then vote +1/0/-1 for promotion to the mature phase.

 

For the inactive projects, there is no guidance on who should initiate a termination review.  Because there may not be a PTL, perhaps the TSC could initiate a termination review for a project.  Again, we may want a working group to conduct the steps of the termination review.  This group should consist of people who are familiar with the project or at least interface with/depend upon the project.  This working group will need to walk through the steps of the termination review as outlined here: (scroll down)

 

All other projects need no action.

 

 

Please reply with any questions on the process.
