Jay and All, I want to clarify and be very clear about one point that you raised: “My questions seem to have been taken as an attack on the LCOO.”
Your questions and valid and good feedback for us as community. Nobody should feel like “an attack” when somebody else ask those questions. Now, I also encourage direct communication when email does not work. IRC could help and also attending the team meetings. LCOO is doing their best to follow the “Open Community” standards but you and everybody needs to understand that sometimes is hard for new Working Groups to ramp out quickly on those. So, let’s keep all the conversations. Let’s all keep having a nice and collaborating community. Have a nice weekend!

The team is working on plans to structure/define LCOO use cases. My question here is what makes the LCOO use cases different from, say, the Telco Operator working group's use cases? Or the Massively Distributed working group's use cases? Or the Enterprise working group's use cases? Is the difference that the LCOO's use cases are stories that are important for the LCOO member companies? > Use case requirements (while still work-in-progress) can span across multiple areas which might/might-not covered by existing Team/WG. Understood. Is the plan of the LCOO to identify use cases that are covered by other working groups, contribute resources to develop that use case, but have that existing working group handle the product management (spec/blueprint/communication/roadmap) stuff? > I'm sure LCOO will reach out to various projects for collaboration, stay tuned... My questions seem to have been taken as an attack on the LCOO. I was hoping to avoid that. I'm sincerely hoping to see the outreach to various projects and am eager to collaborate with developers and operators from the LCOO companies. I'm just confused what the relationship between the LCOO and the existing working groups is.
