Hi Everyone!
We seem to have a bit more mass in the Power Management community so
that we can discuss the goals, roles, and responsibilities for this
community and it's contributors. We still don't have the community
grants posted yet, so we cannot actually vote on anything, but it
would be good to get some discussion out of the way.
First, the roles and responsibilities. It has been suggested to
follow or mirror the roles the Performance Community has outlined at:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/performance/roles/
It is not obvious if this is also presented in other communities,
but this is the common understanding of the roles and grants within
OpenSolaris as defined by the constitution. I see no reason that we
connot either specify this community will follow the same roles and
grants outlined by the Performance community, or we can litteraly copy
what is there and make it our own.
The second item is the goals of the community. Other than enhancing
the power management experience in OpenSolaris, I don't have a quick
answer. My personal goal is to evangelize this community, and there
will be evolving specific project goals, but maybe it is sufficient
for now to have this as a goal.
Anyone have any thoughts they would like to share?
