Agenda

• We will start by mentioning the project's Antitrust Policy, which you can find linked from the LF and project websites. The policy is important where multiple companies, including potential industry competitors, are participating in meetings. Please review and if you have any questions, please contact your company legal counsel. Members of the LF may contact Andrew Updegrove at the firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, which provides legal counsel to the LF.

Topic 1

• Comments

LFX

• LFX insights

  • LFX Insight data is pulled once a day.

  • Data is pulled independently from each source (Gerrit, Github)

  • A contribution is defined as : see documentation Core Concepts | Linux Foundation Documentation

  Feedback

  • Data from GitHub - nephio-project/porch was missing: Porch was not associated to Nephio in LFX (fixed).

    • Cause of incomplete data needs further investigation.

  • To determine eligible voters a list of top 10 (example to reach quorum) contributors over a specific timeframe would be helpful

  • Company association: who of company x is contributing where.

    • This is a common feature request. Issue is that LFX Insights are publicly available and history of potentially changing company affiliation is not allowed to be shared. Needs further investigation if this could be retrieved over Project Control Center.

    • Connection between LFX Insights and LFX Personal Profile (to set company affiliation) will be implemented.

  • Grouping of data sources for statistics

    • a possibility to remove archived project repos from statistics

    • display status of projects/repos: project life cycle stages (sandbox, incubation, graduated, archived): data available, a matter of displaying it in the dashboard

    • sub-project consisting of multiple repos: would be rather static association of repos to a “sub-project” (repos may be added or archived over time)

      • in theory possible with LFX insights

    • flexible selection of repos for statistics: some repos are not relevant for statistics and it would be great to uncheck them from statistics calculation

      • information is available in the data-lake. There is a plan to give projects access to the data-lake to compile own statistics

  • Meaning of “no data to display” in LFX Insight Contributors dashboard: is it that data is not available/source not connected or no contribution happened?

    • means that for the selected time frame no contributions happened

      • could be renamed to “no contributions in selected time frame” to make it more clear
