Minutes
5G adoption white paper proposal - @Atul Purohit
LFN Governing Board (GB) asked about gaining insight into 5G from the membership.
@Atul Purohit shared a proposal for producing a 5G whitepaper.
A request from @Arpit Joshipura for EUAG to work with LFN Marketing & James Crawshaw to discuss 5G
3 key focus areas for introductory guides from LFN coming from the MAC
Cloud Native
Edge
5G
Intro Guide to 5G - just released https://www.lfnetworking.org/publications/2020/07/20/5g-networking-an-introduction/
a detailed EUAG white paper on 5G should be complementary to the intro guides
Feedback on proposal
@Ahmed El Sawaf Not covering relationship with TIP and Open Core?
Should bring a solid usecase into our white paper bringing in the opensource mindset
@Lei Huang A survey could be basis for challenges and use cases - Volunteering to produce survey
@Scott Blandford 5G covers a lot of area - is there a specific focal point or ways to limit the scope?
While LFN addresses a limited amount of 5G features, the white paper is not constrained to just LFN pieces
Proposals: Operation deployment perspective, Operator view of 5G
@Ryan Hallahan What is the objective? Lead LFN projects? Direct new project focus? What is the desired outcome?@jav
Plenty of open ended 5G challenges white papers/blogs out there, so little value in that.
@Javier Ger should take entire ecosystem into account - perhaps not a specific company name - but cover relationships
Similar to a request from @Heather Kirksey some time ago that covers how LFN touches the different aspects of the carrier space
Possible an edge use case may be appropriate
Possibly a set of white papers - a very broad 5G, then a followup based upon detailed survey data
EUAG requirements process from experience with ONAP - @Javier Ger and @Lei Huang
ONAP Requirements Subcommittee has asked for some template work to align input
Gap in the process exists
@Atul Purohit reminds folks that not all members of the EUAG are participants or even members of LFN not everyone sees what is going on behind the scenes.
for ONAP the Requirements Subc will be presenting the input to the ONAP TSC - potential exists for this model to be propagated to other LFN Projects
@Javier Ger the level of requirements detail from the EUAG is much higher level than the details needed in Jira ticket
We can compare our input for the Guilin release to compare to what format the ONAP Requirements Subc would like to see
Expand beyond ONAP focus
Discussions with @Arpit Joshipura on how to grow EUAG participation in other LFN Projects and gain participation of additional carriers.
@Ahmed El Sawaf Recruit operators that are in CNTT but not in EUAG
EUAG Chair election
@Atul Purohit moving on from Vodafone.
Election for a new Chair ends on the Jul 30, 2020 Ballots previously distributed.
