Agenda

• Start the Recording

• 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.

  • PLEASE take the Survey if you attended - closes on the 17th

  • Feedback from the technical event

    • Strong interest by communities - often had 3 parallel tracks - perhaps a different platform for non-interactive presentations - focus technical events on interaction/brain-storming

    • Maybe a YouTube channel that can be used for more presentation based info

    • Developer advocacy videos - demo showcase, project lead interviews, live-coding sessions, interactive meetings/discussions

    • FD.io planning deep dive webinars

    • Would like all presentation recordings on the youtube as well

    • Each community should have it's own channel as not to flood the LFN level channel, making it difficult to navigate

    • 4-5 community members from each community should have YouTube keys

• EUAG Discussion and Planned Collaboration Session 

  • 2 presos at the Dev event

  • How can we ger vendors and operators together to better exchange information

  • Meeting on the 17th is on the TAC calendar - 1430 UTC Feb 17, 2021

  • @FREEMAN, BRIAN D  - eval of Solarwinds type of attack on supply chain

  • @Martin Jackson - Supply chain attacks is top of mind for enterprise - this was already FUD in the enterprise space. Should discuss it head on.

• Interaction with other communities @FREEMAN, BRIAN D

  • LFN needs clarity/documentation around where LFN's interaction is with other foundations (LF-Edge, LF-AI, etc)

  • Specific wiki page a logical step

  • @Heather Kirksey - although we've tried many of the organic cross- pollination conversations that would normally occur at an event just don't materialize during virtual events.

  • topic for a future meeting
