Agenda

Please review it, and if you have any questions, please contact your company's legal counsel. Members of the LF may contact Andrew Updegrove at the firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, which provides legal counsel to the LF.

Minutes

Topic 1

  • LFX

    • Individual dashboard new features not implemented yet. ETA is sometime in Q3. Changes are mostly around was of use. Account creation will be changed to encourage users to provide employer information that will make contribution attribution more accurate.

    • Organization dashboard has some changes.

    • Project structure in PCC is being worked on to make sure the right level of projects/sub-projects is exposed in insights.

    • We should start tracking a backlog of our issues.

  • Post Quantum Crypto

    • ONAP is evaluating the IBM open source scanning tool

  • Duranta Candidate announcement - Material

    • Question raised about future development of Duranta code and whether the new project will be the main repository for development moving forward (I.e. no forking). Response from @Irfan Ghauri (EURECOM/OpenAirInterface) - The intent is to only develop in one repository after the move, not maintain a fork.

    • Question raised about the need for non-OSI license - @Ranny Haiby explained that due to heavily patented technology in the CU/DU domain, there is a need for a license that explicitly states that the open source license does not include a license to use patented technology and such license should be obtained separately by the end user. It was further explained that the current LFN charter does not allow non- OSI licenses, therefore a charter amendment and a board vote is required
