There are 23 labs related to Fabric operations! Some of them are of course archived. We have 12 non-archived labs (so at least a little bit active).
Of these, it seems like Fabric Operations Console, HLF Operator, Fablo, Fabric Smart Client, Operations Smart Contract, and Minifabric serve very related objectives. Would it be possible to convince them to work together? Cello may also want to be a participant.
Comments:
- Yes, we should certainly try to encourage these groups to work together. My thought is we might need to segment this a bit more though to figure out where there are the best opportunities for engagement. Just because a lab is doing something related to Fabric doesn't mean they'll be interested in another lab related to Fabric. For instance, the hardware acceleration Xilinx is doing would be relevant for other performance related labs, like Tape or Performance SandBox, but it doesn't seem like there's necessarily much in common with other labs that have something to do with Fabric. Another example of segmenting is finding all of the labs interested in Fabric and Kubernetes and trying to bring them together.
