Action Item Review

  • Hackfest planning

  •  

    • East Coast, week of April 24th (venue/city pending)

    • Beijing, June TBD

    • If you have venue space, please contact Todd Benzies tbenzies@linuxfoundation.org

  • WG Charters

  •  

    • Requirements WG (Oleg)

    •  

      • Draft

      • Requirements WG meeting on March 6th to finalize, the to TSC on March 9th to approve

      • Brian B:  re: disbanding note… see the need for this WG to be ongoing, there will always be new use cases worth considering, new releases worth mapping to those use cases.

      • CF:  re: collaboration -- need a way to engage Requirements WG with some industry-specific WGs, like Healthcare.

      • DM:  Near outset of Hyperledger, there was some reluctance from a few to share info within this WG as it was seen as valuable IP within some companies, we should work to continue to move the needle on this perception.

      • Vipin:  There has been movement in this direction.  Suggest also adding to the use cases some actual implementations to showcase the round-trip phenomenon.

  • slack-archive repo

  •  

    • No objections to archiving the Slack.  Ry to drive the process.

  • Internship Program

  •  

    • The subgroup met on February 28th and recommends the following 6 mentors/proposals

    •  

      • Deploy Fabric on Kubernetes Using Cello, Feihu Jiang, Huawei

      • Contract-based Business Process Execution / Hyperledger as a business process execution engine, László Gönczy, Budapest University of Technology and Economics

      • Anonymous Transactions in Iroha, Makoto Takemiya and Bogdan Vaneev, Soramitsu

      • Preserving Privacy with Sawtooth Lake, Dan Middleton, Intel

      • Design and Implement Blockchain Clustering Platform for Hyperledger, Baohua Yang and Haitao Yue, IBM China

      • Publish, Document, and Maintain a Distribution Agnostic Build Script, Mark Wagner, Red Hat

    • No objections -- ok to move forward with these 6.

  • Request to exit Incubation status for Hyperledger Fabric (here)

  •  

    • Note:  this isn’t about getting to 1.0, this is about maturity of “project,” not “product.“  That said, getting ready to cut an alpha this month.

    • Q:  What is the scope of Fabric?  Does it include chaintool or Node-SDK, for example?

    •  

      • CF:  From an alignment perspective, all Fabric-** are aligned in getting to 1.0.

    • Q:  What is ongoing role for IBM?  If IBM left would Fabric continue?

    •  

      • CF:  Year 1 goal was to get IBM under 50% of contributors (55% currently).  Today, positive sign of seeing more sustained contributors (non-IBM). Ideally need to get down long-term number below 30% and get others more involved in Fabric.  In addition, of the IBM contributions, they come from multiple teams within IBM (not just one silo).

    • VOTE:  Unanimously approved.

  • GSL Discussion (Tamas Blummer)

  •
