    3. they each have 5-7 merged commits, with non-trivial code (colindixon, 17:21:02)
    4. VOTE: Voted on "shall the TSC bless Martin Sunal, Abdelilah Essiar as committers on the SXP project?" Results are, +1: 7 (colindixon, 17:22:36)
    5. AGREED: Martin Sunal, Abdelilah Essiari are now committers on SXP (colindixon, 17:22:56)

  8. HoneyComb/BridgeDomain creation review (colindixon, 17:23:58)
    1. https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Project_Proposals:HoneyCombBridgeDomain (colindixon, 17:24:08)
    2. https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Project_Proposals:HoneyCombBridgeDomain#Project_overview slides are available for download here (colindixon, 17:24:53)
    3. https://lists.opendaylight.org/pipermail/project-proposals/2016-February/000401.html proposed on 2/11/2016 (colindixon, 17:25:19)
    4. this is largely a way to interact with the VPP dataplane in fd.io via the honeycomb local agent in fd.io (colindixon, 17:27:42)
    5. particularly to work on the bridge domain model/API provided by the honeycomb agent in fd.io (colindixon, 17:28:03)
    6. this project would then act as the orchestrator to manage multiple different honeycomb agents to provide virtual bridge domains across multiple VPP instances (colindixon, 17:29:10)
    7. phrobb_ notes that we'll have to do an IPR (colindixon, 17:33:20)
    8. colindixon asks if there are any trademark issues with names here, he suspects not and that it's all inside the LF, which probably helps (colindixon, 17:34:11)
    9. VOTE: Voted on "shall the TSC move the HoneyComb/BridgeDomain to incubation?" Results are, +1: 7 (colindixon, 17:35:24)
    10. AGREED: the HoneyComb/BridgeDomain is now an incubation project (colindixon, 17:35:33)
    11. VOTE: Voted on "shall the TSC allow the HoneyComb/BridgeDomain project to join the boron release at offset 1 despite this being 2 weeks late, technically?" Results are, +1: 6 (colindixon, 17:36:45)
    12. AGREED: the HoneyComb/BridgeDomain project will be able to join Boron at offset 1 (colindixon, 17:37:08)

  9. Infrastructure Utilities Project (colindixon, 17:37:30)
    1. https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Project_Proposals:Utilities (colindixon, 17:37:40)
    2. https://lists.opendaylight.org/pipermail/project-proposals/2016-March/000416.html proposed on 3/3/2016 (colindixon, 17:37:53)
    3. this is a project looking to provide utilities that the proposers who have found to be very useful (colindixon, 17:38:26)
    4. they will start with two utilities: counters and Seamless Async Calls Utility (colindixon, 17:39:10)
    5. https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Project_Proposals:Utilities#Description see here? (colindixon, 17:39:22)
    6. the counters stuff works with YANG and JMX to provide useful counters to expose to others and monitor them (colindixon, 17:40:30)
    7. a lot of work with rovarga has happened here (colindixon, 17:40:53)
    8. colindixon notes that personally this counter stuff looks cool (colindixon, 17:41:12)
    9. colindixon has two worries: (1) the scope is currently limited to just these two utilities, which seems likely not quite what they want, (2) in the past projects which exist solely to aggregate things for other projects have had trouble, e.g., toolkit and coretutorials (colindixon, 17:42:13)
    10. edwarnicke suggests to try to work in the normal development pattern, e.g., get involved in the archetypes (colindixon, 17:42:54)
    11. the response is that this is the scope for the boron release, and it could be adjust in later times, and colindixon thinks that's fine and we shouldn't block it because of that (colindixon, 17:46:10)
    12. phrobb_ asks if there's code that we need to do IPR on any incoming code (colindixon, 17:49:48)
    13. abhijitkumbhare asks if we should think about structuring this as a hierarchical project, e.g., infrautilities/counters, infrautilities/async, (colindixon, 17:50:42)
    14. abhijitkumbhare says maybe it would be group more things together (colindixon, 17:52:56)
    15. colindixon says he feels a bit like we have too many repos already (colindixon, 17:53:17)
    16. please note we *do* have mechanisms in our lifecycle for a hiearchy of projects (edwarnicke, 17:53:30)
    17. ChrisPriceAB notes we can fix that problem in the future and we don't have it yet (colindixon, 17:53:33)
    18. VOTE: Voted on "shall the TSC move The Infrastrucure Utilities Project to incubation?" Results are, +1: 7 (colindixon, 17:54:27)
    19. AGREED: The Infrastrucure Utilities Project is now an incubation project pending IPR (colindixon, 17:54:39)
    20. VOTE: Voted on "shall the TSC allow The Infrastrucure Utilities Project to join the Boron offset 0 assuming they quickly send your M1?" Results are, +1: 6 (colindixon, 17:55:53)
    21. AGREED: The Infrastrucure Utilities Project can join boron at offset 0 (colindixon, 17:56:05)
    22. LuisGomez has voted +1 every time so far for the record (colindixon, 17:56:41)

  10. remove inactive committers (colindixon, 17:57:39)
    1. our charter allows PTLs to forcibly remove inactive committers after an extended period of time, e.g., six months (colindixon, 17:58:16)
    2. https://www.opendaylight.org/tsc-charter < - "From the charter "A Committer who is disruptive, or has been inactive for an extended period (e.g., six or more months) may have his or her Committer status revoked by the project leads." (edwarnicke, 17:59:20)
    3. as long as projects make honest effort to contact inactive committers, the TSC feels this makes sense (colindixon, 17:59:25)
    4. as far a we're concerned projects can remove inactive committers, the TSC would like to be informed in these cases, and will handle disputes (colindixon, 18:02:28)
    5. AGREED: the TSC feels like this doesn't need a vote, PTLs can remove inactive committers at their discretion, but the TSC strongly encourages that people let the TSC know, and also notes the TSC can resolve any disputes of this (colindixon, 18:04:07)
    6. ACTION: colindixon to start a mail about best practices about keeping committer lists clean (colindixon, 18:04:49)

  11. cookies (colindixon, 18:04:59)
