Meeting summary

  1. Colin Dixon provides an update from the TSC (CaseyODL, 16:09:28)
    1. The biggest affect on users in the next release will be the update to Karaf 4. (CaseyODL, 16:10:57)
    2. We will move to Karaf 4 to meet our future security goals. (CaseyODL, 16:13:01)
    3. We will update our documentation so it is clear how this will affect feature installation (CaseyODL, 16:13:41)
    4. Learning to use Carbon sooner rather than later would be helpful to understand the new features. (CaseyODL, 16:14:42)
    5. Beau asked what security issues are being resolved. (CaseyODL, 16:15:10)
    6. Colin reported that there are no direct issues. It is more supporting newer dependencies that move though karaf. Preventing future issues. (CaseyODL, 16:16:03)
    7. In karaf 4 we will be able to dynamically load and unload features properly instead of just outright removing them. (CaseyODL, 16:17:55)
    8. The RSC for RESETCONF was finalized by IETF about a month ago. (CaseyODL, 16:18:53)
    9. We will be shipping with our original draft 2 of the RSC and the latest draft in Carbon. Draft 2 will eventually be removed. (CaseyODL, 16:19:51)
    10. Carbon will support better federation between OpenDaylight instances. (CaseyODL, 16:26:13)
    11. https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Weather#Restconf_Draft11_upgrade_and_code_clean-up <-- link to work on upgrade of Restconf from Draft 02 to Draft 11 (phrobb, 16:27:55)
    12. Another new unsupported feature in ODL Carbon will be the ability for OpenDaylight to provide Container Orchestration. (CaseyODL, 16:28:51)
    13. https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/COE:Main <-- Link to Container project (COE) (phrobb, 16:28:55)

    17. OpenDaylight has slowly been migrating to Blueprint to manage our features and separate system and user configurations to better support Upgrades in the future. This will also have the added benefit of having less bespoke code. (CaseyODL, 16:35:56)
    18. Colin announced that ODL has been struggling with the idea of changing our release schedule. We currently release every 7-8 months. (CaseyODL, 16:39:11)
    19. Colin asked if there would be a significant benefit to shipping on a fixed calendar schedule. (CaseyODL, 16:40:01)
    20. The AG seemed indifferent to the idea. Colin stated that it is likely the way that ODL will move due to it becoming the industry standard for other Open Source projects. Colin asked that if the AG has any feedback to let him know. (CaseyODL, 16:41:42)
