Agenda

Release schedule for 5.1
Patches from Netronome
- If we have an interface in TF where a vendor can implement some functionality in form of a binary (which source code will not be distributed in any shape or form) that dynamically links in kernel space, would that be ok from legal perspective?
- And if so, is there any restriction in the license that this binary (that will be loaded in Linux kernel space) will have?
- Ultimately, it seems like whichever party is going to have an issue will have to do the legal research is this part Juniper and/or whoever distributes a commercial version of TF?
- Any other concerns? Most concerns were discussed in last week's SmartNIC meeting on 2018-10-18
TSC/TC Elections: voting now for two members -vs- voting now for all TSC
Tools for Release Notes - Ed Ting

5.1 release review
- Dev complete is now November 15th
- Release targeted for December 15th
Discussion of smartNIC offload, licensing and code changes
- There might be some legal issues with whoever distributes the binary but it seems it doesn't affect TF community
- About CI we need a 3rd party CI that will require each vendor's hardware (which is fine and expected) but there is some discussion on how this will integrate with the rest of the CI
