Release

• A discussion ensued around the R2003 build for release.
  • Leveraging upstream DPDK for build R2003 is still using Juniper DPDK.
  • Edward Ting asked if R2003 build with Upstream DPDK has been tested?
    • Do not have enough cycles to test.
    • Prabhjot Singh Sethi with update the build to use the contail dpdk build for the 2003 release and then in the future we will use upstream dpdk build.

  • Casey will send an email to the TSC mailing list to request the members vote after the 2003 build has been updated.
• Casey asks if we want to call this release 5.2 for this gap release until upstream DPDK is implemented
• Casey asks if we can collaborate on the delta of features from 5.1 to this release for marketing purposes.
  • Sukhdev Kapur provided the Contrail 2003.1 Release Notes that may be helpful.
    • We need to capture the features and delta in our release plan and notes.
  • Darien Hirotsu & Casey Cain to work with Brandon Wick will help prepare a draft and insights for the marketing of the R2003 gap release.

Project Structure

• Talked about the need for the community to help identify the different "sub-projects" to clearly define the project structure.
• Prabhjot Singh Sethi we need to enforce that any inbound code or feature must be documented in the wiki and in the community Jira to be an approved project.
  • There are concerns about inbound code being documented properly and meets IPR.
  • The TSC will be the gating approval for new projects and inbound code review.
• Sanju noted that there is no information in our JIRA.
  • Jared noted that Juniper is working on migrating work to the community Jira.
  • Sanju believes that he can build a story for the release for the 2003 release from Juniper Jira tickets
  • PSS believes that we may be chasing the release too much and need to focus on future releases. 

Action items
