It was suggested that there is some more feedback needed from the Community around the release so that the TSC can come to a formal agreement
Sukhdev Kapur It is a higher priority to developing the release plan. However, the person that has volunteered is familiar with the code and could help develop the release plan further.
It was asked how long the term should be?
Casey indicated that it is typically 1 year in other LF communities
Does it make sense to have a Release Manager per release?
There were some comments suggesting that it would be nice to have some continuity.
It could be nice to have a Release Management Team.
We can certainly add that language to the role
That could be a long term goal for sure

Vicky will be representing the project to the MAC
Juniper is seeking a new marketing representative but this may also be a great opportunity for a community member organization to take a leadership role in driving Tungsten Fabric marketing and awareness across the LF.
Participation in Cross-Community Collaboration
Need more bodies to support ongoing efforts to collaborate with ONAP, DPDK and others.
Great opportunity for community member organizations to lead the charge and take leadership roles.
