Re: [iot-wg] Draft of Eclipse IoT Top-level Charter

Marco,

 

Thanks for the feedback. I wonder if we have already captured the spirit of what you are suggesting in the Scope section, bullet #1:

 

‘Implementation of standards and protocols applicable to IoT communications due to their nature (bandwidth efficiency, security, ...) This will include investigation and research related to future IoT standards and protocols.’

 

This statement would seem to include the protocols you listed?  Thoughts?

 

Ian

Hi Ian.

 

I like the charter too. 

 

I would like to propose to expand the scope of the first mission bullet as the following.

 

• Standards and Protocols implementations that can easily be consumed by end solution developers as well as framework developers. Protocols for remote communication as well as popular fields protocols in certain verticals are the focus.

 

I believe there is an opportunity for Eclipse to act as a consolidator for IP-clean implementations for popular industry protocols.

ModBUS, CanBUS, Profibus, Bluetooth 4, OPC,  … just to mention very few.

This will an effective way of addressing the M2M fragmentation.

 

Regards.

-Marco

All,

 

As discussed in our recent IoT Working Group meeting we are proposing to create an Eclipse top-level project for our IoT community. This is reflective of the success we have had to date creating a vibrant and growing IoT community.

 

The process to create a top-level project is for the community to first agree to a draft charter and then the Eclipse board of director will approve the creation of the top-level project.  A draft of the top-level charter has been created and now available for review https://wiki.eclipse.org/IoT/M2MIWG/TLP_Charter_Draft  Please provide your feedback before June 12.

 

We will also need to select leaders of the top-level Project Management Committee (PMC). Kai Kreuzer and Jens Reimann have both volunteered to act as co-leaders for the PMC. If anyone else would like to be nominated please let me know.

 

Finally, each of the existing Eclipse IoT projects will be asked to vote on their development list to move their project to the new Eclipse IoT top-level project.

 

This is a great step forward for our IoT community.

 

Regards,

Ian
