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
