Jens,
I do believe one of the benefits of a top-level project will be that issues like IP rights for standards will be more visible within the community. It is an important topic so I am glad you brought it up.

Subject: Re: [iot-wg] Draft of Eclipse IoT Top-level Charter
Hello Ian,
I just wanted to bring it up, because I think most people just stumble over that fact ( like we did ;-) ).
I agree that the top level project charter is most likely the wrong place for raising that kind of awareness.
So just forget about that idea.

Jens,
I think we all agree in principle that Eclipse IoT top-level project should be able to host implementation of relevant IoT standards. I am not sure if we need to add more details in the charter. I guess we could add a clarification that the protocol needs to be licensed in such a manner to allow an open source implementation? However, that seems like stating the obvious?
Ian
Hi,
I think the charter is good!
That is what we are hoping for the Eclipse SCADA project. Actually we already have IEC60870 and OPC UA in the pipeline, but we are still waiting until the Eclipse Foundation Legal team has cleared the remaining IP questions with IEC.
So I am not sure if we should reflect this topic (IP problematics with protocols) somewhere in the charter? Or maybe this is a topic for another area?

Hi Ian.
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.
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.
