Hi Everyone,
as we presented at the OpenADx Workshop #4 in Leinfelden-Echterdingen, we would like to become an Eclipse Working Group.
Why do we want to become an Eclipse Working Group?
The Eclipse Foundation provides a Legal Framework for Discussion and Collaboration:
- to prevent Anti-Trust issues
- a Legal Entity for common work, e.g., hosting/imprint of Website, domain ownership
- a member neutral promotion organization
- a funding body for common funded projects
- a marketplace for idea sharing and solution provisioning
- Application of Eclipse Foundation mechanisms like the open standardization process
Our Ideas we have therefore
- Neutral Community Manager, organizing and fostering the community
- Neutral Web Portal for AD solutions (including but not exclusively those provided by working group)
- Commonly funded development projects
- Commonly funded standardization projects
- Tradeoff: Openness for collaboration vs. dependable planning and achievements in work packages
We think about two phases for setting up the working group:
- Open Charter
- Preparation of Working Group Collaboration and Charter
- Initiation of First Work Package(s)
- Process creation
- Work Package proposals
- Working Group Funding
- Steering Committee and Decision Making
- Final Charter for Working Group Work
- Established Work Packages
- Defined Processes
- Steering Committee
- Funding
I ask you to support us in defining both phases!
(I am currently in clarifications with the Eclipse Foundation, what will be the prerequisites for participating in Phase 1, so I will keep you posted!)
Please give me feedback, if you will join Phase 1!
Thank you for your answer!
Best,
Andy
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
