Input from the 01/2016 Steering Committee Meeting:

Comment:
strikethrough means topic dropped, added to Backlog, work in progress or done (see TOC)

The What…

OSLC vision:

  • cover technical as well as organizational topics
  • define the scope of OSLC e.g.
    • SW development environments
    • Engineering environments
    • other ?
  • address the question:
    • “what is the next big thing in OSLC”
  • define how to collaborate with …
    • other members of the MS
    • with other MSs of OASIS
    • with other organizations
  • define the position of OSLC in the scope of IoT
  • be crisp and clear (for different types of audiences: top management, active members, practitioners, …)

OSLC mission:

  • What are we trying to solve or make better, and where do we want or need to get to in the next 2-5 years?
  • This is needed to orient ourselves and our initiatives/activities.

The When…

  • should start right away.
  • A progress timeline should be set. Additional factors to consider:
  • Can go public with an initial work-in-progress type announcement aligned with the annual OSLC community update (sometime between May - July… tbd). Invite the community for input at that time.
  • Other possible events for announcement:
    • final CRYSTAL event (early-mid June)
    • Incose event (June/July)
    • OSLC Webcast (June/July)
    • other ?
  • Need to provide guidance to Communications WG as we make progress so that they can plan for 2016 activities to support the work-in-progress vision and mission.
  • Finalization in Q3

The How and Where..

  • a core team should work on a draft (to be efficient, the core team should have up to 4 members)
  • other StC members and invited participants can provide feedback at any time
  • at a later stage (tbd) the whole community should be invited to provide feedback
  • a working environment (similar to the OSLC user group environment) shall be installed on opens-services.net with access restrictions to core team, OSLC StC, and some invited contributors; at the later stage, this should be opened up to the whole community. (details of the working environment tbd with Ginny[webmaster]).

Questions:

  • how to call the activity?
    • OSLC vision
    • OSLC vision/mission
    • the future of OSLC
  • who should/wants to be on the core team?
    • volunteers from the meeting: Bola, Andreas, John, Rainer
    • final definition of the team pending
