Participation to these calls is restricted to members of the IWG, but the minutes are public.  
+
Participation to these calls is restricted to members of the IWG, but the minutes are public. We alternate between marketing-focused calls (upcoming events coordination, community outreach, etc.), and technical calls mostly targeting project leads, to synchronize cross-project activities.
  
 
The meetings are held via teleconference. The regular call-in numbers are shown below (if possible, please used caller paid numbers). There are a few local / toll-free dial in numbers, but you may want to setup a [https://wiki.eclipse.org/Asterisk#SIP SIP client] on your computer if possible.

* Kai and Jens have been proposed as PMC co-lead
+
== Agenda ==
* Kai: what would become of the IoT WG calls?
+
** WG is about marketing efforts, how to build a stack for the industry, ... so the WG would definitely still exist, and call schedule would remain the same
+
* Each project leader would be invited to be a member of the PMC

== Licensing for 3rd party protocols ==
+
== IoT Case Studies ==
  
* For now, projects should email license@eclipse.org when they plan on implementing a standard.
+
* Ian would like to start harvesting case studies and success stories w/ the different projects and technologies of Eclipse IoT
* Jens suggests that it would be good to have guidelines and "ip in cartoons"-like stuff for implementing standards
+
* Ian will start reaching out to companies and put together a template of the information needed for documenting the case study
  
= May 7, 2014 (WG call) =
+
== GitHub issues ==
  
== Agenda ==
+
* Projects have to use Bugzilla. The reason is Eclipse Fdn does not want to use vendor-specific solution (if a vendor goes away, we have an issue).
 +
* Ian suggests that PMC leaders Jens and Kai take the issue to the Board level via the Committer Reps
  
* Java for IoT launch at JavaOne

+
* Update on Open Source IoT server discussions
 +
* LwM2M over MQTT: next steps
  
=== Demo ===
+
== RiseV2G ==
  
* We should try to have an overall integrated demo, that would be across several booth (eg. Eclipse Fdn for the core demo, Actuate for the reporting, Eurotech for the HW, ...)
+
* This project aims to implement communication between Electric Vehicals (EVs) and charging stations
* ACTION ITEM: Benjamin to draft an outline of a demo scenario
+
** Based on IEC 15118 standard
 +
* Quite a community already: car manufacturers, utility, ...
 +
* Presented at two major international conferences over the last year
 +
* The protocol is client/server. RiseV2G aims at being integrated in charging stations (server) and the car is the client
 +
* Implementation is in Java
 +
* The protocol can be used for other smartgrid usecases like solar panels
  
=== Cookbook ===
+
* Code will be hosted on GitHub
  
* Series of short articles, how-tos, ...
+
* Marc indicates that there could be interesting collaboration opportunities with Eclipse SmartHome.
 +
** Kai indicates there is already a new binding in Eclipse SmartHome for Charging Stations (KeyBar(?))
  
== Marketing around MQTT ==
+
== IoT Commons ==
  
* Following the MQTT interop testing day, several attendees have expressed interest in doing more marketing efforts around MQTT
+
* Our goal should will be to work on providing open source implementations of existing APIs (see eg. javax.comm, javax.usb, OSGi Alliance RFCs)
 +
* If we don't have the API (e.g. Modbus): what should we do?
 +
* Benjamin will provide a metadata "template" to make it easier to document the dependencies.
  
== IIC ==
+
== IoT Server ==
  
* IBM, GE, Cisco, AT&T, and others
+
* Working group members are welcome to join the discussions regarding [[IoT/IoTServerPlatform]]
* IIC won't provide standards, they are more about influencing existing standards / open-source communities with requirements
+
* IIC aims at building testbeds for IoT solutions
+
* Ian explains that cross-membership is being considered (Eclipse Fdn to join IIC and the other way around)
+
** This also means opportunities to have joint meetings and joint events too
+
  
== OM2M sandbox ==
+
== LwM2M over MQTT ==
  
* ACTION ITEM: Mahdi to work with Benjamin and IT on setting up an OM2M sandbox
+
* Next steps: discussing proper integration of the work being done at IBM India in Leshan

== IoT Java Launch ==
+
* Benjamin Cabé
* Review [[https://wiki.eclipse.org/Launch_Plan_for_IoT_Java draft plan]]
+
* Ian Craggs
** Discussion about what are the packages and key deliverables. It was decided we have two main deliverables: 1) A set of foundation building blocks for IoT Java developers, including Paho, Calfornium, Kura and Concierge. 2) Solutions for IoT, including a solution for Industrial IoT in Eclipse SCADA and a solution for home automation in Eclipse SmartHome. These solutions make use of the foundation building blocks.  NOTE: OM2M might be another solution for Telecos?
+
* Julien Vermillard
** Discussion about the demos. The target will be to have at least 3 demos: 1) Green house demo that shows the foundation building blocks using Kura, MQTT, CoAP, etc. 2) Eclipse SmartHome demos and 3) Eclipse SCADA demo. The goal is to show each of these demos sharing data via MQTT and CoAP. Also show a consistent programming model using OSGi and Concierge.
+
* Luca Dazi
** Discussion about deployment targets. Initial target will be Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone but this might need to be refined.
+
** ACTION ITEM: Ian will update the plan based on this discussion.
+
 
+
== Build Support for Windows and OS/X ==
+
* Existing bug [[https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=415757 415757]] captures the requirement for build machines for non-Java projects but we need to capture what other IoT projects have this requirement.
+
* ACTION ITEM: Benjamin to include this requirement in his deployment infrastructure document.
+
 
+
== Update on Concierge ==
+
* Jans provides an update on the development plan for Concierge.
+
** R5 compatibility expect in the next month. Two key issues raised:
+
# EMF dependency on Equinox blocks projects like SmartHome from using Concierge. Bug [[https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=328227 328227]] is tracking this issue.
+
# Dependency Services is not implemented in Concierge. Kura makes use of DS so we need to identify what services are required. ACTION ITEM: Marco will open a bug on Concierge to track the requirements.
+
 
+
== New Meeting Time ==
+
* We want to move the meeting time so people from the west coast of the USA can participate. Project leaders please identify what time work for you on this [[http://doodle.com/xzr9xz5y6vu5pd33 Doodle poll]].
+
 
+
= April 8, 2014 (WG call) =
+
  
 
== Agenda ==
 
== Agenda ==
  
* New time for the bi-weekly call
+
* Update on the IoT Challenge. Deadline was yesterday and Benjamin will update on the submitted solution and relationship with Eclipse IoT projects.
* '''Ecosystem page''' on iot.eclipse.org update
+
* IP and process issues. Quick roundtable on any outstanding CQs or process issues that projects may have.
* '''Java for IoT''' – with many Eclipse IoT projects running on Java, it would be nice to discuss what can be done to improve and demonstrate our Java end-to-end story
+
* LwM2M over MQTT update.
* '''IoT events''' – upcoming events, speaking and sponsorship opportunities
+
  
== Participants ==
+
== IoT Challenge ==
  
* Benjamin Cabé
+
* The final entries have been submitted. See http://openiotchallenge.tumblr.com/
* Ian Skerrett
+
* The results will be announced shortly
* Hilary Thomasson
+
* Many great submissions around MQTT, Kura, MQTT-SN, LwM2M so all the project leads are encouraged to have a look and engage with the participants
* Linda Ariani Gunawan
+
* David Sciamma
+
* Marco Carrer
+
  
== New time for the call ==
+
== IP and Process Issues ==
  
* It's proposed to have the call 2 hours later (and not necessarily on a Tuesday), in order to allow participant in Pacific time to join
+
* Benjamin asks the project leads attending the call if they have process topics to discuss.
* ACTION ITEM: Benjamin will send a Doodle poll
+
  
== Ecosystem webpage ==
+
The following topics were discussed during the call:
  
* Web page will go live at the end of the week
+
* Julien is inquiring about the time it takes to do a formal release, and asks about how long it takes to get an IP log approved, and a release approved.
* ACTION ITEM: Benjamin to put the page live, and send a mail to the mailing list
+
** If the project leadership has been managing its contribution properly, and granted that there are no problematic CQs, the IP log is approved in less than a week
 +
** Once the IP log is approved, at the project review can be scheduled and the review period cannot be less than a week.
 +
** This [[Development_Resources/HOWTO/Release_Cycle#Release_Review|wiki page and associated diagram]] summarizes very well the workflow.
 +
** For the record, a project may decide to submit an IP log for approval even when a release isn't planned. This is useful whenever some major contributions or 3rd party libraries are added to the codebase, and in general to avoid rushing a few days before a release.
  
== Java for IoT ==
+
* Ian Craggs rises the point of some projects he's been trying to recruit as Paho components, and who are currently hosted on Github. One of the reasons these projects wouldn't move to Eclipse was the fact they would lose Github issues and a very "low barrier" for bugs/feature requests to be reported.
 +
** Julien highlights that the current situation is pretty messy: some Eclipse projects recently created have Github issues enabled, or have had GH issues disabled by Eclipse webmaster and lost the existing issues that people already opened.
 +
** Someone has reminded that GH pull requests are very similar to GH issues, and are allowed.
 +
** If there is a '''legal''' reason to not allow Github issues, the projects would like to know. If there is a technical reason, it seems {{bug|442828|7}} would be a viable answer. In general, the project leaders all expressed that they don't have a clear position from EMO that they can use to explain to their community why GH issues aren't allowed.
 +
** Ian Craggs notes that a solution to the problem might be to consider Github issues with different levels of contribution, and that in several cases, an issue is just opened as a way to engage the discussion. If a GH issue ends up being an actual contribution, the project leadership could "clone" the conversation on Bugzilla, if that is needed for a legal reason.
  
* Good progress on the technology side – great story for Java developers
+
* Still on the topics of Github development, it is note that some projects avec their GitHub wiki enabled.
* Ian would like to put together a plan for JavaOne: tutorials, documentation, deliverables
+
** Is this a bug? Or, again, what is EMO's official position?
* Hilary: Eurotech will be at JavaOne
+
* Marco: we should start a wiki page
+
* We should target more interoperability demos
+
* ACTION ITEM: Ian/Benjamin -> create a wiki page
+
  
== IoT Events ==
+
* Both Ian and Julien express concerns about libraries coming from the NodeJS or Javascript ecosystem who prove difficult to be cleared, IP-wise (libuv for Mosquitto, Bootstrap or Angular libraries for Leshan...)
 +
** Julien wonders why Eclipse projects can't use libraries that do not have proper CLAs, but seem to be used widely. "Why is everybody using NodeJS and NodeJS libraries if there is a risk?"
 +
** Benjamin will reach out to the Orion project leadership to understand better how they work with 3rd party JS dependencies
  
* IoTLive tomorrow
+
== LwM2M over MQTT ==
* EclipseCon France call for papers
+
* Hilary will share upcoming IoT events
+
* IoT DevCon in early may, Eclipse Fdn has a tabletop
+
  
== Misc ==
+
* A meeting is scheduled for April 2, to discuss the current prototype implemented by IBM India during the Open IoT Challenge, and prepare next steps.
 +
* [[IoT/LwM2M_MQTT_Binding/Meeting_minutes|Wiki page]]
  
* MQTT Interop Day press release went out today: http://iot.eclipse.org/documents/2014-04-08-MQTT-Interop-test-day-report.html

== Build Infra ==
 
  
The goal was to discuss what projects do today for building for MacOSX, Windows, ARM, ... and what could be done to simplify project lives.
+
== Agenda ==
  
* Getting an Equinox launcher for ARM sounds like something that would be useful to projects like SCADA and possibly SmartHome (Equinox is bootstraped manually when SmartHome runs on e.g. Raspberry Pi)
+
- IoT Challenge results to date
** People should subscribe to {{bug|431197}}
+
- IoT Developer Survey - review questions in attached document
 +
- Web site updates
 +
- EclipseCon and IoT Day update
  
* Build for Windows and Mac
+
== IoT Challenge ==
** Eclipse SCADA is using Hudson Windows slave to build signed MSI installers for Windows
+
** '''ACTION ITEM''': Benjamin will discuss with Eclipse Webmaster what is the best practice for Win and Mac build (Hudson slaves seem to be for testing only)
+
  
* Signing
+
* Participants' projects are highlighted on http://openiotchallenge.tumblr.com
** Eclipse SCADA is building RPM and DEB packages already
+
* Four projects are blogging actively and showing interesting results. Several "tips and tricks" and "tutorials" are being created as part of the blogging activity of the participants. Eclipse IoT projects should make sure to relay those in their own mailing lists, wikis, etc.
** There is no proper solution for signing such packages which need to be signed using gpg
+
* There are several solutions that are using Kura, Leshan, and MQTT/MQTT-SN
*** '''ACTION ITEM''': Benjamin to coordinate with Eclipse Webmaster to discuss the opportunity of using gpg for signing linux packages
+
* Deadline for final submissions will be March 23rd (initially Feb 27)
** It appears interesting to provide debian or rpm package repositories at Eclipse in a central way
+
*** '''ACTION ITEM''': Benjamin to coordinate with Eclipse Webmaster to discuss thoughts on package repos.
+
  
== Demo ==
+
== IoT Developer Survey ==
  
* Ian explained that it would be great to have a nice demonstration of our Java story for JavaOne in September
+
* The survey should help build awareness about Eclipse IoT by writing a report
* Idea would be to start collecting thoughts for a really compelling Java story, and start producing articles, demos, tutorials, ... for JavaOne
+
* We probably don't want more than 20 questions
* Kai Kreuzer details his vision for a SmartHome demo
+
* Question 10 on protocols should probably be split in two sections: messaging protocols and industrial protocols
** already discussing with Jan from Concierge to get SmartHome running on Concierge
+
* "Is open source an important factor for your IoT solution?" or "What's your organization's view on OSS: never use it, considering using it, ..."
** Paho is already being used, if Moquette comes to Eclipse SmartHome could also repackage an MQTT broker
+
** Kai discussing with Marco on how to integrate w/ Kura
+
* Jens explains that SCADA also plans on doing a demo together with eTrice and 4DIAC, targetting end-Sept
+
** demo would be something more industrial, using Modbus
+
* Scott Lewis described that ECF's implementation of standards-based OSGi Remote Services currently runs on Concierge (or any R5 OSGi framework), and that ECF has an [http://www.eclipse.org/ecf/NewAndNoteworthy.html MQTT remote services provider] currently based upon the [http://www.eclipse.org/paho Paho Java Client].  Given this, and the [https://wiki.eclipse.org/ECF existing tutorials and examples], it would be straightforward to put together a JavaOne demo...perhaps even for/with SmartHome...based upon Concierge, OSGi Remote Services, and MQTT...with standardization/interoperability being operative at all levels (OSGi framework, remoting/distribution, and messaging protocol/transport).
+
* '''ACTION ITEM''': Ian will put together a plan of what could be done for JavaOne
+
** Of course projects will have to be willing to provide support and help on actually implementing demos
+
  
== Misc ==
+
== Web site updates ==  
  
* Mattias explains he's now ready to contribute Californium to Eclipse, the current code base being now "frozen" after successful participation to IETF CoAP interop testing event.
+
* Benjamin and Ian are working on revamping the iot.eclipse.org website since it's start to show its age and is not adapted anymore to the numbers of projects and technologies we have
* Kai is interested in having CoAP support in SmartHome
+
* There should be showable results in the next couple weeks.
* Mahdi lets us know that two students are currently working on 1/ a CoAP Californium binding in OM2M and 2/ an Eclipse SCADA integration
+
  
* Everyone is invited to use the WG mailing list to post updates on cross-IoT-project work on the mailing list to encourage collaboration and sharing of knowledge
+
== IoT Day ==
  
* Note: JavaOne CfP ends on Apr15: http://www.oracle.com/javaone/call-for-papers/index.html
+
* The help of the Eclipse IoT members to recruit participants is greatly appreciated :)

+
** Website: we didn't really redo it, just renamed M2M->IoT, and updated the logo
+
** Wiki has been moved to http://wiki.eclipse.org/IoT
+
** Still TODO is renaming the mailing-list
+
  
* '''ACTION ITEM''': Ian to create iot-wg mailing-list and subscribe everybody who's on m2m-iwg to this new list
+
* Eclipse release train: every project joins and tools+plugins are synchronized
 +
* However for IoT we don't really have one single set of tools, but it would be great to provide a better view (calendar?) of what is in the pipe for the projects
 +

  • IoT Case Studies: I'd like to start collecting case studies on how companies are using Eclipse IoT technology.
  • Other topics?


Introduction of new members

  • James and XX from Red Hat introduced themselves.
  • Other new members who recently joined include Azul Systems and Verisign.

IoT Events

  • We are looking at having an Eclipse booth at M2M Summit and share the cost between Eclipse IoT members
  • IoT World Congress in Barcelona (same event organizer as Mobile World Congress)
    • Call for papers is out
  • IoT Day at EclipseCon Europe, similar to what we did at EclipseCon 2015
  • Industry of Things in Berlin
    • Can we do an Eclipse IoT Day just before or after this show?

Virtual IoT

  • 350 members and counting
  • Hundreds of replays of the webinars on YouTube
  • Alois is interested to present 4DIAC at the end of September. Benjamin will be in touch to put the presentation in the schedule.

IoT Case Studies

  • Ian would like to start harvesting case studies and success stories w/ the different projects and technologies of Eclipse IoT
  • Ian will start reaching out to companies and put together a template of the information needed for documenting the case study

GitHub issues

  • Projects have to use Bugzilla. The reason is Eclipse Fdn does not want to use vendor-specific solution (if a vendor goes away, we have an issue).
  • Ian suggests that PMC leaders Jens and Kai take the issue to the Board level via the Committer Reps

  • Jens Reimann
  • Kai Kreuzer
  • Marc Mültin
  • Virgil Dodson
  • Ian Skerrett
  • Dave Woodard

Agenda

  • Presentation of the new RiseV2G IoT Project
  • IoT Commons, in particular current status regarding Bluetooth LE and USB
  • Update on Open Source IoT server discussions
  • LwM2M over MQTT: next steps

RiseV2G

  • This project aims to implement communication between Electric Vehicals (EVs) and charging stations
    • Based on IEC 15118 standard
  • Quite a community already: car manufacturers, utility, ...
  • Presented at two major international conferences over the last year
  • The protocol is client/server. RiseV2G aims at being integrated in charging stations (server) and the car is the client
  • Implementation is in Java
  • The protocol can be used for other smartgrid usecases like solar panels
  • Code will be hosted on GitHub
  • Marc indicates that there could be interesting collaboration opportunities with Eclipse SmartHome.
    • Kai indicates there is already a new binding in Eclipse SmartHome for Charging Stations (KeyBar(?))

IoT Commons

  • Our goal should will be to work on providing open source implementations of existing APIs (see eg. javax.comm, javax.usb, OSGi Alliance RFCs)
  • If we don't have the API (e.g. Modbus): what should we do?
  • Benjamin will provide a metadata "template" to make it easier to document the dependencies.

IoT Server

LwM2M over MQTT

  • Next steps: discussing proper integration of the work being done at IBM India in Leshan

Mar 25, 2015 (Project leads call)

Participants

  • Benjamin Cabé
  • Ian Craggs
  • Julien Vermillard
  • Luca Dazi

Agenda

  • Update on the IoT Challenge. Deadline was yesterday and Benjamin will update on the submitted solution and relationship with Eclipse IoT projects.
  • IP and process issues. Quick roundtable on any outstanding CQs or process issues that projects may have.
  • LwM2M over MQTT update.

IoT Challenge

  • The final entries have been submitted. See http://openiotchallenge.tumblr.com/
  • The results will be announced shortly
  • Many great submissions around MQTT, Kura, MQTT-SN, LwM2M so all the project leads are encouraged to have a look and engage with the participants

IP and Process Issues

  • Benjamin asks the project leads attending the call if they have process topics to discuss.

The following topics were discussed during the call:

  • Julien is inquiring about the time it takes to do a formal release, and asks about how long it takes to get an IP log approved, and a release approved.
    • If the project leadership has been managing its contribution properly, and granted that there are no problematic CQs, the IP log is approved in less than a week
    • Once the IP log is approved, at the project review can be scheduled and the review period cannot be less than a week.
    • This wiki page and associated diagram summarizes very well the workflow.
    • For the record, a project may decide to submit an IP log for approval even when a release isn't planned. This is useful whenever some major contributions or 3rd party libraries are added to the codebase, and in general to avoid rushing a few days before a release.
  • Ian Craggs rises the point of some projects he's been trying to recruit as Paho components, and who are currently hosted on Github. One of the reasons these projects wouldn't move to Eclipse was the fact they would lose Github issues and a very "low barrier" for bugs/feature requests to be reported.
    • Julien highlights that the current situation is pretty messy: some Eclipse projects recently created have Github issues enabled, or have had GH issues disabled by Eclipse webmaster and lost the existing issues that people already opened.
    • Someone has reminded that GH pull requests are very similar to GH issues, and are allowed.
    • If there is a legal reason to not allow Github issues, the projects would like to know. If there is a technical reason, it seems bug 442828 comment 7 would be a viable answer. In general, the project leaders all expressed that they don't have a clear position from EMO that they can use to explain to their community why GH issues aren't allowed.
    • Ian Craggs notes that a solution to the problem might be to consider Github issues with different levels of contribution, and that in several cases, an issue is just opened as a way to engage the discussion. If a GH issue ends up being an actual contribution, the project leadership could "clone" the conversation on Bugzilla, if that is needed for a legal reason.
  • Still on the topics of Github development, it is note that some projects avec their GitHub wiki enabled.
    • Is this a bug? Or, again, what is EMO's official position?
  • Both Ian and Julien express concerns about libraries coming from the NodeJS or Javascript ecosystem who prove difficult to be cleared, IP-wise (libuv for Mosquitto, Bootstrap or Angular libraries for Leshan...)
    • Julien wonders why Eclipse projects can't use libraries that do not have proper CLAs, but seem to be used widely. "Why is everybody using NodeJS and NodeJS libraries if there is a risk?"
    • Benjamin will reach out to the Orion project leadership to understand better how they work with 3rd party JS dependencies

LwM2M over MQTT

  • A meeting is scheduled for April 2, to discuss the current prototype implemented by IBM India during the Open IoT Challenge, and prepare next steps.
  • Wiki page

Agenda

- IoT Challenge results to date - IoT Developer Survey - review questions in attached document - Web site updates - EclipseCon and IoT Day update

IoT Challenge

  • Participants' projects are highlighted on http://openiotchallenge.tumblr.com
  • Four projects are blogging actively and showing interesting results. Several "tips and tricks" and "tutorials" are being created as part of the blogging activity of the participants. Eclipse IoT projects should make sure to relay those in their own mailing lists, wikis, etc.
  • There are several solutions that are using Kura, Leshan, and MQTT/MQTT-SN
  • Deadline for final submissions will be March 23rd (initially Feb 27)

IoT Developer Survey

  • The survey should help build awareness about Eclipse IoT by writing a report
  • We probably don't want more than 20 questions
  • Question 10 on protocols should probably be split in two sections: messaging protocols and industrial protocols
  • "Is open source an important factor for your IoT solution?" or "What's your organization's view on OSS: never use it, considering using it, ..."

Web site updates

  • Benjamin and Ian are working on revamping the iot.eclipse.org website since it's start to show its age and is not adapted anymore to the numbers of projects and technologies we have
  • There should be showable results in the next couple weeks.

IoT Day

  • The help of the Eclipse IoT members to recruit participants is greatly appreciated :)
