General Topics
- New Members - Wayne to nominate 2 candidates
- Marcel - Marketplace: All Solution Providers got an invitation to use the AERI for own plugins
- Wayne - Security
Denis: Bugzilla
- Account moderation had been enabled
- Thanks to collaboration with GNOME community, one of their spam prevention plugins could be installed
- Deployed on Polarsys and Eclipse bugzilla - working great so far
- Bugzilla version is old, but upgrading needs service upgrades too (planned for the summer)
Denis: Servers
- 7 new servers deployed, 4 more to deploy in the coming weeks (in order to regain stability)
Wayne: Mentoring
- Struggling to find mentors
- Marcel: Don't see questions from mentored projects, so unsure about the benefit of mentoring
- Wayne: Some projects violate Eclipse principles; Foundation is improving communication to alleviate this, but is it enough?
- Jonas: When Eclipse opened up to IoT, Locationtech ... domains are unknown to many old-timers;
- bring in more people to the AC? Or form a new (less formal) group of possible mentors, other than AC
- Projects which have been in the ecosystem since 1 year or so might be more willing to mentor other newcomers
- Jim: Been mentoring Locationtech, but the Locationtech Community is really disjoint with AC
- AI Wayne create 2 Bugzilla's for discussion ("advice for mentors", and "changing the definition of the mentor pool"
- There might be an option for refocusing the AC, to be discussed separately
Wayne: Dockerhub
- Wayne has been given the keys to upload Polarsys and Locationtech; keys are available for anyone who wants to experiment with this
- Che started doing some work with this
- Not an official EF distribution channel yet, thus not imposing IP policy rules as of today ("let it happen for a while")
- A bug is open for discussing the process
- Jim: For Geomesa this has been very useful; Quaid is also looking at it; more lightweight process for distributing complete systems is very appreciated
- Jim: In terms of pattern and practice, make it clear how to build a docker image (then it becomes clear what went into it)
Wayne: Security
