  3. New sandbox servers for CoAP and Lightweight M2M
  4. Other questions and issues from project leaders

Participants

  • Ian Skerrett
  • Kai Kreuzer
  • Mattias Kovatsch
  • Jens Reimann
  • Marco Carrer
  • Jan Rellermeyer

IoT Java Launch

  • Review [draft plan]
    • 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?
    • 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.
    • 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 [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:
  1. EMF dependency on Equinox blocks projects like SmartHome from using Concierge. Bug [328227] is tracking this issue.
  2. 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 [Doodle poll].

April 1, 2014 (Project leads call)

Agenda

  • Build infra and integration needs
  • Java demo at JavaOne
  • Misc

Participants

  • Benjamin Cabe
  • Ian Skerrett
  • Kai Kreuzer
  • Mattias Kovatsch
  • Scott Lewis
  • Ian Craggs
  • Jurgen Rose
  • Jens Reimann
  • Mahdi Ben Alaya

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.

  • 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)
  • Build for Windows and Mac
    • 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
    • Eclipse SCADA is building RPM and DEB packages already
    • There is no proper solution for signing such packages which need to be signed using gpg
      • ACTION ITEM: Benjamin to coordinate with Eclipse Webmaster to discuss the opportunity of using gpg for signing linux packages
    • 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

  • Ian explained that it would be great to have a nice demonstration of our Java story for JavaOne in September
  • Idea would be to start collecting thoughts for a really compelling Java story, and start producing articles, demos, tutorials, ... for JavaOne
  • Kai Kreuzer details his vision for a SmartHome demo
    • already discussing with Jan from Concierge to get SmartHome running on Concierge
    • 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 MQTT remote services provider currently based upon the Paho Java Client. Given this, and the 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

  • 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.
  • Kai is interested in having CoAP support in SmartHome
  • 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

  • Eurotech
    • It's been discussed to try to have an always running version of the people counter. Hilary will synchronize with Marco
  • Mattias: it is hard to provide live/web demos of CoAP. Video would be an option
    • A test server could be hosted on iot.eclipse.org, and you could download Copper for Firefox (CoAP plugin) for doing some tests

Collaboration between projects

  • Andy: would that make sense to have kind of a cross-projects mailing-list?
    • Ian suggests to start with the m2m-iwg mailing-list for now
  • Ian: is there a need for a build infrastructure for e.g building for the Raspberry Pi
    • Jens: yes! building for Windows is also a requirement for EclipseSCADA
    • Marco: would be great to have ready-to-use binaries for popular open-hw platforms
  • Ian suggests to open bugs for capturing requirements from the projects about build infrastructure and the like
  • Mattias: it would be great if the m2m.eclipse.org website would feature a more visual representation of how the projects are working/connected with each other
  • IoT day - April 9th
    • Idea would be to have a one-day webinar
      • If projects have resources they would like to feature, this would be a great opportunity
      • ACTION: Benjamin and Ian to put together a more formal plan about this event
  • Ian reminds project leaders that if they need help with creating a logo for their projects, he can assist
  • Ian: it would be great if by the end of 2014 this group would be able to provide a "ready-to-use" platform for IoT
