All,
As discussed in
our recent IoT Working Group meeting we are
proposing to create an Eclipse top-level project for
our IoT community. This is reflective of the success
we have had to date creating a vibrant and growing
IoT community.
The process to
create a top-level project is for the community to
first agree to a draft charter and then the Eclipse
board of director will approve the creation of the
top-level project. A draft of the top-level charter
has been created and now available for review
https://wiki.eclipse.org/IoT/M2MIWG/TLP_Charter_Draft
Please provide your feedback before June 12.
We will also need
to select leaders of the top-level Project
Management Committee (PMC). Kai Kreuzer and Jens
Reimann have both volunteered to act as co-leaders
for the PMC. If anyone else would like to be
nominated please let me know.
Finally, each of
the existing Eclipse IoT projects will be asked to
vote on their development list to move their project
to the new Eclipse IoT top-level project.
This is a great
step forward for our IoT community.
Regards,
Ian
