Sorry, I should have consolidated all of my thoughts into one
email...
Now that the board has approved the creation of the project, we need
to run a quick restructuring review to move the IoT projects into
their new home. For this, all I need is a paragraph and a list of
projects that need to move.
e.g.
"The Eclipse Board of Directors has approved the creation of a new
top-level Internet of Thing (IoT) project. With this restructuring
review, we will create the new IoT top-level project. The following
projects will move into the new top-level project."
I expect that the list of projects is similar (or exactly) the list
of projects already affiliated with the IoT working group.
https://projects.eclipse.org/working-group/iot
I think that a few projects may be missing from this list; we can
use this as an opportunity to update this list as well.
Let's push to assemble the necessary information by July 21st.
Richard and I will assemble the review document and start the
community review process on the 23rd with wrap up on the 30th. We'll
then get the webmaster's help to effect the necessary changes in
early August.
We'll get Webmaster to set up an iot-pmc@xxxxxxxxxxx mailing list
for PMC business.
The top-level project will get a page in the PMI (e.g. [1]) which
will show information about the project including a description, PMC
members, etc. If desired, we can create an IoT top-level project
landing page on www.eclipse.org (e.g. [2]), build my suggestion is
to not create the extra landing page on www.eclipse.org, as I am
concerned that it will just add confusion given that we already have
the iot.eclipse.org site. But, it's entirely up to you.
Richard, please set up a short call sometime on the week of the 21st
for Kai, Jens, Benjamin, you, and me so that we can quickly chat
about PMC responsibilities, answer questions, and otherwise get
everything ready to go. Ian, you're welcome to join as well if you'd
like.
Thanks,
Wayne
