Agenda Items
- Review items from last meeting in Dublin (Please add remarks)
BSPs & Layer Index
=> oe driving toward machine readable files, can also drive from layer test (yp compat) side - KK => publicize defs of each list? discuss on members list - where to overall architecture discussions belong => TSC to add new mailing list specifically about project architecture, no patches, and determine list name -> KK bring discussion to new mailing list
BSP standards - standards exist,coming soon are methods for comparing
a given layer with the standard => need wiki documentation for TSC to ratify -> document distro vs. machine policies, other best practices
BSP layer availability
-> encourage board vendors to provide a BSP, make it easier to do so => ask yp ab to talk to linux.com [PB] - community issue -> look at digi manual (i.e. "just add bsp changes in local.conf")
meta-yocto to meta-poky
=> RP to take action on the YP side, possibly not for 2.0 => formalize lowercase as mandatory requirement for overrides, look for other options in the future
Layer Index feature requests discussed with layer index build feedback>>
-> ask for cycles from employers to work on these issues -> make people aware, help with triage, provide resources
Security
-> need a method for tracking CVs
Systemd
complaints: more package config, comments; look at packaging to have minimal systemd even with options available -> need someone with time available to work on it -> need to get systemd feedback, people using systemd talk to package maintainer => file systemctl wrapper bug
Advocacy
-> board to discuss advocacy/community, invite jefro to meetings Potential OE Day at ELCE next year => board: do a proper cfp
