Dave Wallace to be VPP project represetative at TSC

Damjan Marion
 

Guys,

According to the new fd.io Technical Community Doc:

---
A Core Projects PTL may choose to appoint another committer from that Core Project to represent the core project in their stead.
---

As Dave is already attending TSC meetings for a long period of time and he is very active I decided to appoint Dave to represent VPP project.

Thanks,

—

Ed,

LOL... I'm OK with us making a choice of timezone to offset into. It just gets my hackles up when folks somehow pretend UTC+offsets are some universal answer to the problem: they aren't.

UTC+offsets is *not* a timezone... ISO 8601 is for identifying *points* in time, not timezones. If we want to set our meetings in the UTC timezone, that's fine, but pretending it's anything but a choice of timezones and is somehow magically universal has been a point of ongoing annoyance for me :)

All of that said, given that the weight of the TSC is in EU, I'm fine picking an EU oriented timezone to anchor the meeting in, like CEST... or even UTC :)
I think it is a misunderstanding that you need a time zone.
You need a fixed reference point in time for when the meeting should happen.
E.g. 1500UTC.

Then it's up to local participants to figure out what they have their watches set to in relation to this.

Can you suggest then, an alternative that might work better?

Ole,

 

Offset from UTC is not a timezone... it's an identifier of a point in time.  It's intrinsically a *choice* of timezone, no better or worse than any other.

Ray, do you mean GMT [1] or UTC [2], they are different [3]. 

And yes, I know, the world of time is confusing, so no surprise we get confused to :)

US DST ends this Saturday 11/6/2021 at midnight, so next week the

REMINDER: Webinar: Orange Deploys ONAP in Production, Wed, 8 AM PT

Brandon Wick
 

LFN Community:

This is a reminder that we have a webinar with Orange coming up this week on Wednesday, November 10th, at 8:00 AM Pacific. Register for the event today to learn about how they deployed ONAP into production and get your questions answered. The recording and slide deck will be sent to all registrants post-event.

LFN Webinar: Orange Deploys ONAP in Production
Realizing a long-pursued goal of using the Open Networking Automation Platform (ONAP), Orange has deployed and trialed an automation framework powered by ONAP. The current use case, in production in Orange Egypt, includes automating network services, network connectivity and resource management inside IP/MPLS, and configuration changes such as provisioning virtual private networks. Through this initiative, Orange has demonstrated that ONAP has reached the maturity and modularity for network operators to take combinations of ONAP projects and components from proof of concept to production. Join this webinar with Olivier Augizeau from Orange and Mohamed Hasan and team from Orange Egypt to learn about the challenges, benefits, and tips for deploying ONAP in production networks.

Lijian Zhang nomination for FD.io TSC

Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan)
 

Hi,

Following discussion about TSC evolution, specifically TSC appointed members
per tech community doc (links [0] and [1]), I would like to propose
Lijian Zhang from Arm as a candidate for FD.io TSC.

Summary of Lijian's FD.io work and contribution below:

Lijian Zhang has worked on FD.io VPP/aarch64 project since June 2018. He has
contributed patches [2] to support Arm features and optimize VPP performance
on Arm servers [3]. Collaborating with community working on VPP/aarch64, he
worked on enabling VPP CI/CD [4] and CSIT performance testing on Arm servers
[5]. He managed the shipment of 2x ThunderX2 servers to FD.io lab in 2020
[6] and is currently coordinating the shipment of 2x Ampere Altra servers to
FD.io lab now.

Lijian knows software optimization on Arm architecture and has connection with
the Arm partners. He is actively promoting FD.io VPP within Arm ecosystem.

Lijian joined Arm in 2018, and leads a small team working on open source
Networking projects in Arm. Prior to that, he has 10 years working experience
developing software for ASIC based switchs and routers in Cisco and ZTE.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Cheers,
Maciek
