[Fiware-technical-committee] FIWARE TSC elections and way of working of our TSC from now on

[Juanjo Hierro]

Dear all,

   Now with Veronika fully on board as our Scrum Master at the FIWARE 
Foundation, we would like to introduce a number of changes in our Way of 
Working (WoW) at the FIWARE TSC:

  * Veronika will send every tuesday after a FIWARE TSC, a draft agenda
    with link to pre-minutes for the following TSC
  * Members of the TSC will then be invited to propose additional topics
    until Thursday noon
  * Veronika will send a final version of the agenda and pre-minutes
    before Thursday EOB
  * People will have the opportunity to add input in the pre-minutes
    before the TSC

   Once every month, we will send a mail to the FIWARE ecosystem 
reminding that individual members and people working for FIWARE 
Foundation member organizations are invited to join and that they can 
follow discussion through the publicly available minutes.

   From now on and after the re-structuring of FIWARE chapters, we will 
organize our TSCs as follows:

  * 1st hour: report on progress from GE owners in the various FIWARE
    chapters plus the chapter on FIWARE Lab and deployment tools:
      o Context Management (Core) Chapter
      o Data/API Management, Publication and Monetization Chapter
      o Context Processing, Analysis and Visualisation Chapter
      o Interface with IoT, robotics and third systems Chapter
      o FIWARE Lab and deployment tools
  * 2nd hour: proposed topics

   We will be rotating among the chapters so each week we will focus on 
one.  Topics/GEs to cover will be picked in advance. I'll come with a 
proposed calendar we all can review.

   We would like to start with the Context Management (Core) Chapter 
this next TSC: José Manuel will be in charge of that.

   Proposed topics for the second hour will change based on demand, but 
until Hannover-Messe we shall include an item to follow-up on progress 
of our Task Force regarding implementation of IDS architecture 
concepts:  20 mins will be booked for this.

   The FIWARE Foundation General Assembly is coming and one of the 
questions we shall solve is that of running new elections of the TSC 
seats.  This will be one of the topics for our next TSC (2nd hour).   We 
have two choices:

  * Rely on the bylaws, therefore go for election of 2 representatives
    per chapter (we'll have now only 5) and then additional 3
    individuals (platinum members choose who take their seats)
  * Ask for a change in the bylaws so that we run for elections of
    individual representatives, up to a number we find suitable, not
    linking them to existing chapters

   So we will discuss what way to go at next TSC.  Your feedback in the 
meantime will be welcome.

   Cheers,

--
