[Hyperledger Project TSC] How to get involved in hyperledger
Fabian Schuh <fabian@...>
Hello TSC members,
we have been trying to reach out to this group since we first came across the blog post about Linux Foundation's blockchain initiative and have never heard back. Did we choose the wrong approach? Anyway, our company (Cryptonomex Inc.) would like to get more involved with this initiative. Not only because we can contribute quite some amount of code, but also because many members of our core team have been part of the crypto currency ecosystem for several years and have come up with quite some innovations. I have recently filled out the form to apply for a corporate membership but again haven't heard back. How should we proceed to get involved in Hyperledger? Where can I get more material about the goals of the initiative and this steering committee? Hoping for a reply this time. Cheers -- Fabian Schuh *Fabian Schuh* / Business Developer, Technical Consultant fabian@... <mailto:fabian@...> CRYPTONOMEX, INC. 2020 Kraft Dr Suite 3040 Blacksburg, VA 24060 www.cryptonomex.com <https://www.cryptonomex.com> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/cryptonomex-inc-> <https://github.com/cryptonomex> <https://twitter.com/cryptonomex> <https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomex> Cryptonomex is a leading supplier of advanced block chain technology.

[Hyperledger Project TSC] code-of conduct
Christopher B Ferris <chrisfer@...>
One thing that i believe that we should establish early on is a code of conduct for the Hyperledger project.
I helped craft the CoC used by one of our sibling projects at the LF - the Cloud Foundry Foundation [1] - we based that on a number of similar documents from a variety of projects. I'm a bit biased, but I'd like to propose we use it as a starting point to crafting our own.
Mike, can we please add 'code of conduct proposal' to next week's agenda, and reference the link below?
Meanwhile, I'd welcome discussion on any proposed improvements.

Re: [Hyperledger Project TSC] [technical-discuss] Proposal for Hyperledger Technical CommunityCall
Christopher B Ferris <chrisfer@...>
Thanks, Mike!
We should have IRC integrated with Slack... I know some people prefer IRC and some Slack. best of both worlds if we can unite them.
I think a wiki would be useful. It is fairly simple to set one up in git. Whatever is easiest.

[Hyperledger Project TSC] Draft Agenda for 2/18 TSC Meeting
Michael Dolan <mdolan@...>
For Thursday’s Hyperledger TSC Call, below are the agenda topics I’ve captured from last meeting and subsequent email threads. Please remember the deadline for submitting TSC Chair nominations is tomorrow (Wed) at 9pm US Pacific Time. I’d like to give any nominees a few minutes to discuss their candidacy at the start of the call, if the nominees want to. Finally, if anyone would like to volunteer to lead the discussion on use cases or convergence proposals, please let me know. I saw Binh sent an email with a conversion proposal last week, but wasn’t sure if we should plan for any others who can lead portions of the discussion. Draft Agenda:
If there are any other agenda topics we should add, please let me know. Thanks, Mike

Re: [Hyperledger Project TSC] Draft Agenda for 2/18 TSC Meeting
Mike,
We discussed taking time for an overview of what Intel plans to commit. I could provide a high level overview this week or we could wait until the code is finally published.

Hello, I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself: I am co-founder of HitFin (http://www.hitfin.com), a software company that brings traditional financial contracts (such as derivatives) to the blockchain. Our platform is based on Ethereum, but we are very interested in participating in this project to help move blockchain technology forward. We are in regular contact with customers from the financial services and insurance industries who approach us with specific use cases for blockchain technology. Through those conversations, we are learning a lot about the strengths and weaknesses of the current-generation technology and we have collected ideas regarding how future generations can offer improvements and deliver value to the financial services industry, particularly related to trading and post-trade clearing & settlement. I would be happy to share some of those thoughts during the call on Thursday. Best,

One thing that i believe that we should establish early on is a code of conduct for the Hyperledger project.How about having no code of conduct? See for example https://github.com/domgetter/NCoC/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md In my opinion, a CoC brings nothing over normal civil behaviour which I feel is an implicit requirement for succesful participation in any project. Trying to codify everything in rules will only lead to people discussing and arguing the rules, look for corner cases and exceptions, etc. Common sense beats a CoC any day [*]. Remco [*] I realise common sense is not all that common, unfortunately.

Hi everyone, just another reminder to get any TSC Chair nominations in by 9pm Pacific Time TODAY. I’ve only seen a nomination from Chris Ferris. If anyone else on the TSC wishes to be nominated, please send your nomination ASAP.

Second, Intel has notified me they’re ready to discuss a contribution they’re planning to make and have been working on. I’ve allocated time for an overview tomorrow. They’re still working to clear the code for making it available, but it would be good to get an understanding of their proposal. I’ve revised the agenda below to accommodate and have attached a PDF of slides Mic would like to walk through. Please note we have a very tight agenda and I’d ask you dial in a few minutes early so that we can get a quick start. Given the high number of participants last week, we’ve turned off the beeping feature on GoToMeeting when new participants join. Hopefully that will enable a smoother discussion. Agenda:
Thanks, Mike

Re: [Hyperledger Project TSC] Proposal Template Rough Draft
Georg Link <linkgeorg@...>
Hi Vipin, thank you for making the initial proposal. I think you already received some good feedback during the TSC call. For everyone who was not on the TSC call earlier. Here are examples from other Collaborative Projects: Further ideas might come from looking at Apache Incubator: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/proposal.html One question that I don't remember being addressed: who can be a technical champion. Does it have to be a TSC member (similar to the apache incubator) or can it be anyone? Another topic brought up: what are "projects" within Hyperledger. From my understanding it is any initiative that furthers Hyperledger, including new features, modules (maybe in different repositories), or special interest sub-groups (QA-group ?). Basically anything that requires resources and the community should decide collectively whether to go down a certain path (commit to the proposed project). - It might be helpful to include a "definition" to know for what to create a project proposal. Best Georg
