Hi all,

To jolt the collective memory, the wiki pages that were built by the "breaking the silos" task force included

a. https://wiki.hyperledger.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=51611464 A call to action

b. The wiki page for a cross SIG approach

c. Common problems to be solved (an integrative approach)

Most of this material addresses SIGs, as SIGs are at the top layer, the solutions can come from any of the lower layers.

We had started to break out functional and non-functional cross-cutting concerns, which has to be solved through technical means, but has to be presented to the world through higher levels. Thus, doing a survey of activities in projects and labs are a natural extension of this idea.

The activity seems to have petered out, however Andrea Frosinini (the TF SIG Chair) posts frequently on linked in with this hash-tag.

The flame is burning low at the moment, but can be revivified by the current proposal by Hart seconded by Kamlesh and David Boswell.

Subject: Re: [Hyperledger TSC] TSC Member Attendance of Project Meetings

 

Hart,

Great Idea, The SIG and WG have such great information to share. Please check out this link to the LMDWG Resource page for SIGs and WGs in a first attempt to organize this effort. https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/LMDWG/Special+Interest+Groups

Hi Everyone,

 

I wanted to expound a little bit on what I mentioned near the end of the last TSC meeting.  One thing that I think would benefit the TSC (and Hyperledger as a whole) is more awareness of and interaction with different projects.  This could spur more cross-project collaboration, less fragmentation between projects, and, in general, more project happiness with the TSC.

 

I proposed the following:  ask each TSC member to attend one project meeting a month for a project that they are not affiliated to and have not been a contributor (and, ideally, one that they have not attended before).  Whether people want to introduce themselves and participate or just listen wouldn't matter too much; I think just attendance would be great.  Additionally, I'd suggest we keep track of meeting attendance in some kind of spreadsheet (either public, if people are OK with it, or private to the TSC) with the main purpose being that TSC members know which meetings other members have attended so that we can stagger our attendance across many project meetings (for instance, this won't be very effective if all the TSC members attend the same meeting).  The time commitment--one meeting a month--should be pretty small, and I hope that going to these meetings would be very informative for TSC members, and an opportunity for projects who aren't strongly connected to the TSC to ask questions about HL as a whole if they want.

 

There probably shouldn't be a strict mandate for this, but ideally, there could be some form of "reward" as well:  maybe Daniela (or the LF) could buy TSC members who made a new meeting a month some dinner/drinks at the next in-person HL meeting (or maybe the global forum?) as sort of a fun incentive for participation?

 

What do people think about this?  If this seems like a good idea, I'll write up something more formal.

 

Thank you very much for reading, and have a great day.

 

Thanks,

Hart
