Hi Everyone, Sorry for the incoming long wall of text. I wanted to comment on the incubation/active status debates so that hopefully we could clarify things, frustrate people less, and spend less time

Hi Dan, I’m not sure I totally agree with all of these points. Maybe you can convince me otherwise, but I’m not yet convinced. I definitely agree that having a diverse contributor and maintainer base

Hi Everyone, Sorry to spam you all again, but I wanted to address some more issues and concerns about our processes. Most of this is in light of our discussion over email and in the TSC meeting last w

I’ll be on a plane and don’t have anything new to discuss either. Let’s cancel the call. Thanks Arnaud for taking the initiative on this, rather than having a dead call. Thanks, Hart

Hi Everyone, Thanks for all the emails, and it’s great to hear from you all post-winter holidays. I had a question: has any progress been made on the DCO front? An email update would be awesome if the

Hi Everyone, Thanks for the informative responses. I’m with Chris here—it might be time to consider a CLA model. I highly doubt the board will let us keep doing what we’ve done so far after they look

Hi BitXHub Team, Thank you for your responses. It’s always nice to see more people interested in blockchain integration. At Fujitsu, we have also built a blockchain interoperability platform. It’s qui

Hi Everyone, At the blockchain integration framework (BIF) lab meeting yesterday, we (the BIF lab community) decided that we were finally ready to start the process of applying for project incubation

Hi Everyone, Thank you very much to all of those that have looked over our proposal already. Given the feedback we have received so far, we’d like to begin the process of formally applying for project

Hi Dan, Thank you for the thoughtful questions. Peter and I collaborated on some answers, which I’ve included below. Please feel free to follow up if you’ve got any more questions or comments, includi

Hi Vipin, Thanks for the comment. You’re exactly right. You can definitely do very complicated, probabilistic things with regard to settlement by offering faster settlement based on a risk premium tha

Hi Everyone, Thanks for all of the constructive feedback at the TSC meeting yesterday. We’re interested in putting together the best possible solution for blockchain integration that we can, and many

I agree with Dan and Gari. It makes sense to schedule every other week, with “bonus” meetings to discuss substantial agenda items as is seen fit. The one thing I think we should do if we move to biwee

+1 from me too! Thanks Ry.

Hi Everyone, If we are going to continue the discussion on projects that end up being tied to a single framework (which it looks like people wanted to do), can we (as a TSC) formally solicit the opini

Hi Arnaud (and everyone), Thanks for the email. Yes, this was something that I brought up when we were discussing moving the Besu project from incubation to active status (although I don't believe the

We usually do this every year. It makes sense to go ahead and cancel them. I assume we are also going to cancel the Thanksgiving TSC meeting? I suspect American participation would be very low. Thanks

Hi Arun, Thanks for bringing this up to everyone. I think #1, in particular, is a big issue. Most projects have their own specific PR requirements that can be difficult to get right on the first time.

Hi Everyone, I'd also like to hear about people's perspectives on anonymous contributors. I informally and off the record (so it doesn't count as legal advice) spoke to a patent attorney about the ram

Hi Dave, Thanks a lot for the thoughtful email. I totally agree with you: we need to have a lot more clarification as to what sort of projects are likely to be approved for incubation. Even if there a
