Dear TSC, I think we have a little conundrum with the current code base repos. As you are likely aware the original code base we had released was matching our 1610 internal release. We have been busy the last few weeks uploading the delta to bring the public code base up to the current internal version to give the community the same view/code we use today. Now it turns out that our current internal code base requires some additional ?sub-repos? 3 under A&AI and one under SDC. Without those repos we can not complete the public code update by 5/5 as originally promised.
The conundrum now is that we still don?t have a charter and no projects have been created yet. So there is no process for us to create those additional repos on LF servers. Therefore, I am requesting a one time waiver from the TSC allowing the LF to create those repos so we can complete the code base update in a timely manor. I don?t really think there is any substantial risk as the TSC can always decide to delete the repos again later if the TSC doesn?t like them. On the positive side it allows the community to see all the code in a timely manor. To be clear those are nor new functional components. Those repos only include improvements to the existing functional components in particular A&AI and SDC. Thx Oliver
