There were modifications made in response to the concerns/issues raised at/related-to ONS-NA., This was publicly discussed at the LFN-TAC face to face meeting at ONS and there was no negative feedback coming from either the TAC or community members during the discussion. Changes that would be implemented for ONS-Europe are: Addressing the complaint that Project specific papers were all rejected by the ONS program committee: the length of ONS would be extended to allow for additional sessions focused on open source networking projects, their new and/or interesting features, and how users can take advantage of those features. Addressing the complaint of high registration fees impacting attendance: any developer forums are to be completely decoupled from the ONS event; LFN projects would not be forced to hold their developer forums there, however if a community desires to have a developer forum coincident with an ONS they are welcome to do so, but not at the ONS venue. This model allows the Project to have free registration for participants, the goal being to get as many developers there as possible To cite an example, the ODL technical community will hold their next DDF (Developer Design Forum) coincident with ONS Europe because it aligns well to their release schedule and planning. ODL's event will not be located in the same venue as ONS, but instead will be located at a different venue nearby, that is much less expensive than the ONS venue. For ONAP and OPNFV on the other hand, our summer/winter release cycles don't align to ONS's spring/fall dates. We had out developer event in June in China and OPNFV also had their event (Plugfest) in June in France. For both Projects their next Developer Event is targeted for Nov/Dev (likely in the U.S.). If we can find a venue that can hold both the ONAP and OPNFV Communities, we'll put these two together. If we can't, then they will be separate events. All of that said, if the ONAP TSC wants to have a full-blown Developer Event in Amsterdam, we are running way behind. From my perspective hosting such an event does not make sense for us. It is the week after Casablanca Code Freeze and pretty much I believe that most teams will want to be heads-down doing work. If the desire is for something like an all-day TSC F2F meeting (TSC members, Subcommittee Chairs & Community Coordinators), in a small venue near ONS, with remote access of course, then we are still OK for time, provided that a decision is made quickly. From my perspective something like that would be highly beneficial as it provides an opportunity for the newly elected TSC to get acquainted and dig into the business of running ONAP. Hope that helps to clarify.

Actually I was looking back over what has been stated as I was also confused on this. The “2018” plans was 3F2F Developer meetings / Hackfests (2 of which we have had and the third one planned for December); and When presenting the dates it has been indicated a TSC F2F in conjunction with ONS Europe, not a developers event. If we had the F2F TSC meeting, would that imply signing up for the ONS Europe fee? It’s a bit hard to ask how many TSC members could attend right now of course ….

Best Jamil Le 6 juil. 2018 à 06:48, Alla Goldner <alla.gold...@amdocs.com> a écrit : Hi Kenny, all, My impression was that we plan to have full ONAP f2f meeting during ONS Europe, including TSC meeting, technical sessions, project discussions etc. The reason is that it was communicated as ONAP’s meeting happening during ONS Europe. In that case, this would be similar to ONS NA (but more technical sessions included).

Our next developer forum will be in December – date and location still TBD - but a F2F meeting of the new TSC may be appropriate. If there is a desire to do anything we need to get the ball rolling immediately.
