Hi all, Here is the meeting notes for the last DPDK technical board meeting held on 2017-04-27.
Please note that meetings are open to all to attend. Any topics to be referred to the tech board for discussion at that meeting should be emailed to techbo...@dpdk.org. Normally, it's a bi-weekly meeting. Member attendees: - Bruce Richardson - Hemant Agrawal - Jan Blunck - Jerin Jacob - Olivier Matz - Stephen Hemminger - Thomas Monjalon - Yuanhan Liu 1.Scope of cmdline and cfgfile libraries in DPDK ------------------------------------------------- - DPDK will continue to keep one version of cli and cfg libs in dpdk. They can be replaced with a better version in future. - w.r.t Keith's CLI lib proposal. It should replace the existing CLI lib. If any api changes are required, the api deprecation process should be followed. - It is acknowledged that cli and cfg libs can also be used outside dpdk. They can be better hosted on a different git repository. However, DPDK needs a better external dep system to do this. - The DPDK build system should be improved to work better with external dependencies. Thomas and Bruce will send a RFC on build system reqs for handling external deps. 2. DPDK Bug Tracker ----------------- DPDK is missing a bug tracker or to-do item list. It will be discussed in next meeting. 3. Next Meeting --------------- As per alphabetical order, Jan Blunck will chair next meeting. He will poll for the date and time of next meeting. Regards, Hemant
