TC Meeting 2024-02-15

Agenda

Present: Cornelius, Peter, Loic

Organize onboarding of OSRD (see checklist at #28)
- Start with meeting next Thursday (2024-02-22, 14:00) with all maintainers to get to know them and decide next steps
- Use meeting to plan follow-up meetings to do the technical work of moving the repositories
- Discuss separation of repositories (upstream, downstream, downstream depends on upstream, but not the other way around)
Discuss what is needed to define requirements for project governance (#8)
- MVG is too explicit on decision making. Let that be decided by the project.
- Two levels of governance:
  - Upstream governance for technical decisions, such as merging pull request
  - Downstream governance for business decisions such as roadmap, where to allocate resources etc.
  - We need to find the right balance, so that the business stays in charge of the business decisions
- MVG section about trademarks is not needed
- The MVG steering committee is our Technical Committee
- Next step is to create a concrete governance document proposal for OpenRail Association (cornelius)
Questions from prospective member
- Peter has drafted an answer, we will make another round of review and edits and then send it to the people who asked the question
Project badges
- Loic will ask a designer to create a draft for the badges. We can start with a generic badge, maybe with different colors for the stages and later refine it, when we have finally decided on the stages and their names.
