Technical Committee Weekly Meeting 2016.06.21
Meeting time： 2016.June.21 1:00~2:00
Meeting summary：
1.Add current house rules for reference
This lists exceptions to the formal votes for various changes
in the openstack/governance repository. It corresponds to
house rules as they were proposed to the Newton membership in
our introductory meeting, with additional wording to cover
the exceptions proposed by Doug Hellmann at our last meeting.

3.Remove Packaging-Deb project team
PTL: Monty Taylor
Desc: Maintain packages for Debian (and other deb based distributions) as a community.
Status: abondoned
Reason: I proposed this because Packaging-Deb is the only official project team without any visible activity.
I'm not in favor of removing this as the project team in question is currently in the middle of good-faith effort to implement the needed things.
1) the repositories can't be moved without losing existing CI functionality, and fixing that would be a distraction.
2) this is close to getting the necessary infra support for proper CI within OpenStack.
3) this effort is deep enough that we wouldn't pursue it (or prioritize it) if the project was not official.
Agreed: grace period for Packaging-Deb extended to end of August.

4.Add 'type:horizon-plugin' tag
Define a new deliverable type tag to describe deliverables
that are specifically meant to be loaded by Horizon to provide UI for a given project.

5.Add 'level playing field' requirement
From an upstream perspective, I see us as being in the business
of providing open collaboration playing fields in order to build
projects to reach the OpenStack Mission. We collectively provide
resources (infra, horizontal teams, events...) in order to enable that open collaboration.
Require:
The new project shall provide a level and open collaboration playing field
for all contributors. The project shall not benefit a single vendor, or
a single vendors product offerings; nor advantage contributors from a
single vendor organization due to access to source code, hardware,
resources or other proprietary technology available only to those contributors.
6.Open Discussion
1) We'll have most TC members in Ann Arbor next week for the leadership training, so we'll skip that meeting.
