• Andrew asked about MVP re: Incubation - MVP as an "outcome" - doesn't seem right 
• instead, it should say something like During incubation, an MVP-quality product will be demonstrated (Alpha).
• discussion on Alpha/Beta/GA vs. Incubation/Mature/Core ensued 
• we agreed on the following revised wording in section 3.3.4 (Project Lifecycle States and Reviews) of the TCD… Incubation
  • Project has resources, but is recognized to be in the early stages of development.  In the Incubation state, the goal is to progress the project from Alpha (MVP) quality to Beta quality.  The outcome is a minimum viable product (MVP) that demonstrates the value of the project and is a useful vehicle for collecting feedback, but is not expected to be used in production environments.
• Mature
  • Project is fully functioning and stable, has achieved successful releases.  In the Mature state, the goal is to progress the project from Beta quality to GA quality.  
    
  Core
  • Project provides value to and receives interest from a broad audience.  In the Core state, the project is at GA quality – additional functionality may be added in subsequent releases.
    
  Archived
  
  • Project can reach Archived state for multiple reasons.  Either project has successfully been completed and its artifacts provide business values, or project has been cancelled for unforeseen reasons (no value anymore, technical, etc.).  Project in any state can be Archived through a Termination Review.  In the Archived state, the project is Deprecated - no further bug fixes, security updates, etc. 
• ACTION: Bill to get this on the agenda for the next TSC meeting as well 

...

• would the project just die if there were no Committers? or would it just go On Hold?
• can you enter Incubation *then* identify Committers?
• you have to have at least 1 Committer *Company* identified
• Committers to be named up until the PTL election
• ACTION: two changes proposed to the TCD – bring to the TSC meetingindicate when Committers are to be added to a Feature Project during PTL elections, after which the project ‘starts’ 
  • section 3.2.2.1
  • Initial Committers for a project will may be specified at project creation and up until PTL election.  The project is not started until after the PTL election.indicate that a Project “starts” at the beginning of the Incubation state
    • section 3.3.4in the “Incubation” row of the table in section 3.3.4
      • Project has resources, but is recognized to be in the early stages of development. The project is considered to have started upon successful PTL election.  The outcome is a minimum viable product (MVP) that demonstrates the value of the project and is a useful vehicle for collecting feedback, but is not expected to be used in production environments.
• in terms of the content of the Feature Project Template, we questioned what is meant by ‘Akraino ready / validated’?
