Meeting Notes

Update the white paper status, TSC will vote in one/two weeks

• added more info to graphs 
• the graph of models will be modified to be mutually exclusive
• the edge enabler focus on 5G MEC (optional), but the application enabler layer is universal, and it can serve different business cases. Suggested to put a diagram in the scope of the white paper to clarify it.
• add an Acronyms list
• add references
• More people involved in the author and contributors with links to their linked web page.  If there is no style guide, we can adopt research paper style to show emails. Will send our email for opinions

Additional Notes

Whitepaper discussion

Jane -how to show attribution for authors, contributors, and acknowledgements. Options include company, e-mail, LinkedIn profile, and combinations
Jane - scope of whitepaper is 5G edge, we need to make it clear we are not describing a platform for everything
Jane - in weekly interactions with other Akraino projects, gets complaints that our WP does not address end user apps
Jeff - in scope and assumptions section, add a simple, non-detailed “landscape” diagram that shows end user applications, enablers, telco network, fixed vs. mobile access etc and then highlight what we cover
Jane - TSC review postponed 1 week
Neal - in scope & assumptions, can we align our scope with ETSI MEC, GSMA, 3GPP
General discussion about developers vs. an “edge box” described by the WP

API Portal

Jane - probably we will use apiportal.akraino.org as a subdomain entry point to a private server that hosts the portal mindmap and other HTML and JS docs.  api.akraino.org will continue to point to MobileEdgeX server for end user application developer APIs
Jane - is in discussion with Brett Preston and LF Edge IT support personnel about setting up the subdomain
