- Repositories created in edgexfoundry require the majority approval of the TSC as these are considered repositories of artifacts that EdgeX must manage, maintain and otherwise actively administer with the support of the Linux Foundation. New repositories in this organization are created with a request sent through support.linuxfoundation.org (the Linux Foundation’s IT project support system) and must contain the github id of the “owner” and a list of github IDs for the original committers (all approved by the TSC). The owner should be a WG chair. The request for a new repository must also include a reference to the TSC approval (example: link to the meeting minutes containing the approval). Any modification to the repositories (updates on name, deletion, archival, membership changes, or additional administrative changes) require TSC majority approval. The request for any change to the repository must be made through the LF support system and include a reference to the TSC approval.
- Repositories created in edgexfoundry-holding require the approval of any single TSC member. Repositories in this organization are also created with a request sent through support.linuxfoundation.org and must contain the github id of the “owner” and a list of github IDs for the original committers. The owner is the TSC member requesting the holding repository. The request for a new repository should contain a link to this policy for approval. Any modification to the repositories (updates on name, deletion, archival, membership changes, or additional administrative changes) require the repository owner’s approval (not TSC approval). The request for any change to the repository must be made through the LF support system and should contain a link to this policy for approval.
Moving repository from edgexfoundry-holding to edgexfoundry
When a repository is ready to be moved from holding to the edgexfoundry Github org, the following process should be followed (as approved in the Nov 2019 F2F meeting):
1) the requestor should petition the associated working group through the working group chairman for review and approval to move the repository out of holding.
2) the chairman of the working group will request a review and hold a vote of the work group to move the repository out of holding
3) the workgroup chairman will request the TSC chairman or vice chairman to put the move to a TSC vote at the next available meeting (this should be done byTSC emailer so as to allow maximum distribution and notification of the review)
4) the TSC meeting will inform the TSC of the requested move and an email vote will occur after the meeting. Approval by majority of the TSC is required to move the repository from holding to edgexfoundry organization.
