OSC Project roundup:

News from OSC TOC & OSFG & RSAC calls last week

  • TOC: 

    • https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/wiki/display/TOC/#ORANSCTechnicalOversightCommittee(TOC)

    • Last week's TOC (Thursday):

      • David mentioned that he will bring a proposal to TOC (this week) about re-badging some SMO-related OSC 

        • Discussed here as follow-up ....

          • Current focus on deployment & integration

            • Current work in OSC it/dep uses OOM, but do not change OOM charts scripts. ("with" OOM, not "in" OOM)

              • Currently OOM service mesh & security is disabled (in OSC SMO deployment deployment). If turned on, would OSC function become secure? Unlikely - current extensions are outside of mesh 

            • Unclear of the benefit.. need alot more clarity. 

          • @Sridhar Rao explained the difference between OSC as a project in LF, vs OSC as a project in LFN foundation. 

            • Main difference is governance & legal particulars & representation.   

            • Could reuse more infrastructure in LFN & should reduce cost.

              • Current infrastructure very similar to LFN infra. 

            • Should not be a need to rename alot, e.g. paths, repos, etc. 

              • May need to move wiki & jira  to lfn-xxxx - hopefully not. 

          • Any transition would likely take 6 months +

      • David wants much better attendance/representation at TOC & RSAC calls. 

        • PTLs should make themselves available for a short update when requested. 

      • May need some changes in OSC & OSFG charters. TOC members are requested to be available for F2F meetings. 

      • Updates / Plans / Proposal on how to revamp O-RAN opensource are ongoing - Should be updates at the O-RAN F2F

        • See OSFG below

      • Need to update Release M (RSAC) & M-Release (Releases) pages ASAP. 

    • This week's TOC (Thursday):

  • OSFG: (@Martin Skorupski)

    • OSFG meetings (August):

      • Agenda, Minutes, etc : https://oranalliance.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OSFG/pages/2292154442/OSFG+Meeting+Minutes  (Access restricted to O-RAN members/contributors)  

      • SCCL still in progress 

        • Still working through the outcomes & preparing a proposal/feedback to O-RAN EC.  

        • Discussions will continue before & during F2F OSFG 

      • OSFG has requested 3 sessions - including demos & revamp discussions. 

      • WG11 have asked OSFG to enforce a requirement to OSC to change messaging / positioning of OSC wrt quality/security of OSC code 

        • Ref: OSC's CVE handing procedure

        • Ref: OSC website: https://o-ran-sc.org/ 

        • Ref: OSC wiki: O-RAN SC

    • Discussion moved to RSAC 

      • No Update this week

  • Missing Docker base images  (@John Keeney (Ericsson EST)) :

    • Lots of jenkins jobs building/verify docker images where there is a dependency on JDK 17 base images. e.g. openjdk:17-jdk

      • These JDK base images have disappeared. Any possibility of OSC nexus taking a copy? e.g. ONAP maintains a JDK17 base image. 

        • Seems best option is to use amazoncorretto:17.0.17 or eclipse-temurin:17-jdk or similar. Means alot of changes

    • Similarly lots of bitnami images have been disappearing recently. 

    • Issue only happen when building. Existing images will have (disappeared) base image included, so released/built images should still be OK. 

  • Winlab servers (OSC Test lab) (@Martin Skorupski, @Ivan Seskar)

    • No update. All good for now

  • OpenFH MPlane (@Sridhar Rao)

    • Will come back to this topic later in the year. Park for now. 

  • Experimenting with O2-IMS & Nephio (@Sridhar Rao@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) & @Vishal Varvate)

    • No update. Will drop off agenda for now.
