Abdul Wahid is still checking this issue. Any updates? ongoing - will be started in August New release features are updated for K release. K Release OAI team is working on uplink response. Will start coordinating with them after this implementation for E2E call flow. INT bimo fransiscus asisi Question: How can we help to update this page? Discussed simplifying the NTUST INT lab with OAI UE sim Do we still need OTF (open test Framework)? Maybe start INT meetings at a regular cadence. Wait for Slack to start an INT channel to have more realtime communications O-DU high - low integration experiment options Done by OAI: OAI UE + OAI DU LOW + nFAPI（socket）+ OAI DU HIGH OAI Branch: nfapi-fixes-ntust Status: E2E is done OAI UE + O-RU + OAI DU LOW + nFAPI（socket） + OAI DU HIGH + OAI CU OAI Branch: nfapi-fixes-rebased-demo Status: E2E is done Ongoing: Option 1 - OAI UE + OAI DU LOW + nFAPI（socket） + OSC DU HIGH OAI Branch: o-du-l2 Status: UE can receive SIB 1 and send RA Option 2 - OAI UE + OAI DU LOW + FAPI（WLS） + OSC DU HIGH (on-going by EURECOM and Radisys) OAI Branch: nfapi-wls-integration Status: fixing DCI problem Option 3 - UE + RU + FlexRAN DU LOW + xFAPI + OSC DU HIGH (or, OAI DU HIGH) O-DU-high - O-DU-low integration will be focused in the next step idea: to bring it to the ToC
10min	Software release procedure	Martin Skorupski	The importance of developer guides and software release processes: Clear structure process will reduce efforts in the code contribution process and will leads to world wide know and understood processes. This way, it is also easier to get contributions from developers any developer anywhere. Well defined process and pipelines will avoid adding problematic software artifacts into releases. On the O-RAN-SC wiki we have some Developer guides, which the different teams should follow: https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ORAN/Project+Developer+Wiki LF itself has nice pages and training: https://training.linuxfoundation.org/training/beginners-guide-open-source-software-development/ https://www.linuxfoundation.org/resources/open-source-guides https://training.linuxfoundation.org/training/creating-effective-documentation-for-developers-lfc112/ Please have a look - and correct or make us aware of misleading or outdated statements. updates for new release should follow concepts of previous releases or should changes and concepts should be better documented upgrade procedures could help

10min	OSC integration use case	@all	target: drive collaboration integration use case across o-ran-sc projects have a look at the MVP use cases - as inspiration MVP might be not the target int - focus on pairwise testing to focus on feature implementation by the projects
