The typical IP Policy for Projects under the LF Edge Foundation is Apache 2.0 for Code Contributions, Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) for new inbound contributions, and Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License for Documentation. Projects under outside licenses may still submit for consideration, subject to review/approval of the TAC and Board.

  • The Akraino project has an "upstream first" policy. All Akraino Blueprints and Feature projects that contribute to upstream projects must complete the Upstream Dependency Matrix. The tables should be completed at project induction time (for new projects) and refreshed at release time (for existing projects). As of R4 and onward (Releases), in order to build a "stable Release" is a release which Downstream and Community can rebuild after a certain long period of time), Upstream will need to specify upstream repositories completely and with corresponding version/branch information. The list of each Blueprint Upstream Dependendency Matrix and Upstream Project information can be viewed at: https://wiki.akraino.org/display/AK/Upstream+Dependency+Matrix+and+Upstream+Project+Information?src=contextnavpagetreemode

Upon acceptance, At Large projects must list their status prominently on website/readme

 Meets

The previously reported undertakings for high-level co-operation between some of the Akraino Blueprints as e.g. ELIOT and EdgeX Foundry remains.   The above also applies for the interaction/use of LF Edge EVE and Fledge (e.g. Akraino Blueprint IoT Camera maintenance Blueprint). The  The initiated by the Akraino API TSC Sub-committee work on assessing the room for potential co-operation among Akraino Blueprints and Development Projects remains and it is also set as part of the Akraino inter-operability Strategy Goals for 2024. Nevertheless, it is important to also explicitly state, that the Business Objectives and prioroties are set by (and within the Companies that had submitted and drive the Blueprints and respectively allocate their internal resources and set the related Budget for those resources to participate).

Intention for the upcoming year (Remain at current stage OR advance towards the next Stage)

The discussion outlining the priorities for R8 are set on the Agenda of the Akraino Spring 2023 Technical meeting. The scope for future work of Akraino API Sub-committee for Blueprints inter-operability and Akraino Security Sub-committe objective for automation between Akraino Security and Bluval (Blueprint Validation) process for 2023 is also part of the Akraino Spring 2023 Technical meeting.


Include a link to your project’s CommunityBridge Insights page. We will be looking for signs of consistent or increasing contribution activity. Please feel free to add commentary to add color to the numbers and graphs we will see on Insights.

How many maintainers do you have, and which organizations are they from? (Feel free to link to an existing MAINTAINERS file if appropriate.)

Maintainers are at Akraino Blueprint and Development project level and therein varies accordingly. You can monitor and follow through the LFX Insights - https://insights.lfx.linuxfoundation.org/projects/lfedge%2Fakraino-edge-stack/dashboard
What do you know about adoption, and how has this changed since your last review / since you joined the current Stage? If you can list companies that are end users of your project, please do so. (Feel free to link to an existing ADOPTERS file if appropriate.)This again varies among Akraino Blueprints and Development projects. Please see at LFX Insights - https://insights.lfx.linuxfoundation.org/projects/lfedge%2Fakraino-edge-stack/dashboard
How has the project performed against its goals since the last review? (We won't penalize you if your goals changed for good reasons.)The targets in terms of Blueprints evolvement/maturity via the above indicated 4 (four phases, "Archived" phase not included/counted) and to add new 2 new Blueprints/Development projects.
What are the current goals of the project? For example, are you working on major new features? Or are you concentrating on adoption or documentation?The focus is on the coming Akraino R8/9 and outlining the type and use of Edge AI for 2024. Here is the plan of 2024 - https://wiki.akraino.org/display/AK/2024+activity?preview=/100827169/100827172/akraino_2024_activity.pdf
How can LF Edge help you achieve your upcoming goals?LF Edge can provide an insight on synergy between existing Technology Architecture Specifications from various SDOs and Open Source Communities, e.g. 3GPP, , ETSI MEC, TM Forum ODA LF ONAP, LFN Anuket, ONAP, CNCF, O-RAN Alliance, Digital Twins Consortium, IoT, etc.,  and identify a Common Architecture Framework that  all LF Edge Projects can follow and through compliance to that Common Architecture Framework achieve and inter-operatibility and scalability among the LF Edge Projects.
Do you think that your project meets the criteria for the next Stage?Yes.
Please summarize Outreach Activities in which the Project has participated in (e.g. Participation in conferences, seminars, speaking engagements, meetups, etc.)Participation at various Conferences as ONES, OCP summit and Edge Computing World and varios guest speakers from various Companies and SDOs as ETSI MEC, ETSI NFV, Fujitsu, Equinix, ARM, Signalogic, CNCF TUG etc.,
