Draft OGF Structure

OGF Structure as defined in GFD.2

  • working groups (produce documents) * chartered w/ milestones, somewhat defined lifetime * chairs (2/3) * secretary (opt) * members (whoever is on mailing list)
  • research groups (may produce documents) * chairs / secretary / members * vaguagly chartered * indefinite lifetime * may spawn WG
  • community groups * chairs / secretary / members * indefinite lifetime * represent community input to drive WGs/RGs
  • area * collection of WGs and RGs by topic * structure of areas are up to GFSG * area directors are (usually) assigned to areas, overseeing 1 or 2 groups each

Proposed Amendments

  • areas are static, not a good match for group topics, very different sizes/activities * no static areas, but tags to groups * DRMAA: API, Compute * OCCI: Cloud, Compute * GLUE: Infrastructure, Compute, Data, Networking * assign ADs to explicit set of groups, according to their specialization / experience
  • feedback between CG and RG/WG not functional, no active CGs left * focus CGs around short living efforts (plug feasts, workshops, implementations, OGF events, ...) * very low overhead of forming and disbanding(!) CGs
  • RG/WG structure seems to work ok * weed out dead groups
