Hi all,
Parallel to the source code org/repo location discussion, we should
start discussing the details of the collaboration effort. We have put
together a list of OSG packages that require Globus and which Globus
packages we require here
<https://jira.opensciencegrid.org/browse/SOFTWARE-2887?focusedCommentId=346471&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-346471>.
Are there similar EGI/WLCG/etc lists so we can find where we can split
the support load?
For all the shared items we'll need to decide on the ownership model.
Here are some ideas:
- Single-owner: there has been a suggestion where the "owner" of the
piece of software would rotate amongst the various orgs where the
"owner" would be responsible for support, development, and releases.
We'd have to have some sort of system in place for critical/intensive
issues where other organizations could be called on for assistance.
- Multi-owner model: Since I imagine most issues will originate from
within each orgs already established support channels, the org that gets
the issue owns the development for it (with the ability to pull in other
orgs for critical/intensive issues). Then the development, testing, and
release all have to be signed off by each collaborative organization.
- Some combination of the above
- Something else entirely
Support, documentation, testing, and release strategies will likely flow
from the ownership model we choose.
