 +==== Report from CIP TSC F2F meeting @ ELC-NA ====
 +
 +=== CIP SLTS kernel version alignment with other project ===
 +
 +  * Projects to be considering version alignment
 +    * LTSI/​AGL/​Debian
 +  * Tsugikazu Shibata from LTSI share his concern
 +    * Following the latest LTS is the best way to maintain (Do not cherry pick)
 +    * AI - Coordinate a f2f meeting with Greg Kroah-Hartman at OSS Japan
 +      * Gauging interest in collaborating on LTS not just between projects but with individual organisations allowing projects, organizations to focus on specific areas of expertise and need.
 +  * (Comment) MOXA has engineers, they would like to know how to join the LTS effort. Is there any document?
 +    * CIP is very similar to the LTS process, an overwhelming majority of the work is being done upstream.
 +    * The best process is to set up an ‘onboarding’ meeting with Ben 
 +      * (AI) Agustin Benito Bethencourt will try to set up something for the Taiwan timezone on Thursday (3/22) or (3/27)
 +
 +=== CIP SLTS kernel maintenance ===
 +
 +  * CIP kernel 4.4.120-cip20 released.
 +  * Latest Renesas patches under review.
 +  * Ben H. trip to DebConf sponsorship approved by CIP.
 +  * Talk about CIP kernel paper for OSSJ presented. ​
 +  * Moxa has developers to maintain CIP kernel
 +    * Has SZ Lin contacted Ben H. already? ​
 +      * Yes, but I haven'​t got reply yet
 +  * Kernel maintenance
 +    * [[https://​wiki.linuxfoundation.org/​civilinfrastructureplatform/​cipkernelmaintenance|https://​wiki.linuxfoundation.org/​civilinfrastructureplatform/​cipkernelmaintenance]] ​
 +
 +
 +
 +=== CIP Core packages ===
 +
 +  * Define set of packages to support for a 10-year time frame to help establish long term cost estimates.
 +  * By end of March each member will define a package name/set and from which version specified by package. If a package is not relevant in terms of the 10 year window do not include it. We should begin to be inclusive at the ** initial review.**
 +    * Can get an initial list from Debian packages
 +    * Debian LTS comes with restrictions on which packages work with each version
 +  * Please send package list to **cip-members**
 +
 +**.**
 +
 +=== CIP/​EdgeX ​ ===
 +
 +  * CIP is an Associate EdgeX Foundry member
 +  * Yoshi will forward **best** emails to cip-members
 +
 +=== Real-time ===
 +
 +  * Discussion with the Stable RT Group. RT Group won’t back port anything from the current mainline unless it contains something that doesn’t touch the core in any sense. The goal is to have all the versions using the same tooling. Will list missing features for old versions - establishing minimum version for features
 +
 +=== Reference board ===
 +
 +  * Aria10 is able to run with mainline kernel without additional patches
 +  * Cyclone-V
 +    * About 100 patches need to be added
 +    * AI(Hitachi):​ For CV, need to clarify which features are missing in mainline kernel
 +  * For new CIP kernel, each company can propose new boards as reference platform
 +    * Same boards for 4.4 are also acceptable
 +
 +=== Industrial communication protocol (OPC-UA) ===
 +
 +  * Future topic
 +
 +=== Update/​Upgrade strategy ===
 +
 +  * We are focused on super long term support. Consider a strategy for live updates for minor versions. Challenge is the effect of upgrade beyond the kernel. Consider estimates on cost of five 2-year upgrades vs. one 10-year upgrade. ​
 +  * 
 +
 +=== ARM64 ===
 +
 +  * Renesas will release new board in this summer.
 +
 +=== Other updates ===
