Re: Proposal TAG Sustainability
I agree with the points Huamin raised, especially on "Incubate technology stacks towards green computing"!

Sorry for the spam, just saw that I skipped Wojtek answer. I would be absolutely in for that and I'm pretty sure we can sponsor something for this like cold drinks :) But before that, I would love to have a virtual kick-off assuming that some people can't make it to Valencia, and I would like to include everyone who is interested.

Hello Chris,
thank you for your feedback. We addressed this in the proposal as well in the TOC meeting. We don't want to reinvent the wheel, but more over collect and aggregate on the one hand, and being a bridge or accelerator for the different CN projects on the other hand. Working with GSF, as well as other initiatives, will be one core part of the WG.
Best Max
Hi folks,
This is my first ever CNCF email, as a newbie - and I wanted to clarify how this works regarding another Linux Foundation project, the Green Software Foundation: Green
Software Foundation | GSF
I can see some folks have raised a similar question - some of the items in the vision and responsibilities are clearly different from the GSF, but some overlap.
That might be ok, but flagging now.
Thanks,
Chris.

Sounds great! I'm in! Where do I sign? 😉
In terms of the next steps - I assume that we have to split who does what and we could start by brainstorming ideas on how to answer the questions posed in your 1-3 points (surveys? outreach? etc.)
I thought that if you will be joining KubeCon EU in May we might try to arrange a meeting just to get to know each other. WDYT?
Before that happens, catching up once a month or two weeks would be good.

Hello all,
thank you for having me at the TOC meeting yesterday and for the chance as well as the discussion on our proposal.
As a result of yesterday's discussion I first would like to put a renaming into the room:
"Environmental Conservation WG"
Following the recommendation, we would start as a working group also we see that there are a lot of jobs to be done, to oversight any project is at this time not part of it/too early and therefore not suitable for a TAG. Might change in the future.
Some of the initial task I see:
- craft a team for the WG (I got already a couple of private messages and notes of interest)
- scoping the activities - as mentioned in the meeting we see many dimensions, possibilities and ways of acting. an output here can be a kind of roadmap as well as a cloud native environmental impact map (work in this direction is generally done and need
some CN spicing)
- depending on the size of the team as well as the scoped activities, I would like to have the WG being active actually in to three directions
- 1. towards the CNCF projects - did they worked already on something for improving their environment footprint? what are the problems they see? what is needed to overcome potential issues? etc.
- 2. towards the enduser - as mentioned a key for this topic is awareness, and the our enduser are one/some of the strongest multiplicators. What are their current state? How OSS can help? Can we include this topic to the CNCF survey?
- 3. bridging existing foundations and project - there are many initiatives out there, how we can bring them to our community? where we have a common sense? what is difficult for them to grow adoption? Lets learn from each other and be a vehicle for existing
implementations/researches etc.
Sorry for the long email. I'm looking forward to your feedback, and your guidance to get the things started :)

Re: Proposal TAG Sustainability

Chen Wang
Thanks, Huamin, for the concrete steps to start.
Hi, All, should we start with creating a channel under CNCF?
Thanks, Chen
|
|
Re: Proposal TAG Sustainability
Along that line, I would suggest the following early initiatives:
- Establish a sustainability methodology and best practice. There are abundant experiences and expertise across CNCF WGs and projects we can leverage. A highly fluid communication channel is needed to get this started. - Incubate technology stacks towards green computing. I have been working with great minds across the industry on this topic, this is a very exciting area for innovations. - Collaborate with ecosystems such as Green Software Foundation. Since Chris is with GSF, this is a good start.
Cheers!

[cncf-tag-security] RFC: Cloud Native Security Whitepaper v2 ends April 27

Chris Aniszczyk
FYI ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: <pushkarj.at.work@...>Date: Wed, Apr 6, 2022 at 2:26 PM Subject: [cncf-tag-security] RFC: Cloud Native Security Whitepaper v2 ends April 27 To: < cncf-tag-security@...> Hello Security Enthusiasts!
CNCF Security TAG is looking to embark on another cloud native security adventure! After the ravishing success of Cloud Native Security Whitepaper v1 back in Nov 2020, we have now refreshed the paper ready to be published around KubeCon EU 2022 (fingers crossed). To make this possible and deliver quality content, We'd like some help.
We want you!
This is where you (yes you!) come in. We're looking for community members and colleagues to review version 2 of the paper: Google Doc: Open for comment, tracked under Tracking issue: 747, to provide the cloud native community with reference material that is peer reviewed and reflects the realities of cloud native security as of today. We hope you can join us on this significant contribution opportunity. Public Request For Comment period ends on April 27 2022 (3 weeks from now)
Ready to dive in?
Reminder: Please be excellent to each other when providing feedback!
Last but not the least, share it with your friends and colleagues regardless of their security or cloud native expertise. For any questions, that can not be discussed on the Google doc or Github issue, please reach out to us on tag-security-whitepaper channel in CNCF slack workspace.

thank you for having me at the TOC meeting yesterday and for the chance as well as the discussion on our proposal. As a result of yesterday's discussion I first would like to put a renaming into the room: "Environmental Conservation WG"
Following the recommendation, we would start as a working group also we see that there are a lot of jobs to be done, to oversight any project is at this time not part of it/too early and therefore not suitable for a TAG. Might change in the future.
Some of the initial task I see: - craft a team for the WG (I got already a couple of private messages and notes of interest)
- scoping the activities - as mentioned in the meeting we see many dimensions, possibilities and ways of acting. an output here can be a kind of roadmap as well as a cloud native environmental impact map (work in this direction is generally done and need some CN spicing)
- depending on the size of the team as well as the scoped activities, I would like to have the WG being active actually in to three directions
- 1. towards the CNCF projects - did they worked already on something for improving their environment footprint? what are the problems they see? what is needed to overcome potential issues? etc.
- 2. towards the enduser - as mentioned a key for this topic is awareness, and the our enduser are one/some of the strongest multiplicators. What are their current state? How OSS can help? Can we include this topic to the CNCF survey?
- 3. bridging existing foundations and project - there are many initiatives out there, how we can bring them to our community? where we have a common sense? what is difficult for them to grow adoption? Lets learn from each other and be a vehicle for existing implementations/researches etc.
Sorry for the long email. I'm looking forward to your feedback, and your guidance to get the things started :)

Dear TOC,
we would like to propose you a new TAG.
Sustainability is a growing and important topic and can be done effectively only if everyone delivers their part to it. The data centers' global energy consumption, and therefore the reason for CO2 emission, is around 2%. That maybe doesn't sound a lot but is equivalent to Canada or Germany, and is also bigger than the emissions caused by airplanes.
At the same time, open source gets relevant momentum and can be found in many system implementations or is the foundation modern systems are built on. That's why we would like to propose you the TAG Sustainability. We as a community can lay the foundation for sustainable software, sustainable open source projects and best practices to deliver our part for a positive change in the future.
