Hi all,
Below is some WR material on terminology that I would like to put forth as draft terminology guidelines for consideration by the group.
Maarten
Guidance
- use inclusive language in documentation to support a diverse audience and to avoid distracting terminology.
- when a biased term in project is encountered, notify the TSC for remediation
- if there is risk that the replacement term is unclear to the audience, you can mention the industry-standard term verbally (for now), but not in writing. E.g.: “Open box testing (also known white-box testing) is a method of software testing that tests internal structures or workings of an application, as opposed to its functionality.”
- do not use the below biased terms in your documentation; use the provided replacement terms.
Biased term

black-box testing
closed box testing

Subject: OpenAMP mailing lists: only some mail is getting through
[BCC all individuals who are subscribed to tsc, openamp-rp, app-services, system-dt & board members]
Hi all,
Due to a change at AWS, lists.openampproject.org, lists.trustedfirmware.org, op-lists.linaro.org have broken. Since the OpenAMP lists are pretty low traffic, I was hoping this would resolve quickly and had initially just notified the list owners. However, the disruption doesn't seem to be resolved yet, so I figured I should notify all list members, in case anyone is trying to send to the lists.
Some of the mail does seem to be getting through (I saw Arnaud's emails today to openamp-rp). If you sent something recently, please check the archives to know if it got through:
TSC archives: http://lists.openampproject.org/pipermail/tsc/
Openamp-rp archives: http://lists.openampproject.org/pipermail/openamp-rp/
App-services archives: http://lists.openampproject.org/pipermail/app-services/
System-dt archives: http://lists.openampproject.org/pipermail/system-dt/
Linaro IT have filed tickets with AWS and the latest status can be found at:
https://dash.linaro.org/
Until the issue is resolved, if you need help getting a message through, please let me know.
Best regards,
Nathalie
Hi all,
Please let us know if you have suggestions for agenda topics. Here is what I have collected so far:
* Brief update on OpenAMP System Reference (end-to-end example)
* Any special topics to discuss, or presentations to highlight, going into LVC21F? (https://events.pinetool.ai/2231/#sessions )
* Next steps on replacing master/slave terms in OpenAMP repos
* Continue to chip away at remaining governance topics on https://www.openampproject.org/governance
Remaining action items from last time:
* Define the use cases for replacing master/slave terms and post to TSC list for further discussion
* @maarten.koning@windriver.com<mailto:maarten.koning@windriver.com>: app-services use cases for master/slave
* @Bill Mills<mailto:bill.mills@linaro.org>: Lower-level use cases for master/slave
Notes and link to recording from previous call can be found at https://github.com/OpenAMP/open-amp/wiki/TSC-Meeting-Notes-2021#20210721
Mailing list info, archives, (un)subscribe, personal config can be found at: https://lists.openampproject.org/mailman/listinfo/tsc
Thanks & regards,
Nathalie
