 +  * Burden on a small number of SMEs as was also highlighted in other email threads 
 +  * Should be more clear on the areas where we need resources will help our members and the broader community find the right people to have involved

 +      * Maybe OSGI/Karaf people to help with platform issues you see on ODL or ONOS 
 +    * People who are in telco operations who are actively deploying applications today and can provide feedback  
 +    * Testing competencies,​ with broad experience in testing for application deployment scenarios 
 +    * Collaboration with SDOs 
 +  * More resource on training and on-boarding ​is needed (both for new developers & users) 
 +    * Better project information/​dashboard will be helpful for people that are new to the project 
 ===Project Management=== ===Project Management===
 +  * Scope management
 +    * Within 2 months of project launch, there was a relatively clear idea of the Arno scope. ​ This reduction in scope was a contributing factor in being able to deliver. ​
 +    * The communication of the Arno scope after the decision was made could have been better
 +    * Not having a clear idea of the resources available made it very difficult to manage the risk of the scope
 +  * There was not a change management process for decision making during Arno and better communication could have reduced friction
 +    * On change management, there'​s a need to be wary of imposing too much top-down control/​benediction of project leaders vs allowing leaders to arise organically as we grow as a community.
 +  * A structured approach to using Jira would be helpful in coordinating community efforts
 +  * Schedule
 +    * Additional effort is needed to address risk mitigation when making our plans
 +    * Successful time-based projects manage releases by gating early on feature readiness and gating early
 +    * Establishing clear milestones and being concise on the meaning of those milestones and qualitifcations will be important
 +    * Individual projects will have their own timeline that may or may not coincide with a time-based release activity. ​ We need to be clear on the correlation between release and content.
