Conformance Questionnaire Development Process
shanecoughlan opened this issue · comments
The conformance questionnaire for OpenChain Specification 2.0 was developed and deployed largely by a small team, particularly @goneall , and moving forward to OpenChain Specification 2.1 (ISO version of 2.0) it would be useful to ensure the workload is more widely distributed. Adding @MarkGisi to this thread.
Proposal:
(1) We move editing of the questionnaire into the Spec review calls (bi-weekly, second and fourth Monday each month, 9am and 5pm Pacific respectively).
(2) We seek to have the questionnaire ready by September 15th 2020 to allow time to get it live before the expected September 22nd 2020 ISO completion date.

Agree - this seems to be a good forum for editing, discussion and review
(2) We seek to have the questionnaire ready by September 15th 2020 to allow time to get it live before the expected September 22nd 2020 ISO completion date.
This would depend on the agenda and bandwidth of the Spec review calls @shanecoughlan and @MarkGisi I'll leave this up to you
We could use pull requests against the questionnaire JSON files as the mechanisms for doing the actual edits. I can go over the mechanics of this on one of the upcoming spec calls.
I can think of 2 approaches using the Spec review call:
- Review and update the questionnaire online during the review call itself
- Go over the mechanics of updating the questionnaire on one of the calls and ask for volunteers to review and update specific sections as pull requests. You could then review the PR's either on the call or prior to the call and close/merge once aproved.
@MarkGisi I'll leave this up to you if you agree to include it in the Spec review call.
