2021-03-31 ZLC Agenda

Peter F has conflict for today 

1) We have gotten back to BMC regarding Workflow WiZard incubator - small meeting planned for next week to get the ball moving on next steps. I 
have recommended we hold off announcing anything until we are better prepared for questions/positioning, etc. Mike D will be 
focal point - please direct any questions/issues to him. (We will draft a checklist of items to consider for bringing them on.) 
For now we will consider them a separate squad until we figure out their roadmap. 

2) Joe and I had interesting call with large UK bank this morning - audience was mix of "hard core" ISPF users and some 
"next gen" sysprogs. Their PCs are very locked down so CLI and Zowe Explorer did not resonate with ISPF advocates - there is 
interest in CLI on USS. What is our position on CLI on USS? 

3) Reminder April 21 OMP Zowe webinar - Rose do you have what you need? Do we need to drive up registation?

4) PI Planning - kickoff April 6 9am call. Many thanks to Jakub to get is started considering themes - I ASSUME current ZLC will 
still want to provide a "point of view" on priorities? Do we want a working session to discuss?

5) Hostbridge has asked for Zowe overview - Joe and Bruce to cover tomorrow - this is separate thread from Redis discussion Redis
call now moved to April 7th 

6) Any topics from the TSC? (Last week we learned 10 students interested in mentorships) FYI - IBM to pitch Zowe to another set of 
new hire developers in April - possible additional contributors. 

7) Mark - you tried to get a meeting together last week on Zowe infrastructure requirements for 2021 - proposed list to the Systems Team 
- items to be and discussed with Marist and OMP. Did you want to try again or has the team already taken forward? 

8) Some trival - what is the signifcance of the number 8958 (23,214)? Hint: https://docs.zowe.org/stable/appendix/tpsr.html 


Any other topics? 

Future follow ups 
- ZLC, TSC and Principles charter - next up for rework - final TSC charter? 
- Support Conformance Criteria - discussion started - draft docs need another round of discussion before wider review
