Proposed Roadmap

Create basic communication platforms
- Create a new mailing list, so IEEE P1076 WG, IEEE P1076.1 WG members or any other interested persons can enroll.
- Create a wiki for interactive data and idea collection and sharing
- Create a GitHub organization ⇒ https://github.com/VHDL
- Create a Gitter community ⇒ https://gitter.im/vhdl/Lobby
People and organizations could be grouped into:
- Existing open source projects, which want to contribute (upstream) code to a more “global” repository.
- Users who want to contribute man-power.
- Users interested in using such a new repository.
Create a list of existing open source repositories.
Discuss administrative things:
- Name for the new group
- Name for the repository / library
- Chose a license
- Coding guidelines?
Have (recorded?) Hangout meetings to:
- present existing open source projects
- discuss what could be up streamed
- discuss what needs to be developed
- discuss interfaces
Create a list of proposed packages for the new repository.
- Collect proposed packages and functions
- Include the list of proposed changes from P1076 WG
Work on unified package interfaces if multiple groups want to upstream similar functionality.
Public relations
- Get sponsors?
- Get shipped within tool chains
- Get embedded in other projects
Work towards a first release.
