Release Management (Tanja de Groot )

• Release Management team has declared Spring25 M4 on March 18.

  • All Sub Projects have provided their public API release. See: Meta-release Spring25

    • 13 new APIs (in 10 repositories (2 from Fall24)): BlockchainPublicAddress, DeviceStatus, CustomerInsights, DeviceIdentifier, DeviceSwap, KnowYourCustomer, Tenure, NumberRecycling, RegionDeviceCount, WebRTC

    • 23 updated Fall24 APIs (of 25, in 11 repositories): ConnectivityInsights, CallForwardingSignal, CarrierBillingCheckout, DeviceStatus, DeviceLocation, KnowYourCustomer, NumberVerification, OTPValidation, PopulationDensityData, QualityOnDemand, SimSwap

    • The Spring25 meta-release has a total of 36 APIs in 19 API repositories

  • For stable APIs, test statement of at least one API implementer is part of the API readiness checklist. For the 6 8 stable APIs:

    • 4 6 have provided partial API test statements: code generation was successful, but the test feature files have not yet been used (DeviceLocation, DeviceStatus, QualityOnDemand, SimSwap)

    • 2 APIs have not provided any test statement yet (NumberVerification, OTPValidation).

• Release management proposes to TSC that an exception is applied for this meta-release, as, due to delays in schedule, limited time was available to do actual testing. The risk on problems with these APIs is expected to be low because:

  • 4 of the stable APIs were already stable in Fall24 (DeviceLocation, NumberVerification, OTPValidation, SimSwap), so low risk.

  • 2 4 new stable APIs (DeviceStatus, QualityOnDemand) have partial test statements and are expected to be tested as soon as the test support for feature files has been put in place.

  • Release management has asked the Sub Projects to keep the test statement issues open for some time to gather more information and give credibility to the stability of the APIs.

• Request to TSC to declare Spring25 M5 - meta-release milestone

  • Proposal accepted and M5 declared: Supported by TSC

  • We have had discussion about GSMA certification for Number Verification 2.0 - This point requires additional discussion between CAMARA and GSMA about minimal scope required for certification (Does only one flow authCode or CIBA is just good enough or do we mandate both flows?).

API Backlog (Jorge Garcia Hospital)

• Update on voting results (mail to TSC to be added heresee also https://lists.camaraproject.org/g/tsc/message/276 ): The TSC approved with their votes the creation of ConsentInfo, IoT Network Optimization, and Dynamic Predictive Connectivity Data

  • Consent Info API (API Onboarding tracker) - repository already created: ConsentInfo

  • IoT Network Optimization (API Onboarding tracker)

  • Dynamic Predictive Connectivity Data (API Onboarding tracker)

• One new API proposed: eSIM Remote Management

  • (See message from Jorge Garcia Hospital with proposal for eSIM Remote Management)

  • Supported by China Unicom, original issue, eSIM Remote Management template

  • Decision: OK to move forward.

• Note: Network Health Assessment & Network Traffic Analysis proposals, reviewed during previous TSC and with pending comments to be solved are still under fix.

• API descriptions to be updated according to Spring25 release (version and content, if applies).

  • Especially needed is an update for NumberVerification 2.0.0 in r2.4

Commonalities (Rafal Artych )

• Started draft PR https://github.com/camaraproject/Commonalities/pull/430

  • removed redundant, descriptive texts and reordered content → CAMARA API Design Guide.md

  • dedicated subscription guidelines → CAMARA API Event Subscription and Notification.md

• Discussions in https://github.com/camaraproject/tooling/discussions

Identity & Consent Management (Axel Nennker )

• https://github.com/camaraproject/IdentityAndConsentManagement/issues/275

  • issued were labeled fall25 Thanks Jesús Peña García-Oliva

• https://github.com/camaraproject/ConsentInfo/

  • Repository was created and work started.

  • Consent Info API PR https://github.com/camaraproject/ConsentInfo/pull/4

• https://github.com/camaraproject/IdentityAndConsentManagement/pull/268

Any Other Business

• Request for TSC to poll API authors (Kevin Smith)

  • what environment(s) they use to edit APIs

  • what challenges they experience in the API production lifecycle

The purpose is to help the Tooling repository produce the most useful and useable tools.

• Marketing consideration for September release as Open Source Summit Europe occurs end of August - do we want to target this date?

  Not sure…

  • Herbert Damker we might need to identify another appropriate event for the announcement of Fall25 meta-release, as otherwise too many activities of the release cycle would happen in the vacation time and there would be again not enough time for testing of the release candidates. M5 target date is currently September 15th.
