      • see links created by Kevin in RM chat here: https://camara-project.slack.com/archives/C090WU7PL9Y/p1757343252252089

      • 22 API repositories have been released

      • 17 API repositories have been reviewed by Release Management

        • are there any review with big issues ? No

      • 1 API repository review is in progress by Release Management (ApplicationEndpointRegistration)

      • ScamSignal API to be done as well. @Tanja de Groot

    • M4 declaration: approval of M4 in the September 16 Release Management meeting: will be reported in the TSC on Sep 18 - Fall25 meta-release page will be updated for thursday; CAMARA home page will be updated after the synch meeting with GSMA on friday. draft PR will be prepared already by @Herbert Damker

      • updates on the CAMARA website are being applied “on the fly”.

      • ScamSignal API

        • should update ScamSignal API version to v0.3.1 @Herbert Damker to update the link.

          • CAMARA Project has a footnote: “(2) One additional API, Scam Signal (v0.3.0), was released following the Spring25 meta-release guidelines. This API is developed by and only available on demand through GSMA Open Gateway. For more information, please see the Scam Signal API description.”

        • the note 2 also wrongly mentions already “Fall25” for ScamSignal v0.3.0. this should “Spring25” - maybe not needed to correct this now ?

  • Commonalities 3.4 M4 review

    • Release Management team proposed that @Rafal Artych discusses with the Commonalities team0:

      • Do the Commonalities patch release after Fall25 M4. so APIs will only refer to r3.3 in the meta-release

      • Once the Commonalities patch is released, if an API patch release is done, it should include refer to r3.4.

      • Feedback: no issue to delay after Fall25 M5

M5

  • M5 date: target is declaration in the TSC meeting on September 18.

  • Marketing target event - proposed: Webinar on e.g. Oct 9. Press release a week before.

 

Spring26 meta-release (https://lf-camaraproject.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AQB_Cg)

  • Commonalities and ICM are preparing content for Spring26

    • Request to consider to change the M1 date for Commonalities, and more generally make a new time plan for the meta-release based on the new approach by M0.

    • Proposal to be prepared by Release Mgmt team for discussion with Commonalities / ICM and in next TSC end of september

@Tanja de Groot to do the Scam Signal review - review done - awaiting merge and release creation.
@Tanja de Groot to prepare the Fall25 meta-release page
@Herbert Damker prepare the draft PR to update the CAMARA home page. The actual update will be done after the synch meeting with GSMA on API categories on friday Sep 19.
@Herbert Damker to update the note 2 under the API table on the CAMARA homepage correcting the verison of ScamSignal to v0.3.1 once the release is available (Tanja to ping Herbert on that). The note 2 also wrongly mentions already “Fall25” for ScamSignal v0.3.0. This should have been “Spring25” - Herbert to decide if to correct this.
