New Procedures in API Backlog WG meetings
A number of improvements are under discussion with leadership team of OGW project (Henry), CAMARA Project (Markus), Product Definition WS (Helene) and TSC (Herbert). As of today, the WG adopted agreements are three:
To close the agenda SEVEN DAYS BEFORE the conf. call.
In case a WG participant wants to include a point in the agenda (e.g., present a new API proposal), this participant shall ensure the corresponding issue is opened in Github by then.
Exceptional situations will be treated separately.
New schedule of conf. callsย **The meetings are to be held by Linux Foundation (Links available at GitHub and Confluence Backlog front pages)
2nd Thursday of the month (9-10:30 UTC)
4th Thursday of the month (15-16:30 UTC)
ย Send agenda to TSC mail list, to encourage more TSC member companies to join the call and provide comments when they identify APIs which are of interest for them.ย
New API proposals are included in backlog table when template PR is created, linking to the pending PR
PR will be merged as soon as ready for TSC, and should be merged before TSC review
API enhancements requires existing groupโs validation. TSC is informed accordingly to validate
Link and status in backlog table will be updated accordingly
Issue to track API onboarding will be opened once new API is confirmed in TSC.

DECISION: Approved
Recent Updates & Recap
TSC meeting 19th December:
https://github.com/camaraproject/APIBacklog/blob/main/documentation/APIbacklog.md
One new API proposals brought to TSC (1) and one new API enhancement proposal.
New API: Energy Footprint Notification:
API enhancement: Facial Recognition:
Proposed by China Mobile as part of existing ModelAsAService API repository. Original Issue #126. Template available.
The ModelAsAService Sandbox team should consider if they want to develop the API within the ModelAsAService repository or in a separate repository (e.g. to allow participation of contributors who want get only involved into the original ModelAsAService scope)
Decision: enhancement approved - target repository of this API to be decided later.
API Backlog proposal for API management/marketingโฆ:
As in APIBacklog/issues/123 , companies see a suitable feature to have a spot in each repository where participants can be reported, stating the interest of those participant companies for this API.
Current options:
CodeOwner/maintainer list: Includes companies actively leading the API definition, but not companies which participate in a more passive way.
Github contributors tool (e.g./APIBacklog/graphs/contributors ) reports the companies which have participated actively in the API, with e.g. providing code. But does not report companies who passively track the API evolution, e.g. participating in the discussion meetings.
Proposal to create a place where companies can provide their support or willingness to participate in an API, not official as maintainer/codeowner and not providing proper code as in
contributors
.Companies to provide support (or concerns) about this proposal. E.g. wiki page of each repository could host a file where companies can include their support to the API(s)
Decision: Provide a proposal to backlog group about what to be added in the confluence page to track companies supporting the API (without necessarily be code owner and/or maintainer).
Meeting update:
Create a participants / interested parties template to be included in each confluence page. Company names to be included.
Create a description of the meaning of participant (companies interested in an API, participating actively or passively in the WGโฆ)
About repository lifecycle, sandboxโฆarchived proposal will be finalized and started (before spring25).
Other topics
GSMA informed CAMARA Backlog that Open Gateway is considering certainย Drop2/3/4ย APIs that have been stuck in Backlog, โat riskโ, due to lack of support. What this means is that GSMA is pushing our MNOs to actively reconsider within the next 2 weeks if they can support them. By raising it in the Backlog meeting we increase the chance to find enough support to โreactivateโ progress.ย
Best Interconnect
IMEI Fraud API
For clarity if anyย API is not a priority for OGWย anymore at this point in time, we still expect they can progressย independently in CAMARA.
Sandbox proposal from TSC to speed-up the inclusion of new APIs into CAMARA, fostering the development of new APIs and the finalization of API scope definition.ย
(new) Backlog table information review https://github.com/camaraproject/APIBacklog/issues/123
Problem description
Current supporters field in backlog table is intended to report original participants who pushed the API proposal template in its inclusion to backlog.
As per #118 , @StefanoFalsetto-CKHIOD proposed to include current supporters in the table.
To discuss in the modification of the Supporters field:
- Or to maintain current info, it is, original supporters of the API proposal
- Or to include current supporters of the API under specification (similar to maintainers list in subgroups)
Meeting Update:
@fabrizio moggio : update developers about operators working in the API. Could be part of the readme.md of each API subgroup, valuable even before an operator have launched an API, just a list of contributors.
Proposal: Create a list of contributors? (complementing current codeowners and maintainers list) @Markus Kรผmmerle marketing team of CAMARA/GSMA

TIM | IoT Data Transfer Activation The API template is available inย PR#144 | Focused on booking resources for a non-warranted connection for IoT, group of many devices at once, during a certain period. Not directly related to QoD or HighThroughput API. @Kevin Smith posible overlap with Dedicated Network API (proposal), related to configure a network for a set of devices. To be reviewed. Issue#14 raised to discuss about posible overlap @fabrizio moggio : Proposal to include IoT API (separate repo) as part of the Dedicated Network โfamilyโ (share participants and meetings) to align use cases and definitions. @Jan Friman : this API looks like a specialization of Dedicated network API Proposal: To be proposed in the Dedicated network issue to validate Issue#14 METING UPDATE: TIM proposed an alternative approach to complement Dedicated Networks API, so that developer can manage energy modes, IoT slice selection os similar for a IOT device. @Tanja de Groot @Thorsten Lohmar proposed those features to be generic, not dedicated to IoT use cases Continue discussion with the new scope, including new API name.

KDDI | QoS Booking The API template is available inย PR#155 | Slide deck @Jorge Garcia Hospital TEF supports this API. Q: Will this API be a new repo or a new API of QoD repo? @Tanja de Groot Could QoS booking API be considered as another "variant" of the Dedicated Networks API? @Masaharu Hattori: Dedicated Network is focused on booking network resources, while QoD booking is related to book a quality session, independent to specific resources. Dev schedules just a QoD session to fulfill a required profile. @Jan Friman Dedicated Networks is handling this use cases of booking resources to fill the needs of an app, closely related to this proposal @Eric Murray proposal inherits from QoD API, but may consider a sue case overlap as booking resources. To discuss in Dedicated Network (Monday 16th 9UTC) METING UPDATE: QoS booking and current Dedicated Network APIs follow different use cases that need to be handled separately, proposal to create a separate sandbox repo to manage QoS Booking (related to QoD subproject). To be confirmed in the QoD meeting (10th January) API to be proposed in next TSC. | |

Q&A
How does CAMARA API pipeline work?
The pipeline consists of FOUR stages:
A. Submission of the API proposal.
B. Evaluation of the API proposal.
C. API proposal voting & decision.
D. Sub-Project setup.
The following clauses provides details on individual stages.
Stage A: Submission of the API proposal
Participants: API owner.
Description: The process is detailedย here. To proceed with the submission, the API owner shall follow these steps:
Fill in the template availableย hereย and save it with the following name: "APIproposal_<APIname>_<owner>. md" locally.
Create a new issue in the API Backlog Working Group repository, labeled with "API Backlog".
Upload the filled-in template toย GitHub repository folder for API proposalsย via Pull Request. This Pull Request shall be associated to the issue created in the previous step.
ย
Stage B: Evaluation of the API proposal
Participants: API owner, API backlog WG.
Description: The process is detailedย here. Upon submission, the API owner will present the proposal in the next API backlog WG meeting, to socialize it with the rest of partners. In parallel..
The WG chair checks that the template is duly filled in. Otherwise, the API owner is requested to provide missing information.
After this sanity check, each WG participant declares their support. If a company wants to become supporter of an API, then a delegate of this company needs to add the company's name in the 'supporters' column in theย API backlog table. The more support an API proposal gets, the better (it may get more traction).
When the API owner considers the API proposal is in good shape to go for approval, it informs the WG chair accordingly.
Upon receiving this information, the WG chair merges the Pull Request into the main branch, and sends the API proposal to the Technical Steering Committee (TSC) of CAMARA. This action shall be completed at least one week prior to the TSC meeting where the API proposal will be voted upon.
The whole procedure (steps 1-4) should be done within 2 regular meetings of the API Backlog WG. Nonetheless, it is up to the API owner to decide if it wants to shorten or extend this time period.
ย
Stage C: API proposal & voting decision
Participants: TSC.
Description: The process is detailedย here. Upon receiving the API proposal and notification from the API backlog WG chair, the TSC studies the proposal and votes it at the next TSC meeting.
NOTE 1: Possible decisions outcomes:
Not Accepted: The API proposal is rejected, and thus will not be included in any API Sub-Project. The TSC will need to inform the API backlog WG of this decision, and clarify next steps: either (1) remove this API proposal from backlog, with objecting companies providing justifications why; or (2) ask for changes (e.g., clarifications, corrections, gaps to be addressed) required in order for the API to be re-submitted by the API supporters.
Accepted: In this case, the TSC shall specify whether the API proposal is to be hosted by a new or existing Sub Project.
NOTE 2: The TSC may also propose changes to an API proposal and take the decision considering these changes. The TSC documents the decision in theย CAMARA API overview listย (fills in columns TSC date and TSC decision / Sub Project; in case of a No-Go "Rejected" is documented there).
ย
Stage D: Sub-Project setup
Participants: API backlog WG, TSC, CAMARA admin team
Description: If an API proposal is accepted and there is a need to open a new Sub-Project, the following steps are needed:
Supporting companies propose their initial maintainers to be added for the Sub-Project. The API backlog WG chair centralizes this information, and sends it to the TSC.
The TSC will use this input to officially nominate the initial maintainers by next TSC meeting.
The CAMARA admin team creates the Sub-Project repository.
NOTE: After the initial maintainers are nominated, the criteria for further maintainers would be three months of active contribution to the sub project. Code owners are to be decided by the maintainers within the subproject.
