External Standard Coordination

Open source and standard are complementing each other. Opensource is playing an increasing important role in SDO practice, which could help to gain industry concensus and adoption. The external standard community is a group of officer who is responsible for identifying and following the overlap in interest or practice from standard bodies related to ONAP’s implementation and report together with standard coordinator to TSC regularly or on demand.
