Members of Japan Working Group will introduce activities from our local chapter and sub-groups at OSS/ELC EU Technical Showcase on the 29th of October. Please drop by and say hello!
Dr. Peter Ellsiepen at the European Space Agency (ESA) is kindly hosting a Tooling Work Group meeting at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC). This event marks one of the early opportunities for parties interested in tooling and automation to get together and discuss which open source solutions they are applying to open source compliance.
The Tooling Work Group is chaired by Oliver Fendt from Siemens and has a diverse range of contributors from German, Japanese and international companies.

Upcoming Events:
Oliver presented an overview of the interesting session from an OSS compliance perspective at Eclipsecon.
Alexios asked about an overview of the interesting sessions at OSS Summit Europe. Michael J. sent an email with interesting talks at the OSS Summit Europe to the mailing list.
2. Sw360antenna
Lars gave an overview about their work concerning automation and integration of the OSS compliance tools in the CI/CD workflow. He introduced two use cases (please see attached slides):
1. Automatic management of 3rd party dependencies
This use case applies to “normal” software development, where the OSS component approval is triggered by the integration of the component.
2. Upfront dependency approval
This use case applies to software development in regulated environments like safety critical systems, where the OSS components which will be integrated must be known upfront. If an unknown component is detected this will cause a policy violation.
Aaron added that this use case is also common in the financial sector.
Lars mentioned that for having an overview about the licensing situation scancode is used and for the curation, approval and release FOSSology is used.
He gave a nice live demo showing the working implementation of use case 1. Oliver mentioned that this demo covers the following functional blocks of the big picture:
Dependency resolver
Source package downloader
License & Copyright Scanner
Policy Checker
Component & application inventory
FOSS Compliance Bundle generator
The documentation of use case 1 is available on https://eclipse.github.io/antenna/1.0.0-SNAPSHOT
3. Next Steps
User stories:
Kate mentioned that there is no user story covering the recipients of the compliance artifacts – the persons/organizations receiving the results of the process and results produced by the toolchain. Oliver said that such a user story will be added.
Next meeting:
The next regular Wednesday meeting will be on 6th of Nov. On 10th of Oct there is the face to face meeting in Darmstadt
