- Technical Lead (TL) - overall responsibility incl. design, detailed
work plan, DT coordination, managing dependencies.
- Development Team (DT) - doing work following the TL.
- Project Lead (PL) - involved in all work areas at higher level,
focusing on requirements definitions, design and work reviews,
acceptance.
- For work areas with large number of deliverables there could be
multiple TLs e.g. for operations, framework or test refactor.
- FD.io CSIT owners' initials listed with suffix strings:
"[TL;DT1..DTn;PL]", contact details at the end of this note.
* Actual work breakdown tracked in FD.io CSIT jira:
