Getting started checklist for new members of ODA-CA

If you are joining the ODA-CA project, here’s a checklist of things to get you on-boarded.

Admin and access

  • Make sure you have a TM Forum account (register here)

  • After your organization has joined the ODA-CA project (see here for the member list) and nominated you to participate, you will need to sign the Individual Contributor License Agreement (ICLA) and return it to Puja Singh. (Please do this only if your company has formally joined the ODA-CA project and nominated you to contribute. If your company has not yet joined, or if you don’t know, please email accelerator@tmforum.org to let us know your interest.)

  • You should receive an invitation to the ODA-CA Steering Committee calls and to the project’s discussion channels on Slack. If you need assistance please contact Amaia White.

Explore ODA-CA GitHub

  • Browse around to find documentation and demonstrations: eg here is our Component Design guide with instructions on how to create a component, and here is the process for making contributions.

  • Go here for guidance on how to start making code contributions.

  • Ask questions on Slack - the team will be happy to help get you started.

Join the ODA Components & Canvas project

The ODA Components & Canvas project is developing the formal specifications for the ODA Components and Canvas. It’s a regular TM Forum collaboration project which any TM Forum member can join to get access to resources in the shared collaboration space and to project meetings:

  • Login to https://www.tmforum.org

  • Click on Labs / Member projects

  • Scroll down to the ODA Components & Canvas project and click on JOIN THE PROJECT, accept the IPR Policy and submit the IPR form

  • Once approved, you will see that the text on the Member projects page button will change from REQUEST SENT to VIEW PROJECT and you will be able to access the project space in Confluence by clicking on the button, or by going to Technical Architecture and Components Project Home
