Agenda of today's meeting:

Top1: Overview of CeCaS project:
Headline: A data-centric vehicle abstraction is considered as key enabler.
Focus on basic data access interfaces. A data model is needed. VSS is chosen as it is considered a good match.
Similarities to ideas from Automotive API FW were identified.
Norbert will check within CARIAD if open-sourcing and uploading to a branch within Automotive API FW is possible (timeline not clear).

Top2: Presentation of current repository state by Gunther:

• 3 branches created. One for Qorix, one for ZF, and one for Vector.
• ZF plans to upload an initial version of the VSS management tool scheduled for cw8.
• Qorix is in internal alignment, feedback on initial contribution cw8.
• Vector is working on the initial contribution, nothing uploaded before cw13/cw14.

Top3: Heads-up by Gunther that also some process is needed for the project later on.

• Timelines
• Certification
• Communication
• Release management

Plan for next meeting:

• Walk-through of ZF initial contribution.
• TTTech will present possible contributions in the direction of execution and scheduling. If possible in the next meeting.
