Happy NewÂYear, one and all!

ITEM ONE:ÂÂPlug FestÂUpdate. OpenC2Âwill be runningÂa plug fest / hackathonÂ

27-28 January 2020,Âhosted by US Cyber Command in their public, unclassifiedÂ

DreamPort facilityÂin Columbia, MD. TC members are encouraged to considerÂ

participation in this event.ÂÂFurther details and registration information can beÂ

found at DreamPort:Âhttps://dreamport.tech/event-open-c2-plug-fest-01272820.php

IF YOU (even think you might) PLAN TO ATTEND THE PLUG FEST PLEASE REGISTER!

A series of threeÂplug fest preparation meetingsÂhave been scheduled, of whichÂ

two have been completed. The remaining call takes place Thursday, January 16thÂ

at 1:00 PM EST. If you wish to participate and need an invitation please contactÂ

the Secretary or any of the TC or SC co-chairs. If you believe there would beÂ

benefit in additional coordination meetings, please myself or Joe Brule (TC co-chair).

Information related to the plug fest is being accumulated into pages in the TC'sÂ

use cases repo; please look atÂ

https://github.com/oasis-tcs/openc2-usecases/tree/master/Cybercom-PlugfestÂ

and make contributions and corrections to improve the overall value of this resource.

A Tech Talk was conducted at DreamPort onÂTuesday,Â5 November, providingÂ

information about OpenC2 and our plans for the plug fest to about 35 people.Â

Slides from the event have been posted; links to the presentations are on theÂ

GH page above (in section 6)

OASIS has created a new mail list for the plug fest which is open to interestedÂ

parties regardless of OASIS or TC membership. If you are interested in participatingÂ

on that mailing list, please let the Secretary know your preferred email to use.Â

The list address isÂopenc2-plugfest-2019@lists.oasis-open.org

A Slack channel has also been established to help with plug fest coordination: # plug-fest-prepÂ

https://openc2-community.slack.com/messages/CNW18R2NR, however since thatÂ

channel is limited to plug fest participants who are also TC members,Â

the mail list is the preferred coordination mechanism.

Six Key Points:

1) The goal of the Plug Fest is to execute use cases using OpenC2Â

  Âand gather lessons learned about interoperability.Â

2) The Plug Fest is not a venue for the development of OpenC2 specifications.

3) The Plug Fest is open to interested participants, regardless of whether they are OASIS members.

4) The Plug Fest is open to all. The DreamPort facility and the Plug Fest are unclassified,Â

  Âand there is no restriction to U.S. organizations or individuals.

5) The plugfest aspect is for testing interworking of existing OpenC2 implementations.Â

  ÂLet us know what you have and we will work your implementation into the test plans.

6) The hackathon aspect is for improving the interworking of existing OpenC2 implementations,Â

  Âextending existing implementations (e.g., the many OpenC2 open source projects),Â

  Âand/or creating new implementations of OpenC2.

ITEM TWO: Google Cloud Platform. A Google representative has arranged to provideÂ

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) resources to support the Plug Fest. A session to introduceÂ

people to the basics of using GCP was held on 5 December at DreamPort. Details onÂ

how to take advantage of the GCP resources were emailed to the plug fest mail list on 30 December 2019.

ITEM THREE: Language SC Co-chair. To-date no nominations have been receivedÂ

for the positionÂof Language SC co-chair.ÂPlease contact either of the TC co-chairsÂ

to nominate a candidate or discuss your interest in the co-chair position.Â

ITEM FOUR:ÂÂA call for post 1.0 Participation.ÂVersion 1.0 of the specificationsÂ

have been posted, approved and announced, so let's move forward.

• Do you have a product or service that's a candidate for producing / consuming
  OpenC2 commands and responses? Please consider sharing your Custom
  Actuator Profile or Proposed Committee specification. Â Please contact the
  AP-SC co-chairs (Alex Everett and Dave Kemp).ÂÂ
  
  
• HTTPS is ubiquitous, but is there a message fabric that is more suitable for
  your cyber-ecosystem? Please consider sharing your proposed key management,
  transport solutions and other implementation considerations with the
  IC-SC co-chairs (Dave Lemire and Michelle Barry)
  
  
• Do you need OpenC2 to do more? Do you have a use case or scenario that
  we have not considered? Please share you use cases with the L-SC co-chairs
  (Toby Considine [and a player-to-be-named-later])
