After logging in to the PCC, the home page serves as the default landing page. It offers an overview of your projects and subprojects.

Add a Project

To add a new project, you need to provide essential information about the project.

This information will be used to create a "draft" project, which will then be reviewed by the "formation team." The formation team will review the project details, ask questions, and create draft governance materials for your review.

  1. Click Add Project. A form will appear; fill out the form and click Next.

Field
Description

Common Name

Enter the name of the project that you identify the project name with. This is a mandatory field.

Category will be enabled only when you select a Parent Project. You can select the project to categorize for better grouping and navigation.

Slug

The "slug" (URL fragment) is a unique project identifier suitable for using in a URL, and is used to reference projects in a recognizable way by services within and outside the LFX platform. It is typically NOT changed once the project has been added.

Upon typing a common name, PCC will attempt to format a slug based on the common name.

This field is mandatory

Parent Project

Select the parent project if you want to associate or add your project as a child project.

Select No Parent, if you do not want to add any parent project.

Stage

Select the stage from the drop-down

Draft: This project is still in the planning phase and has not been formally initiated.

Formation: Disengaged: This project has been formally initiated, but the formation team is not actively engaged in its development.

Formation: Exploratory: This project is in the early stages of formation, and the formation team is exploring its feasibility and requirements.

Formation: On hold: This project has been formally initiated, but its development has been temporarily paused.

Primary Website/Domain

Enter the primary website or domain of the project.

Repository URL

Enter the GitHub repository url.

Project Logo

You can upload the relevant logo for your project.

Category
  1. Sandbox: A testing environment for experimental or unfinished projects.

  2. SIG: Special Interest Group, focused on specific areas or technologies.

  3. Standards: Projects developing or implementing technical standards.

  4. TAC: Technical Advisory Committee, guiding technical direction.

  5. Active: Currently ongoing and maintained projects.

  6. Adopted: Projects officially accepted by the organization.

  7. Archived: Inactive projects preserved for reference.

  8. At-Large: Projects not fitting into other specific categories.

  9. Early Adoption: Projects in initial stages of implementation or use.

  10. Emeritus: Retired projects or members with honorary status.

  11. Graduated: Projects that have reached a mature, stable state.

  12. Growth: Projects experiencing significant development or expansion.

  1. Click Add Project, and a form will appear. Complete the form and click Create Project.

Field

Action

Technology Sector

Select an appropriate technology sector for your project. You can also select more than one sector.

If you feel that your project falls across all sectors, check the Cross Technology box.

Industry Sector

Select an appropriate industry sector for your project. You can also select more than one sector.

If you feel that your project falls across all sectors, check the Cross-Industry box.

Technical Activity Type

Description

Provide a short description of your project.

Mission Statement

Provide a single-line mission statement that depicts your project followed by the primary goal of your project. This is a mandatory field.

  1. Upon success, you will be redirected to your newly created project

By default, all newly created projects will have Draft as their default status.

​An email is also sent to the formation team informing them of the newly created project that is awaiting review.

View All Projects

View All Projects lists all the projects created, irrespective of who has created them.

Search Projects and Domains

The search bar at the top of the interface lets you quickly find specific projects by entering keywords or project names.

When using the search input, you will retrieve a list of related projects and domains, if any.

The following two features work together to provide a flexible and efficient way to navigate the platform:

  1. Use the search bar to find specific projects or content within that domain.

  2. Use the domain selector to refine your search context first.

  1. Clicking on a project will redirect you to the selected project.

  2. Clicking on a domain will redirect you to manage that domain within the project it is associated with.

Meetings Calendar

If your project uses LFX Meetings, the calendar on the dashboard will offer a concise and comprehensive overview of all upcoming and past meetings associated with the current project.

You can adjust the visibility of the calendar by clicking the calendar toggle button, which allows you to easily show or hide the calendar as needed.

Quick Links

  1. View or create a committee

  2. View or create a mailing list

  3. View or schedule a meeting

  4. View or send Surveys

  2. You can edit the names of the Executive Director and Program Manager in the pop-up window.

  3. Click Confirm.

Currently, you are unable to update the Opportunity Owner. To update the Opportunity Owner, please contact support.


Why You Need to Add a Project in PCC

By adding a project in PCC, users can:

  1. Streamline Project Governance: Organize and manage governance resources, including legal entities, official committees, project documentation, export controls, and trademarks, all in one place.

  2. Simplify Financial Management: Easily manage financial operations, including membership tiers, pricing, billing, and accounting, to ensure a smooth and transparent financial experience.

  3. Enhance Collaboration and Access Control: Set permissions based on roles, granting administrators, project managers, and community stakeholders the access they need to perform their tasks efficiently.

  4. Get Started with Integrated Project Tooling: Get onboarded to the entire suite of LFX tools, designed to help scale open-source projects, and take advantage of features like code release pipeline management and IT service inventory.

  5. Effortlessly Manage Release Engineering: Automate and manage the code release pipeline, from commits and code merges to builds, packaging, and distribution, to ensure seamless project delivery.

  6. Centralize IT Service Inventory: Easily manage and track IT services, including source control, domains, mailing lists, cloud instances, and collaboration tools, in a single, accessible location.

By adding a project in PCC, you can simplify project management, enhance collaboration, and streamline governance, ultimately driving project success.
