on YouTube ↗40m

" summary

Working group delivers a white paper and a landscape spreadsheet inventorying serverless projects, publishes CloudEvents v0.1 with HTTP and adjacent mappings, and wires a multi-vendor demo that routes events across Kubernetes and FaaS runtimes. Work focuses on a common event envelope (type, version, tracing, security), portability of function signatures and deployment, an event gateway/router prototype, and open gaps: multi-function app packaging, workflow spec, and public‑cloud binary/timeout limits. Face‑to‑face meeting tonight at 8:20.
