Get the project into production

...

Attend conferences/events an give talks about CoMPAS and their features

Website to generate your own CoMPAS distribution (example: Spring Initializr)

Make a lower barrier to make feature request (Github issues might be to much for some people)

Phyiscal meetup to write plug-ins

Start a tech-forum of questions and support (e.g. forum/wiki

Hacktober

Regular CoMPAS meetup


Get the education sector involved

...

Act in order to reach gold level at OpenSSF BestPractices.

Expected objective : Silver level at the end of 2022CoMPAS is currently at (partly) silver stage.

Make sure the software is of good quality by testing it by hand and in an automated way

...

  • Collbaborate with Fledge (Fledge uses the SCL configurations), Powsybl (Service to map CIM Data to SCL Data) and RiseClipse (validation of SCL files)
  • Work upstream with OpenSCD
