It is important to keep in mind that we support a distributed CI approach.
This lab is an important part of the CI, but we can run other tests
in other labs. That's why I think we must really stick with a specific name
for this lab.
Several names were mentionned so far:
	- performance lab
	- UNH lab
	- reference lab
	- community lab

I think we must decide which name we want to use.
Opinions?

Re: [dpdk-web] [dpdk-ci] [PATCH] add a link to the CI dashboard

Hi All,

Would "UNH-IOL Performance Lab" be acceptable?  I'm thinking this would be
along the lines of Host / Purpose.  So, taking an example, if Acme hosted a
build lab, it could be "Acme Build Lab" or something like that.  In terms
of project branding, maybe we need to develop some messaging around how the
labs are part of the project.  I'm thinking similar to how OPNFV has the
"Pharos Labs," which they describe as "a federated NFV testing
infrastructure of community labs around the world."  I think the goal would
be to describe the labs as a community resource, supporting to DPDK project
and it's developers.

Cheers,
Lincoln

Re: [dpdk-web] [dpdk-ci] [PATCH] add a link to the CI dashboard

[O'Driscoll, Tim]

We’ve mostly been referring to this as the “DPDK Open Lab”. It could also be “DPDK Performance Lab”. I think the name needs to have DPDK in it. I don’t think the name should include UNH-IOL. The lab is hosted by UNH-IOL, but we need to emphasise the project rather than the location.

Re: [dpdk-web] [dpdk-ci] [PATCH] add a link to the CI dashboard

[Lincoln Lavoie]

Hi Tim,

I don't disagree, I was assuming there might be a time where there are
multiple labs as part of this or other testing programs within DPDK.  I do
like Thomas' proposal, "DPDK Community Lab," as it catches the main purpose
of the lab, which to be a resource to the DPDK project participants.

Cheers,
Lincoln

Re: [dpdk-web] [dpdk-ci] [PATCH] add a link to the CI dashboard

[O'Driscoll, Tim]

Yes, DPDK Community Lab is good. It’s a bit more generic than DPDK Performance Lab, and allows for extending the scope beyond just performance testing in future.

I agree we must improve the communication about the distributed CI.
Starting with good naming is a good step for communicating :)

Let's discuss your proposal "UNH-IOL Performance Lab".
About "UNH-IOL", yes it is accurate, but we may want to show it as
THE lab which is shared by several community members, not only
the lab hosted at UNH.
About "Performance" word, I think we should avoid that name
because the lab will probably be used for functionnal testing as well.

Another proposal sent in parallel of this mail by Tim: "DPDK Open Lab".
I am in favor of "DPDK Community Lab".
