+# Nodeless Working Group
+
+To propose a set of changes to Kubernetes which de-emphasizes the concept of nodes, for users that do not need to be aware of them, and to explore an architectual design for those users.
+
+## Meetings
+* Regular WG Meeting: [Wednesdays at 14:00 PT (Pacific Time)](https://zoom.us/j/588409652) (weekly). [Convert to your timezone](http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/?t=14:00&tz=PT%20%28Pacific%20Time%29).

+
+
+The goals for the working group are as follows:
+Phase 1
+1. Define what nodeless Kubernetes means to users, by exploring the realm of use cases
+2. Design a user experience around nodeless
+3. Create reference architectures for a nodeless Kubernetes and define clear behaviors for how a nodeless Kubernetes should act
+
+Phase 2
+4. Propose upstream API changes to make Kubernetes more extensible to containers as a service platforms
+5. Define a clear list of limitations and user impact of nodeless from a user’s point of view
+6. Propose conformance tests for nodeless kubernetes
+7. Define a standardized 'nodeless' API/capabilities that we expect nodeless container providers to implement for integration with Kubernetes
+
