OK, here's the draft of the Liaison request (template borrowed from OpenDaylight)
-------------------------------------------------------------- To: ETSI Industry Study Group (ISG) on Network Functions Virtualization Prodip Sen, Chairman NFV ISG prodip....@verizon.com Andrew Malis, NFV Liaison Officer <andrew.g.ma...@verizon.com> I am a member of the Apache CloudStack Project Management Committee (PMC) and have been asked to serve as liaison from the Apache CloudStack community to the ETSI Industry Standard Group on Network Functions Virtualization. Apache CloudStack is open source software designed to deploy and manage large networks of virtual machines, as a highly available, highly scalable Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud computing platform. The platform has pioneered the use of VNF to provide network services to IAAS tenants. We are excited to see that NFV is going to realize its potential and look forward to collaborating to realize this promise expeditiously. The community would like to suggest these areas of collaboration: 1) ETSI NFV ISG Documents: It would be very helpful to receive pointers to the various documents being produced by the ETSI NFV ISG, even before their formal publication, so that your needs can be incorporated into the Apache CloudStack development effort. 2) Sharing ideas and experience: We have many shared goals and a large community of experienced cloud implementors. We have several opportunities where someone from ETSI NFV ISG could present to the Apache CloudStack community, including meetups and online fora , and our CloudStack Collaboration Summit. We would also be quite pleased to present on Apache CloudStack to ETSI NFV ISG in any forum you find appropriate. If appropriate we can participate in working groups such as the MANO WG. 3) Open Source: We would love to get members of the ETSI NFV ISG participate in our community, especially in design ideas, code contributions and the like. We hope that we can assist in producing reference implementations and help iterate faster on crucial issues such as interoperability. Of course we welcome other ideas for collaboration with the NFV ISG. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- On 11/11/13 1:02 AM, "Sebastien Goasguen" <run...@gmail.com> wrote: >How about Chiradeep makes the contact and proposal for CloudStack to >join/be represented ? > >Then we can decide who is the representative.
