[openstack-dev] [NFV] New Sub-team and Meeting

2014-05-15 Thread Russell Bryant
It is clear that a number of us have been working independently on NFV
related features.  It would be beneficial to start doing some
coordination in this area.  To do that, I think we should form an NFV
group with a regular IRC meeting.  I'd like to see this group be a
collaboration of developers, deployers, and end users working together
to make sure we are successful in supporting NFV use cases.

Proposed set of goals for this group:

 * Organize documentation on the OpenStack wiki of use cases and gaps to
be filled in OpenStack.

 * Identify relevant development efforts across OpenStack (designs,
code) and track their progress.

   - Provide a page for interested parties to quickly see the status
 across these efforts

   - Highlight areas that need additional help.

 * Provide a meeting where people can get together and discuss this work
   on a regular basis.

To get us started, I have created the following wiki page with some
information on some of the efforts already under way.  I welcome help
filling it in with more details.

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/NFV

For the IRC meeting, I propose we start meeting in a couple weeks with
the first one on Wednesday, June 4 at 1400 UTC in #openstack-meeting.
It's going to be tough to pick a date/time that works for everyone, but
if this absolutely does not work for you and you'd like to participate,
feedback is welcome.

For discussions outside of the meeting about these features, I think we
should use the openstack-dev mailing list.  When posting about NFV,
please use the [NFV] tag in the message subject.

Thanks!

Hi Russell,

Are we going to bring all the NFV efforts happening in multiple projects like 
FWaaS, Service VM etc under one roof.

Just curious to know the objective of this NFV sub-team.

Regards,
Balaji.P

Hi Russ,

Are you in Atlanta? If so, should we find a time to meet at (for
example) the Neutron pod area for face to face meeting over the next two
days?

Thanks,
- Stephen

I think if a given effort has enough people and momentum that they have
already organized with a meeting and such, I certainly don't want to
stop that.  However, I think it would be nice to have a representative
from each of these things to stop by and report status and raise
awareness of any areas where additional help is needed.  We're going to
be tracking requirements around NFV and matching up development efforts
to those, so we'll certainly be interested in those things.

If there's not already a team/meeting around a particular effort, we can
certainly drive it through this group.

There's a BoF today at 1:30 pm.

http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-May/035027.html

I'm planning to be there and will discuss this.

Great idea to bring folks together to form some concerted effort.

  * Organize documentation on the OpenStack wiki of use cases and gaps to
 be filled in OpenStack.

Some of this information is slowly being built (in a more generic
fashion) with the ETSI NFV group.  So getting this translated more
directly into OpenStack language is probably a good start.
