Hi all,

The ikev2 plugin is currently getting some much needed love [1] [2] but it also 
means that its API is starting to show its age.
We'd like to mark it as "In-Progress" under the new API change process [3] so 
that we can quickly improve it.
The rationale is:
 - the requirement for an API to transition to "In-Production" is for the API 
to be stable and *tested* - there are currently no ikev2 unit test at all, and 
in fact the 1st proposed API change was motivated by the introduction of the 
initial test cases [4]
 - we are not aware of any users of the ikev2 plugin API today apart from the 
Calico-VPP integration

Of course, a possibility would be to deprecate the existing one and to 
introduce a new one as "In-Progress" at the expense of more work.

What does the community think here?

Thanks
ben
