3. Work scheme for RI

1) Expect each RI WS lead to arrange and follow the issues for their own WS. Will use this call as general time where WS share updates and discussion for necessary topics. RI WS Lead can also arrange their own separate calls to get things going.

2) Currently the issues are mainly about the documents. However things need to be improved and promoted in OPNFV and CNTT as well. Would expect each WS to promote the following action items

Labs related, Lead: Rajesh

• current suitable labs for RI implementation within OPNFV
• PDF and SDF updates to fit into CNTT RA's requirement (need collaboration with Infra WG within OPNFV)

Devs related, Lead: Cedric

• Work with Installer project ( currently only Airship) for the first RI code development, make sure it meet the need from CNTT, and get alliance with RI requirement
• work with testing projects (functest et al) for the compliance testing code development.
