Marketing Event/Collateral Discussion (15 Minutes) 

  • White paper- Nick, Bob have confirmed an Intel contract writer resource can be allocated to draft CNTT - Still need to kick this off
  • ETSI PlugFest endorsement, Participation Pierre Lynch has been seeking to get this off the ground. Progress is stalled in part due to doubt that people can plan to travel anytime soon and whether even will even occur as planned. 

Metrics

  • Pre-Launch Trials: sub-group needed to work on quantitative and qualitative assessment
  • We need to make progress on identifying Pre-launch Trials participants for NFVI and VNFs
  • Need some Questions to ask for feasibility or CNTT methods (e.g. cookbook) so the product of badging being offered is sufficiently supported by the industry “a lifecycle feedback loop” between CNTT and OPNFV to adopt RA1, RA2. A sub-group call will create questions Jonathan Beltran working on this.
  • For Dev Analytics, we need to map IDs to Analytics site. Scot Steele reaching out to Jim Baker on this. 
  • LFN Dev Analytics site - starting basic mapping work (Multiple user IDs to LFN ID)

Recruiting

  • BT has joined and has been sent the new Welcome Letter. Has this letter been archived as an artifact for reuse?
  • Facebook/Magma

General

Still need to capture and track the MMA Action items better. Some of us do not need to create and populate new Issues for tracking.

GitHub(https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/projects/28).  Currently all action items are in Confluence tagged MMA. 

  • GitHub for Governance Training Session Recording: Tools and Training 
  • Quick Note: The LFN Developer & Testing Forum report with CNTT feature is now published here. Please read, share, and help promote. Open to feedback on format/branding for next time.


Meeting Notes

  • Meeting invite will be reconstituted to peg to UTC. Bob will also check to ensure that the wiki specifies UTC for these meetings.
  • Bob Monkman hasn't heard anything on Nokia or Red Hat
  • Mirantis is done.  Key takeaway is around the need to be able to differentiate vendor product within the conformance guidelines.  Not yet clear how to do that. How do vendors move upstream? Operational support, reacting to vulnerabilities, etc.  If the infrastructure vendors are seeing this as a threat, we should spell this out.
  • On the OPNFV 2.0 call, the topic of performance came up; conformance is importance, but if performance isn't acceptable, then it's all for naught.
  • But performance testing at this level is extremely variable.  There's a reason we dropped it from conformance testing.
  • We definitely don't want to bring in multiple clouds and do a bake-off, but we should do a performance test with the Reference Implementation and set that as the baseline against which vendors can differentiate.  But we need to make sure they don't bring in specific interfaces to increase performance, causing us to have to test again.
  • Let's triage the responses we have already and get the key takeaways.  We're probably not going to get anybody else.  Jonathan wants to get at least one more vendor, however, so we'll keep trying but we'll start working with what we've got.  Jonathan Beltran Bob Monkmanand Nick Chasewill meet to review what we have (2 operators and a vendor). (Nokia is still pending.) Should include Scot Steeleas well.
  • Bob Monkman will meet with Nick Chase re: the whitepaper
  • ETSI plugfest likely in danger of not happening due to travel requirements. Bob Monkmanwill review the minutes, but it will likely be postponed.
  • Trial will likely not happen in April timeframe, but we are still getting nicely prepared for it; chapter 9 is going well.  Bob Monkmanwill review chapter 9 and send a note to potential participants to enable them to look at meat and details regarding the guidance CNTT is giving.
  • Jonathan Beltran has been working on mapping contributors to work using new dev analytics system from LFN.  Unknowns 74% → 28%.  Tedious but continuous process. Jim Baker working on bug fixes, we're beta testers. 
  • Beth Cohen will archive BT welcome letter as an archive on the MMA wiki "artifacts" page (to be created). Existing material such as decks can still be added.
  • Github for Governance has bee updated with a new link for how to contribute and for nomenclature for labeling, projects, etc.
  • Facebooks/Magma LTE packet core will be using CNTT as their deployment guidelines.
  • Rabi Abdel pointed out that it would be good to know which track vendors and suppliers are interested in.


  • No labels
