As noted in the call, I will put the following item on the agenda for the next 
Models team meeting: discuss how/where to build a library of reference VNFs for 
functional and performance testing on OPNFV.

I encourage anyone interested in that to join the next Models meeting on 
Monday: https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/models/Models+Meetings

I have been pursuing that for the Models project, at the work-in-progress page 
https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/models/References (see the Open Source VNFs 
table which is pretty short right now).

The related goals in the Models project are to:

-          Increase the diversity of reference VNFs (meaning mostly 
functionally complete open source implementations of typical "network 
functions" and services built from them)

-          Create tests for their deployment/lifecycle management on various 
OPNFV scenarios using various upper-MANO stack components (NFVO/VNFM), and 
include those tests under Functest and Dovetail

-          In the process, collect additional models for VNFs/services that are 
not yet available as part of reference VNFs, and promote their further 
development as functional reference VNFs (see the "Model References" table)

-          Not host the code, but focus on tests and model/blueprint variations 
that support the tests and the goals of the models project to assess and 
promote model/blueprint convergence

It would be good for OPNFV to consider hosting reference VNF implementations 
where there is no current upstream home, e.g. if members donate open source 
VNFs OPNFV could create repos specific to those VNFs for their development.

Thanks,

Hello community,

We had a very good discussion today. Thank you all for participation and 
contribution.

We started with discussing a new project proposal 
"Rescuer<https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/PROJ/Project+Proposals+Rescuer>". 
Through discussion, it was suggested that Leon work with HA PTL and Multisite 
PTL to identify overlaps and gaps, and find the best way to move forward that 
benefits all projects.

At the end, Dave suggested to put common topics of community as standing agenda 
items. As a result, we put current community discussion topics as standing 
agenda items. We will start to discuss Certification Program related topic next 
Thursday November 10.

The meeting minutes page is 
https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/PROJ/tc+minutes+20161103, which contains the IRC 
log

Thanks
Bin
