Hi Margaret,

WRT to new set vs old set, can you please confirm that the new set contains all 
the initiatives in the old set? My understanding is that the new set contains 
additional ones from the pain point list. Or am I missing something?

Thanks,

A

Min add to the meeting minutes that I am looking for comments on the new 
initiatives organization. If I don't here anything, then I will map the 
projects to the new set

Minutes

·         Previous Minutes/Agenda: approved

·         Meeting Schedule

o    The proposal to move the WG meeting to 6AM Pacific Time was approved to 
accommodate people in Asia time zones. The GTM info remains the same.

o    Between now and the end of September, the WG will meet every Thursday.

·         Use of Aha! Tool for Strategic Planning

o    Margaret gave an update that Cliff showed her some basics of the Aha! 
Tool. Margaret is going to experiment and get comfortable using it while the 
pricing and payment are being reconciled before the need to expand user IDs is 
considered.

·         Discussion on Pain Points Clarification by Steven Wright

o    Steven Wright, newly elected Chair of the End User Advisory Group (EUAG), 
noted that since EUAG has just formed, the group hasn’t had the chance to add 
details and refinement to the pain points that Bryan posted on the wiki.

o    In response to Steven’s question about how EUAG and SPC Polestar WG can 
collaborate, suggestions included EUAG providing Polestar WG with guidance on 
the prioritization, sequencing, and precise use stories and scenario(s) of the 
pain points. Action: Steven will create detailed user stories of the pain 
points.

o    Steven asked about the release timeline of the next roadmap. Margaret 
noted that OPNFV doesn’t yet have a strategic roadmap. The plan is to identify 
one or two key areas to focus on and then map the current OPNFV projects to see 
if there are enough projects addressing those areas by the end of September.  
And it would be helpful if EUAG and Polestar WG use the same format to organize 
and focus their efforts. Steven cautioned that progress may be slow initially 
because EUAG is a new group.

o    Questions were asked about the purpose of VNFs and Networking for NFV. 
Steven will get some clarification on these two points with EUAG. Action: 
Steven will also identify main architecture components if end users have strong 
opinions in this space.

o    The group decided to use the ODL Summit at the end of September as a 
target date and to have a holistic discussion at the Summit amongst the EUAG 
members, Polestar WG members, and PTLs. Between now and then, EUAG should 
identify 1-2 highest pain points, the Polestar WG work on mapping the OPNFV 
projects to those pain points, and people in the technical community on this 
call coalesce the right people into the ODL Summit discussion.

·         Review of Margaret's Mapping

o    Because of the many overlaps between the initiatives identified by the SPC 
and the EUAG's pain points, Margaret created Initiatives v2 (see Exhibit A) and 
noted that it would help move things along if EUAG uses the same version when 
it does the prioritization.

o    Margaret showed the group her Excel mapping sheet (see Exhibit B) and 
noted that it’s cumbersome to move things around and connect the dots on the 
Excel spreadsheet so she will move the information to Aha! once she gets the 
license.

·          AoB

o    Everyone welcomed Shamil, who was on the call today as the interface with 
the Polestar WG from the OpenStack Product WG. A question was asked about how 
to engage with the Product WG in providing OPNFV use stories. Shamil commented 
that today’s discussion on refining paint points, user stories, and text 
scenarios are good next steps. Shamil will share the Product WG’s template on 
capturing use stories and recommended the Polestar WG to use a similar format. 
Shamil also agreed that they can combine resources on both sides if Polestar 
and Product groups work together in this area.

o    The Polestar WG will provide input to the SPC for approval before the 
SPC’s report out to the Board on September 8.
