3. PTG Update (bh526r_, 18:02:27)
   1. Sukhdev and Ian participated in Neutron PTG last week (bh526r_, 18:02:53)
   2. Two RFE's were proposed and discussed (bh526r_, 18:03:08)
   3. darla (alraddarla, 18:03:09)
   4. RFE 1: Neutron API enhancement - make network and subnets as optional (bh526r_, 18:03:40)
   5. https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1664461 (bh526r_, 18:03:51)
   6. RFE 2: Neutron API enhancement - add optional attribute to network (bh526r_, 18:04:12)
   7. https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1664466 (bh526r_, 18:04:29)
   8. Sukhdev did a great job in presenting Gluon in Neutron's PTG (bh526r_, 18:05:21)
   9. Sukhdev elaborated the Gluon as well as non-Gluon use cases and examples to support the rationale for Neutron API enhancement (bh526r_, 18:05:58)
   10. Ian and Paul have helped clarify the use case, supported presentation (bh526r_, 18:06:41)
   11. There was good and detailed discussion on the subject. (bh526r_, 18:07:10)
   12. It was agreed that if we can implement the Network Type (the second RFE), it would cover all our Gluon use cases (bh526r_, 18:07:48)
   13. Thus we can focus on implementing the Network Type. (bh526r_, 18:08:33)
   14. Of course, the devil is the detail. (bh526r_, 18:08:42)
   15. Some other suggestions include using "network flavor", or different, similar naming. (bh526r_, 18:10:01)
   16. Neutron's PTG Summary is a good source: (bh526r_, 18:10:15)
   17. http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2017-February/113032.html (bh526r_, 18:10:25)
   18. See the "New Network Types" section (bh526r_, 18:11:13)
   19. In short, we achieved 2 goals in PTG: (bh526r_, 18:11:48)
   20. Goal #1: Cleared the air that Gluon is not another networking project – but, will be part of Neutron with some extensions and enhancements (bh526r_, 18:12:10)
   21. Goal #2:  Converged most of neutron cores to our Gluon approach and explained as to why they should support it – as this is really filling a gap in neutron’s offerings (bh526r_, 18:12:31)
   22. The next step is to deliver the details of implementation of Netwotk Type proposal. (bh526r_, 18:13:03)
   23. We had a good start to move forward a big step, but still a long way to go. (bh526r_, 18:13:25)
   24. Big credit to Sukhdev for initiating and driving it (bh526r_, 18:14:00)
   25. Also big thank you to Ian and Paul for helping and supporting in PTG (bh526r_, 18:14:29)
   
   
4. Status Update of Gluon Ocata Release (bh526r_, 18:15:31)
   1. We had our Gluon 1.0.0 (Ocata release) last week (bh526r_, 18:16:19)
   2. Many thanks to Doug (RM) for helping us create stable/ocata branch, and other infrastructure patches (bh526r_, 18:16:55)
   3. And many thanks to infrastructure team (Andreas and Yolanda) too for the help along the way of our development, and infrastructure support (bh526r_, 18:18:46)
   4. More importantly, big thank you to all of our team members who have spent lots of time and effort in developing, testing, and deploying the PoC (bh526r_, 18:19:57)
   5. Without team effort, nothing could have happened. (bh526r_, 18:20:20)
   6. Thank you all (bh526r_, 18:20:25)
