17:01:38 <cathy_> anyone has any topic in mind?
17:02:22 <prithiv> i have few queries.. but i would like to ask that through email along with the logs and facts…
17:02:47 <cathy_> prithiv: sure, let's do that through emails as you have done before
17:02:57 <prithiv> i have been someone sending lot of emails these days about issues… sorry if i have been troubling :)
17:03:07 <LouisF> prithiv: no problem
17:03:15 <cathy_> prithiv: np
17:03:15 <prithiv> Thank you Louis
17:03:38 <pcarver> prithiv: Glad to see the emails. I'm sorry I've been too swamped with non-SFC fire drills to do more than observe
17:04:09 <prithiv> Paul: Thank you Paul. I have to discuss some stuffs about Astara.. I will sync up with you later
17:04:16 <prithiv> PArdon me
17:04:17 <prithiv> Gluon
17:04:27 <vikram_> hi
17:04:32 <pcarver> Also glad to see that bugs are being worked through Launchpad although I haven't been able to research any of them
17:04:35 <LouisF> vikram_: hi
17:04:42 <cathy_> vikram_: hi
17:05:03 <vikram_> sorry to be late
17:05:32 <cathy_> pcarver: yes, we are cleaning up bugs and set them to the right state.
17:05:35 <cathy_> vikram_: np
17:06:45 <cathy_> Now that we have merged all the patches that are related to this first release of networking-sfc, I am going to work on official release of the codes with release team.
17:07:30 <s3wong> hello --- sorry, a bit late
17:08:40 <cathy_> I hope everyone can do more testing of the codes and submit bugs found.
17:08:45 <cathy_> s3wong: hi
17:08:45 <prithiv> Cathy: Awesome. looking forward for uodate
17:09:22 <cathy_> prithiv: sure, I will update everyone in the next IRC meeting, and through emails if needed.
17:10:35 <cathy_> I might need help from you folks to help with some tasks during the release process.
17:10:45 <prithiv> Cathy: Sure. Doing the testing rigorously for the past one week.. will update
17:10:54 <prithiv> More than happy to help Cathy…
17:11:00 <prithiv> Anything particular ?
17:11:00 <cathy_> prithiv: thanks!
17:11:14 <cathy_> prithiv: not yet for now
17:11:23 <mohankumar_> cathy_ , pleasure
17:11:34 <cathy_> mohankumar_: thanks!
17:12:10 <igordcard_> hi networking-sfc - what would be the next steps for the project?
17:12:25 <prithiv> how far the odl and onos integration has gone
17:12:36 <prithiv> any plans to start that in near future ?
17:12:43 <pcarver> igordcard_: What I'd like to see next is more drivers
17:13:08 <pcarver> i.e. drivers for a number of different SDN controller backends
17:13:09 <mohankumar_> prithiv , ONOS integration  was done , the code already up for review
17:13:18 <cathy_> igordcard_: next step is to release the codes:-) Then we can start discussing what enhancement features for the next release.
17:13:29 <vikram> cathy_:+1
17:13:48 <mohankumar_> cathy_ : +1
17:13:49 <cathy_> yes, drivers for a number of different controller bankends is a good one
17:13:55 <igordcard_> cathy_: so, apart from the release itself, everything is up for discussion correct?
17:13:59 <prithiv> one quick question.. sorry if it is out of sfc focus…
17:14:06 <cathy_> igordcard_: yes
17:14:09 <prithiv> any update about ovs support for nsh ?
17:14:20 <prithiv> so that nsh can be implemented in sfc
17:14:22 <cathy_> prithiv: good question
17:14:33 <igordcard_> prithiv: well it's of sfc focus
17:14:42 <cathy_> NSH for SFC is another one for next release.
17:15:05 <igordcard_> cathy_: with metadata support?
17:15:34 <cathy_> but we need to first get the NSH accepted in OVS community
17:15:42 <cathy_> igordcard_: yes
17:15:55 <LouisF> prithiv: onos driver -> https://review.openstack.org/#/c/266797/
17:15:55 <cathy_> igordcard_: type 2 NSH support
17:16:44 <prithiv> Thanks Cathy
17:16:44 <cathy_> type 2 which is variable length for metadata since you can never predict the length and type of every metadata
17:16:46 <prithiv> Thanks Louis
17:16:51 <prithiv> I will look at the code
17:17:09 <igordcard_> cathy_: I see, thanks
17:17:10 <cathy_> different usage scenario has different requirement for metadata
17:18:27 <cathy_> igordcard_: prithiv I know Intel is working on NSH in OVS community. If you can help get NSH released in OVS, then we can take it over and add some enhancement in networking-sfc project.
17:18:50 <prithiv> sure.
17:18:57 <LouisF> regarding sfc nsh status -> https://tools.ietf.org/wg/sfc/
17:19:07 <prithiv> i will check and see what can be done from my end
17:19:16 <cathy_> AFAIK, Openstack will only accept new feature of OVS unless it is accepted in OVS
17:19:18 <igordcard_> cathy_: I'm not involved in NSH
17:20:00 <cathy_> igordcard_: do you know who in Intel is involved in that? Euri? Or Danny? Maybe you can help find out and shoot me an email
17:20:01 <cathy_> ?
17:20:17 <cathy_> prithiv: thanks!
17:21:32 <igordcard_> cathy_: I'm not sure it's within my power to help NSH being accepted in OVS though..
17:22:04 <cathy_> let each of us think about the features for next release. We can then discuss them in the IRC meeting and prioritize them
17:22:09 <cathy_> igordcard_: OK, I see
17:22:12 <igordcard_> but I am also looking forward to having NSH in OVS
17:24:31 <cathy_> but importantly let's get this first release successfully completed so that more people can try it in a smooth way. So let's concentrate on this task for now:-)
17:25:09 <cathy_> any other topic? If no one has any specific issue that needs to be discussed in this meeting, I guess we can end the meeting early today
17:25:24 <s3wong> cool
17:26:06 <vikram> nothing from my end
17:26:14 <prithiv> that will be all from my side
17:26:28 <cathy_> Good. I will count 5 seconds and end the meeting if no specific issue to discuss:-)
17:26:34 <pcarver> sounds good
