On this sad Friday November 13 2016, collaborative OPNV project teams-, contributors-, as well as the OPNFV@Fuel team wants to announce that Fuel@OPNFV WP1 is concluded

This first work-package is in part aligned with Genesis mandated requirements-, in part a result of Genesis requirements expected to come, in part due to internal Fuel@OPNFV requirements, and in part based on specific collaborative integration request with Fuel@OPNFV.

Following basic deliverables are part of WP1:

• Rebased to OpenStack Kilo / Fuel 7.0
  • Build system rebased - verified.
  • Deploy system rebased - verified.
  • Support systems rebased (including OPNFV CI-pipeline, and developers pipeline) - verified.
  • ODL Lithium Fuel plug-in (inherent to Fuel@OPNFV project) rebased - verified.
• Service function chaining integration Project: Service Function Chaining
  • OVS-DPDK 2.4 with Network Service Header (NSH) additions - (implemented as a Fuel plug-in) - Not fully verified
  • ODL adaptation/configurations for service function chaining - (implemented as Fuel plug-in) - Not fully verified
• KVMNFV (Project: NFV Hypervisors-KVM)
  • QEMU patch - (implemented as a Fuel plug-in) - verified
• OpenContrail (Project: OpenContrail Virtual Networking for OPNFV)
  • We are close to have a first integration - (implemented as a Fuel plug-in) - but not quite there.

Work package result evaluation:

• The evaluation of the work-package 1's result is in-line with set-out goals: Fuel@OPNFV Brahmaputra work-package planning.

What will happen now?

• We will merge the Kilo / Fuel 7.0 experimental Fuel@OPNFV repository to fuel/master on November 16.
• Work on final collaborative project integration according to: Fuel@OPNFV Brahmaputra integrated projects will commence - to be ready by Work-package 2 due December 17, see the complete timeline here: Fuel@OPNFV Brahmaputra work-package planning.
• We will start the rebase work to Fuel 8.0 / OpenStack Liberty on the experimental branch during December.
• Planned merge of Fuel 8.0 / OpenStack Liberty to master is planned to take place by conclusion of WP3 Jan 5, see the complete plan here: Fuel@OPNFV Brahmaputra work-package planning.
