Meeting summary

  1. Trevor presents plugfest planning proposals (bryan_att, 14:40:08)
    1. Daniel SMith (DanSmithEric, 14:40:45)
    2. Discussion of the logistics for the testfest; Trevor presents slides with an outline and discussion of the planning (bryan_att, 14:40:57)
    3. CableLabs has capacity for 60 participants (rpaik, 14:41:12)
    4. Cablelabs is unsure it can setup equipment shipped there; participants need to be there ahead of time (bryan_att, 14:41:36)
    5. participants will also need to setup their hardware the week prior to the the Plugfest (rpaik, 14:41:48)
    6. Trevor raises concerns about need for installer, hardware, and etc support staff to overcome roadblocks (bryan_att, 14:42:18)
    7. hi, is Dovetail meeting on UTC 14:00 or an hour earlier? (Julien-zte, 14:42:19)
    8. Trevor asked about fest metric priorities: bryan suggested #1 is # of participants, #2 is # of executed tests/senarios, #3 is pass/fail rate (bryan_att, 14:43:36)
    9. is there a list of what VNF's / vendors and applications we are going to be debugging? (DanSmithEric, 14:43:36)
    10. thanks, bryan_att, I make a mistake that I think it is 23:00 in my timezone. (Julien-zte, 14:44:13)
    11. dneary asked what "concentrating on the B release" means; what was included in the release, or on SFC overall (incl things not yet released) (bryan_att, 14:44:39)
    12. raynugent suggests to keep it simple (bryan_att, 14:44:58)
    13. dneary points that products lag te release e.g. by 6 months thus focus on the previous/recent release will be unfruitful (bryan_att, 14:45:37)
    14. - i was under the impression( maybe wrong) - that it was an 'open forum" to have a vnf come and we try and lift it up to our platforrm and get it working (DanSmithEric, 14:46:29)
    15. re hardware setup, DanSmithEric says: that for my part, if (for example) Ericsson wanted to bring HDs, i would need to know things like - who do i contact ? how do we start the process to talk about having hardware moved to a physcail site (we need to do some engineering) (bryan_att, 14:46:41)
    16. DanSmithEric: my other quetsion is that - we can provide platforms for people (for example - bunch of environmetns for people to develpo amd play on). (bryan_att, 14:47:25)
    17. Lincoln points that testing a solution on new hardware is a big draw for vendors and thus needs to be one of the goals (bryan_att, 14:48:31)
    18. Pierre/Licoln notes that Plugfest should provide an opportunity for vendors to do testing that they could not do themselves in their companies (rpaik, 14:49:05)
    19. Pierre Lynch: we should decouple the hardware from the software ecosystem to help ensure we are focusing on the platform not the hardware (bryan_att, 14:49:31)
    20. Bryan: I think the HW focus is due to the real practical concerns about hardware-related roadblocks in the event (bryan_att, 14:50:09)
    21. dneary points that we are not yet evolved to the point that such pure decoupling can occur (dave - please verify this was your point) (bryan_att, 14:51:01)
    22. dneary: we should focus on the platform components and not apps running on the platform (bryan_att, 14:51:52)
    23. raynugent: the goals of the compliance program and the plugfest need to be decoupled (bryan_att, 14:52:25)
    24. hongbo (hongbo_, 14:53:15)
    25. Lincoln: the testfest should be collaborative and positive and result in more info acquired by the vendors rather than just a pass-fail measure (bryan_att, 14:54:51)
    26. on the bridge: HongBo, Trevor Cooper, Ashok Emani (Intel), Bin Hu, Bryan Sullivan, Chen Shuai, Chris Donley, Daniel Smith, Dave Neary, Julien, Lincoln Lavoie, Lingli, Michael, Mika R. (Nokia), Pierre Lynch, Ray Nugent, Ray Paik, Sajeev Manikkoth, Brian Skerry, Tetsuya Nakamura, Weidong Shao, Xiaoli Wang, Yang Jian (bryan_att, 14:56:41)
    27. Bryan will send the earlier note about model testing to the list for followup - it's a part of the test scenarios proposed (bryan_att, 14:57:43)
    28. trevor_intel: let's clarify what as a community we are providing thru the plugfest (bryan_att, 14:58:08)
    29. binhu: we need to clarify the scope by publishing detailed testplans by some milestone (bryan_att, 14:58:37)
    30. dneary: what can we get done by next week? (bryan_att, 15:00:43)
    31. trevor's slides will be put on the wiki with an etherpad link for further input (bryan_att, 15:01:38)
    32. dneary asks specifically what we intend to complete by next week (bryan_att, 15:02:38)
    33. Ray Nugent: an RSVP list, HW specifics, ... (bryan_att, 15:03:18)
    34. Bryan suggests to also collect test scenarios by next week (bryan_att, 15:04:17)
    35. hongbo: we have asked for input but with little response so far (bryan_att, 15:04:35)
