Meeting summary
---------------

* karaf and splitting l2switch address tracker  (colindixon, 20:49:04)
  * we need a bundle which proves addresses but *does not* push rules
    (colindixon, 20:49:24)
  * or depend on any bundles that automatically push rules  (colindixon,
    20:49:34)
  * after that, we can make a karaf feature which just includes the
    bundles we need  (colindixon, 20:50:10)

* AD-SAL APIs  (colindixon, 20:50:25)
  * colindixon sent mail listing the four APIs and who uses them
    (colindixon, 20:50:56)
  * see the log for the list  (colindixon, 20:51:37)
  * ACTION: evanz_ will go through VTN, controller, toolkit,
    sdninterfaceapp and see what subsets of the API they’re using
    (colindixon, 20:52:26)
  * one thing you could do would be to edit the interface to remove the
    functions you don’t want to implement, then build the other project
    with -nsu and see if you get compile errors  (colindixon, 20:53:15)
  * toolkit might be a pain in the ass because it’s embedded in an
    archetype  (colindixon, 20:54:38)
  * djx points out to also trust/use grep to start your search
    (colindixon, 20:55:06)
  * we’re planning to ignore affinity because they’re not participating
    in helium  (colindixon, 20:55:25)

    (colindixon, 20:57:14)
  * LINK:
    https://jenkins.opendaylight.org/controller/job/controller-merge/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/target/apidocs/org/opendaylight/controller/hosttracker/IfNewHostNotify.html
    (colindixon, 21:02:14)
  * IHostFinder is to send probes actively into the network, we should
    probably not implement that  (colindixon, 21:02:20)
  * IfHostListener was implemented by HostTracker and called by
    ArpHanlder (this is analogous to the address tracker today, skip it)
    (colindixon, 21:02:27)
  * IfNewHostNotify is the interface apps can implement to be notified
    when host show up or go away (we want to implement this)
    (colindixon, 21:03:08)
  * to implement it right, we need to figure out who implements that,
    but I don’t know how to do that from a bundle that doesn’t have the
    AD-SAL style activator  (colindixon, 21:08:42)
  * ACTION: colindixon to ask devinavery about getting services from an
    MD-SAL app and connect you guys with him  (colindixon, 21:09:13)

* keep working on the code we have  (colindixon, 21:10:15)
  * LINK: https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/9798/  (colindixon,
    21:10:25)
