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

* DaveL: intent is meant to be the "most" northbound interface (A true
  north bound interface? TNBI?)  (tbachman, 19:32:19)
* DaveL: now is a unique opportunity to get broad collaboration on a
  intent and if we don't have an urgent response we may miss the
  opportunity  (tbachman, 19:32:27)
* DaveL: need intent on at least two controllers to start snow ball
  effect.  (tbachman, 19:32:40)
* Pascal (MSFT): there is a thin SDN model and a thick SDN model. The
  difference is the separation of a "service" component from a low level
  mediation layer. Vendors are deploying both models today  (tbachman,
  19:32:49)
* (commentary from david: think it makes sense to have the same intent
  "syntax" in support of an abstract intent and a precise intent
  [mediation])  (tbachman, 19:32:59)
* LINK: irc://weber.freenode.net:6697/#info if an intent implementation
  will be over multiple domains (where there is a separate controller
  per domain) the goal would be to send the complete intent to each
  controller. In order to enable this each controller needs to be able
  to know what part of the intent they need to provide as well as know
  which "end points" it needs to use as an interconnect to another
  domain.  (dbainbri, 19:35:38)

* Does this mean there is somewhere a registry of both EP to controller
  and for each controller some way to lookup to which port the
  controller should use for the inter-connect?  (dbainbri, 19:36:52)
