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

* is a service function (SF) an EP in terms of the intent interface?
  What about a service chain?  (dbainbri, 21:19:34)
* (david commentary, and if a SF is just a new EP inserted in between
  two other EPs, does this mean that we need to consider that an intent
  isn't a src and dest EPG, but a chain for EPGs ?)  (dbainbri,
  21:23:54)
* ONFs implementation plan is to provide shared (core) intent code in
  the ONF GIT repo and then have that leveraged in an ONOS and ODL
  implementation  (dbainbri, 21:29:37)
* ONF is funding INOCYBE to implement the core aspects of intent in ONF
  (dbainbri, 21:31:35)
* an end point registry is required and is shared state across all
  controllers (across domains)  (dbainbri, 21:42:53)
* also need a "registry" of domain interconnects  (dbainbri, 21:45:26)
* DaveL talking about a providing the intent engine a pool of resources
  (SF instances) and the controller picks an instance to build a SFC
  (dbainbri, 21:49:17)
* DavidB asks, if SF are EP, why not just use standard EP resolution as
  opposed to introduce a standard "resource pool concept"?  (dbainbri,
  21:50:16)
* there is a NBI sub group about service APIs  (dbainbri, 22:50:50)
* (david commentary: really unclear what the purpose is or what a
  service API subgroup is for if we are going down an intent API model.
  no value in an L3 VPN API model)  (dbainbri, 22:51:44)
* the NBI modeling group is developing API models for things like
  inventory and topology  (dbainbri, 23:00:33)
* NBI modeling group is a ONF subgroup of the NBI group, formally known
  as NBI framework and architecture  (dbainbri, 23:01:09)
* sess that ice cream is being served, ah the joys of technical
  conferences  (dbainbri, 23:19:40)



Meeting ended at 23:19:44 UTC.
