   1. Topology ID changed from “flow/1” to “openflow/1”; weather report generated for openflow plugin & dlux (abhijitkumbhare, 16:14:23)
   2. vishnoianil does not agree with the change as there are lot of dependent projects (abhijitkumbhare, 16:15:31)
   3. vishnoianil feels that there os no conclusive reason to change (shuva, 16:19:28)
   4. vishnoianil feels that having a config knob, a mechanism to change the name but have the default name to flow:1 (shuva, 16:20:05)
   5. vishnoianil this problem would ge tcomplex if we change the name since it would result in a domino effect (shuva, 16:21:01)
   6. since netvirt-->genius -->sfc would be affected in ways bcoz of this (shuva, 16:21:45)
   7. vishnoianil keeping flow:1 is reasonable, since the change will have cascading effects. (shuva, 16:22:49)
   8. keep flow:1 as the default name but have a knob to change it.. (shuva, 16:23:15)
   
   
3. Topology/inventory discussion (abhijitkumbhare, 16:26:55)

   2. The status of that effort is unknown (abhijitkumbhare, 16:29:32)
   3. abhijitkumbhare asking if there are other projects that are actually working on the new topology migration (shuva, 16:29:38)
   4. vishnoianil thinks if the move to the new topology is postponed by an year, we can consider moving from inventory to topology (abhijitkumbhare, 16:33:13)
   5. LuisGomez says this is a topic for the new TSC to figure out if they want all the ODL projects to migrate to new topology (abhijitkumbhare, 16:33:28)
