In addition, we have fixed instability in unit and functional tests for +which we have troubles several times. As Tacker PTL, I've led the team by +proposing not only new features, but also things for driving the team such as +documentation or bug tracking. + +In Xena cycle, I would like to continue to make Tacker be more useful product +for users interested in NFV. I believe Tacker will be a good reference +implementation for NFV standard. We have planed to make Tacker more feasible not +only for VM environment, but also container to meet requirements from +industries. + +- Continue to implement the latest container technology with ETSI NFV standard. +- Introduce multi API versions to meet the requirements for operators enable to + deploy mixed environment of multi-vendor products in which some products + provide a stable version APIs while other products adopt move advanced ones. +- Proceed to design and implement test framework under development in ETSI NFV + TST to improve the quality of the product, not only unit tests and + functional tests, but also introduce more sophisticated scheme such as robot + framework. + +[1] https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/tacker/unreleased.html + +Regards, +Yasufumi Ogawa +IRC: yasufum
