The VNF API: Functions That a VNF Must or May Implement

<<TODO: This might be a pointer to NETCONF or ETSI specs, along with other OpenECOMP APIs. The Requirements documents above don't enumerate all functions in the API, but they might contain enough references to other documents to comprise the full description of functions that VNFs must implement. Or, delete this section in favor of the above two Requirements specifications, if they sufficiently document the API. >>
