- Thinh Nguyenphu - Share an alternative Common CNF Packaging - postponed to March 9th - work on CNF packaging is running a bit behind schedule.
- ETSI is working on "CNFD", similar to the existing "VNFD" and "PNFD". A CNFD may be treated similarly to a PNFD, which is sort of a black-box, and handed over to another entity like K8S to orchestrate.
- Marian Darula commented - introducing a CNFD in addition to a VNFD creates a challenge for xNF vendors. Why not re-use the VNFD? Thinh Nguyenphu - CNFD orchestration is based on Helm charts and not TOSCA, hence a VNFD is not very useful for CNF orchestration.
- ETSI aims to separate resource orchestration (in the Helm chart) from application orchestration (in the CNFD).
- Marian Darula - There is urgency in finalizing the packaging - vendors need to deliver CNFs.

Action Items (In Progress)
- (Victor Morales/ Ranny Haiby): Setup additional follow-ups about CNF PDN Gateway
- (Seshu): Check if user-67d6f , Lei Huang , Yan Yang can join March 2nd, 2021 to discuss about OVP/ONAP & VNFSDK
- (Timo/Catherine): Promote 2021 goals from OVP program and collect any particular requirement through ONAP Requirement and TSC meetings
- (Kenny): Contact EUAG about any CNF badging requirement (OVP)
- (Thinh): Share the ETSI event link when it will be available
- (Thinh): Share an alternative (Common CNF Packaging) to what was proposed by Fernando Oliveira , Byung-Woo Jun
- (Olivier): Check with CNCF if any cross-meeting with ONAP could be scheduled
- (All): Collect feedback about our current CNF onboarding capabilities from 3rd party vendors
- (All): Build an ONAP proposition value to collaborate with XGVela Community
- (Seshu): Questions for XGVela
- It would be great to highlight more clearly the purpose of XGVela as a platform to build CNFs and get feedback from 3rd party vendors, who are today already creating CNFS for carriers, to assess the value proposition
- After the CNF is created via XGVela – can we then deploy the CNF on any Cloud environment without using XGVela at run-time?
- If we need XGVela then have we performed an analysis to demonstrate the value proposition vs K8S and its ecosystem?
- Build a slide to highlight how XGVela (i.e. create CNF) is complementary to ONAP (onboard CNF/orchestrate CNF, etc.) and how it will fit to the CNCF Landscape
- (All) Try to identify where we are on the CNCF Trail Journey - Needs clarification to comment, need to dig into the details of the actual ask.
