Minutes:

  • Agenda bashing:

    • modeling glossary:

      • Kevin has started working on the gendoc templates

      • will first focus on class, datatypes and enumerations; would discuss whether to add attributes afterwards

    • ves spec update:

      • 7.1.1 update hasn't been finalized

      • current updates only have a minor affect on UML: modify association names, which is kind of "invisible" from the diagrams

      • would wait for spec to finalize first, then have a review for the updates on the UML diagram; could go for a quick review and approval if only association names are changed

  • Discussed items:

    • License model proposal:

      • the main problem is besides the SDC implementation, R6 also has a discussion for license use case, and the two are not aligned

      • Michela suggest to start with a discussion of use case before discussing models, to understand better how AT&T would like to have for license management in ONAP

      • Not all models in the current proposal are relevant for Ericsson and Nokia's use case, e.g., number of instances

      • what's the purpose of IM

        • document the implementation

        • design a common model that would be agreed by the community, i.e., drive future usage

      • vendor may prefer to have their own license management entity

      • next steps:

        • get service provider involvement

        • have a dedicate meeting to present E&N's proposal (no regular meeting for now)

        • utilize use case subcommittee calls for discussion, reach out to more service providers (like Orange); Timo could ask Alla

      • topics for modeling subcommittee:

        • use of stereotypes

        • different review process for models reflecting the implementation vs model for future design

    • Modeling Process:

      • no time for discussion

      • continue next week
