  • Definition of Criteria for Decision making

    • Goals & Outcomes 

      • Original Intent was short term, however work appears to be longer term

      • Work is important, much support from Community

      • Disruption between CNTT/OPNFV due to scope creep

      • Need to have a full understanding of the responsibilities of CNTT in relationship to other LFN projects and the OPNFV.

      • Board has asked we make a decision

        • CNTT doesnt seem to have an official place in LFN, and looks as thou it wont go away

        • CNTT is consuming resources, thus Board whats to ensure work is supported

        • Governance? Not a strong
