Yes, there are definitely touch points across a number of different existing projects and sub teams. The consensus seemed to be that while a lot of people in the community have been working in independent groups on advancing the support for NFV use cases in OpenStack we haven't necessarily been coordinating our efforts effectively. Hopefully having a cross-project sub team will allow us to do this.

In the BoF sessions we started adding relevant *existing* blueprints on the wiki page, we probably need to come up with a more robust way to track these from launchpad :). Further proposals will no doubt need to be built out from use cases as we discuss them further:

Feel free to add any blueprints from the Advanced Services efforts that were missed!

Thanks,
