<div>Hello all,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is anyone working on NATaaS?</div>
<div>I know we have some developer working on Router as a Service and they probably want to include NAT functionality but I have some interest in having NAT as a Service.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please, response is somebody is interested in having some discussions about it. </div>

<div dir="ltr">
<div>Hi All,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We had a VPNaaS meeting yesterday and it was felt that we should have a separate meeting to discuss the topics common to all services. So, in preparation for the Icehouse summit, I am proposing an IRC meeting on Oct 14th 22:00 UTC (immediately after the
Neutron meeting) to discuss common aspects related to the FWaaS, LBaaS, and VPNaaS.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We will begin with service insertion and chaining discussion, and I hope we can collect requirements for other common aspects such as service agents, services instances, etc. as well.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Etherpad for service insertion & chaining can be found here:<br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope you all can join.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
