Hi Nachi and other cores!

I'm very close to publishing my vendor based VPNaaS driver (service driver is ready, device driver is a day or two out), but have a bit of an issue. This code uses the Service Type Framework, which, as you know, is still out for review (and has been idle for a long time).  I updated the STF client code and it is updated in Gerrit.

I saw you put a -1 on your STF server code. Is the feature being abandoned or was that for some other reason?

If going forward with it, can you update the server STF code, or should I do it (I have a branch with the STF based on master of about 2 weeks ago, so it should update OK)?

Also, I'm wondering (worried) about the logistics of my reviews. I wanted to do my service driver and device driver separately (I guess making the latter dependent on the former in Gerrit). However, because of the STF, I'd need to make my service driver dependent on the STF server code too (my current branch has both code pieces). Really worried about the complexity there and about it getting hung up, if there is more delay on the STF review.

I've been working on another branch without the STF dependency, however that has to hack in part of the STF to be able to select the service driver based on config vs hardwired to the reference driver.

Should I proceed with the STF review chaining or push out my code w/o the STF?

Thanks!
