Thanks for your summary, Yuiko Takada. It is great. I want to give you some more comments as below.

>(4)Add Ironic-ipmiproxy server

>
>* Pros:

>- Output log file
>- IPMIShellinaboxConsole will be also available via Horizon

>* Cons: 
>- Need IPMIShellinaboxConsole changes?
>- Need to bump API microversion/RPC

* Pros:
- There is no influence to other components
- Output log file
- IPMIShellinaboxConsole will be also available via Horizon (backward compatibility)
- The proxy can serve across Ironic conductors (in case of multiple conductors)

* Cons:
- Need IPMIShellinaboxConsole changes (only add some code, no change the existing behaviors of it)
- Need to bump API microversion/RPC

For other specs, currently I don't have any comment due to the Yuiko Takada's summary is very detailed.

Best regards,
Dao Cong Tien

However, before the session, it would really be helpful if the folks with proposals got together and/or reviewed each other's proposals, and summarized their findings. You may find after reviewing the proposals, that eg only 2 are really different. Or they several have merit because they are addressing slightly different issues. That would make it easier to present/discuss/decide at the session.
