As some of you on this list may already know, there are issues in the
Neutron team with development resources on VPNaas and FWaaS, and there have
been discussions in Austin about deprecating the code from the main Neutron
codebase. The decision is currently that the code will remain for another 6
months, after which time if no dev resource has emerged, then they will be
deprecated.

I know there are operators relying on these functions, particularly in the
public cloud space in Europe, so this would impact those people. I also
know this list doesn't necessarily reach all of them either, so I will try
and reach out by other means as well, but it would be very useful to try
and get a clearer picture of how many people are using VPNaaS and FWaaS. If
you are, could you please respond to this thread ?

If we have metrics that a constituent part of the user community need these
functions, then we can try and find a way to help the Neutron team to cover
the resourcing gaps.
