[NOTE: These goals are a summary of community discussions at https://etherpad.opnfv.org/p/TSC-backlog] 

1. Address new use cases and hardware deployments (e.g. cloud native, Edge, C-RAN/vCO)
   
   1. Support cloud native apps in the reference platform (integrate and test Kubernetes & related components)
      
   2. Create/integrate Edge-specific stacks (e.g. Akraino, OpenStack Edge) and define & obtain appropriate hardware environments for testing them in Pharos and LaaS
      
   3. Create/integrate C-RAN and vCO specific stacks and test them on appropriate hardware environments in Pharos and LaaS
      
2. Re-evaluate, and if needed update & communicate, OPNFV's mission, deliverables and ways of working/processes
   
   1. Update our understanding of key user groups and their needs
   2. Identify which artifacts and deliverables OPNFV should produce
   1. Define a release process that addresses the needs of our key user groups
      
   2. Use lab resources more efficiently through dynamic resource allocation for CI pipeline
      
3. Refine
4. Maintaining a healthy community
   1. Continuing to have venues/events (both face-to-face and virtual) for OPNFV community members to collaborate effectively 
      
   2. Growing the contributor community
5. Continuous improvement in our processes & ways-of-working 
   
   1. OPNFV vision & evolution
   2. Release process overhaul (there maybe an updated view on OPNFV key deliverables & audiences based on maybe refined OPNFV vision/mission statement noted above)
   3. Dynamic hardware/lab resource allocation
6. Improving the OPNFV output/artifacts so that OPNFV is more use-case driven (e.g. for easier consumption, etc.)and easier to consume
   
   1. Scenario consolidation
   2. LaaS evolutionInvestigate an "Official" OPNFV installer?
   3. Better packaging/consumability of test tools
      
7. Closer collaboration with other LFN projects
   New initiatives for OPNFV (through e.g. cloud native, new HW environments incl. Edge, etc.)
8. Technical direction of OPNFV Verified Program

...

1. XCI, Lab-as-a-Service
   
2. Evolve the OPNFV Verified Program and support creation of LFN-level umbrella program
3. Maintain and grow our healthy community
   1. Continuing to have venues/events (both face-to-face and virtual) for OPNFV community members to collaborate effectively 
      
   2. Growing the contributor community

High-level budget needs:

• Two Plugfests/Hackfests
• Two developer summits (not counting ONS North America)
  
• Running cost of LF-hosted hardware (LF CI pods and servers for general IT)
• Software licenses for currently used IT services (git/Gerrit, Confluence/Jira, Bitergia, etc.)
• Project and IT support staff as current
