NFV 39: First completion of the stage-3 specs for containerized VNF lifecycle management by NFV-MANO framework and Preparation for NFV Release-6

Over 50 delegates participated to this 39^th meeting of ISG NFV which took place under the beautiful blue skies and very refreshing weather in the south of France. Although some of us were still unable to travel due to constraints caused by COVID-19. The face-to-face meetings resumed at the 39^th ISG meeting, and I am very happy to be back and able to meet with you face-to-face in the ETSI building.

The standardization discussions in each working group during the meeting week were very efficient and steady, taking full advantage of the face-to-face discussions. The number of contributions has increased since the last meeting due to the situation where the confusion by COVID-19 is calming down. Thanks to the standardization delegates for their hard work! Four new Work Items and 22 final drafts were approved and published between the previous meeting and the 39^th meeting.
